Professor Adams wrote a book called Improving Your Memory. The professor claims that if you follow the program outlined in the book, your memory will definitely improve. Fifteen people took the professor's course, in which the book and its program were used. On the first day of class, everyone took a memory exam; and on the last day, everyone took a similar exam. The paired scores for each person follow.

Last exam 223 122 117 274 89 77 112 207 91 132 173 113 217 289 71
First exam 171 116 116 209 66 87 168 199 77 111 143 19 196 242 91

Use a 0.01 level of significance to test the null hypothesis that the scores are the same whether or not people have taken the course against the alternate hypothesis that the scores of people who have taken the course are higher.

rank-sum test
runs test    
sign test
spearman correlation test
 
answer: sign test

(b) Give ?.
answer: 0.01
 
(c) Find the sample test statistic. (Use 2 decimal places for the value of x in your calculations. Use 2 decimal places for your answer.)


(d) For the sign test, rank-sum test, and Spearman correlation coefficient test, find the P-value of the sample test statistic. For the runs test of randomness, find the critical values from Table 10 of Appendix II. (Use 4 decimal places.)
