Question
If right-eye and left-eye dominance are equally prevalent, what would you expect the numerical value of the parameter to be? Is this the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis? e. If people are more likely to be right-eye dominant than left, what can you say about the numerical value of the parameter? Is this the null hypothesis or the alternative hypothesis?

It’s very unlikely the results would have occurred just by chance alone. The sample statistic is smaller than the claimed population parameter. A mistake was made in terms of calculating the test statistic. The sample statistic is larger than the claimed population parameter.arrow_forward
- Section 11.2 Question #4 The table below includes results from polygraph (lie detector) experiments conducted by researchers. In each case, it was known if the subjected lied or did not lie, so the table indicates when the polygraph test was correct. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that whether a subject lies is independent of the polygraph test indication. Do the results suggest that polygraphs are effective in distinguishing between truth and lies? View the table Did the Subject Actually Lie? No (Did Not Lie) Yes (Lied) Polygraph test indicated that the subject lied. 9 48 Polygraph test indicated that the subject did not lie. 30 12 Determine the test statistic. χ2= _________ (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

These two statements are called the null and the alternative hypotheses. Usually, the researcher hopes the sample evidence will be in favor of the alternative hypothesis, the new theory. It is important to be able to state the theories that are being put to a test.
