REAKFAST AND TEST SCORES 1 of 4 What type of test should this researcher use? Conventional wisdom says that eating a healthy breakfast can improve your health and your weight, but can it also affect your test scores? In order to test this, a school program convinces a group of students to skip breakfast one morning before taking a Basic English test. Eighteen students received breakfast before taking the test, and twenty-one students did not eat breakfast and recorded their performance on the English test. What type of research test should this researcher use? Their results are as follows:

Two Different Depression Scales Example 1.28 introduces a study examining the impact of diet on depression. The study used two different ways to measure depression. One is the DASS (Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale) which uses self-reported symptoms, while the other is the CESD (Centre for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale), which is a more involved clinical assessment. On both scales, higher numbers indicate greater depression symptoms.We are interested in whether we can use the self-reported data as a good predictor of clinical results (and hence a good starting point for patients). Figure below shows a scatterplot of the two depression scores for each of the 75 participants at the start of the diet/depression experiment (before the effect of any dietary intervention.) 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 10 20. 30 40 50 60 Self-reported (a) Does the association appear to be positive or negative? (b) Describe, in the context of this situation, the characteristics of a case in each of the…

Empathy among police officers influences how they interact with citizens and the likelihood that they receive complaints. Gender differences in levels of empathy in the general population are not large but male and female officers have been shown to have different interaction styles with the public; this may be due to the different empathy levels. After sampling officers and measuring their levels of empathy you find the following data.   Males       Females   n = 6 n = 9 M = 31 M = 45 SS = 490 SS = 680   If you were going to make gender comparisons like this, which option would be the correct choice?  Write A or B in the box. [a]            Option A. Independent-measures t-test            Option B. Repeated-measures t-test

You are a senior in the agricultural sciences department of NCSU doing an internship at a local dairy farm. Farmer Bill is an expert dairy farmer but has no background in quantitative decision making. Bill claims that the milk produced by his grass-fed Jersey cattle has higher protein content than the milk made by his grain-fed Jersey cattle. His evidence? He says he can taste the difference. You decide to put Bill's claim to the test. You randomly sample 21 grass-fed Jersey cattle and 18 grain-fed Jersey cattle, independently of one another, and obtain a sample of milk from each cow. Both histograms appear approximately normal. You test Ho : 4 = H2 VS. HA : H1 > 2. where 4 is the true mean protein content of milk produced by grass-fed Jersey cattle and-u, is that for the grain-fed cattle. Your test statistic is 1.98. Based on this information, which of the following is true ? Select one or more: O a. The sample mean protein content for the milk samples from the grass-fed cattle you…
