Researchers report that people move from home to home frequently as children tend to have lower than average levels of well-being as adults. To further examine this relationship, a psychologist obtains a sample of n = 12 young adults who each experienced 5 or more different homes before they were 16 years old. These participants were given a standardized well-being questionnaire for which the general population has an average of score of µ = 40, The well-being scores for this sample are as follows: 38, 37, 41, 35, 42, 40, 33, 33, 36, 38, 32, 39   a. On the basis of this sample, is well-being for frequent movers significantly different from well-being in the general population? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05.    b. Computed the estimated Cohen’s d to measure the size of the difference.      c. Write a sentence showing how the outcome of the hypothesis test and the measure of effect size would appear in a research report.

A food-frequency questionnaire is used to measure dietary intake. The respondent specifies the number of servings of various food items they consumed over the previous week. The dietary cholesterol is then quantified for each respondent. The researchers were interested in assessing if there was an association between dietary cholesterol intake and high blood pressure. In a large sample of individuals who had completed the questionnaire, 250 persons with a high dietary cholesterol intake (greater than 300 mg /day) were selected and 250 persons with a low dietary cholesterol intake (less than 300 mg/day) were selected. The 500 selected participants had their medical history taken and were classified as having normal or high blood pressure. The data are given here.

st is 22. Oishi and Shigehiro (2010) report that people who move from home to home frequently as children tend to have lower than average levels of well-being as adults. To further examine this relationship, a psychologist obtains a sample of n = 12 young adults who each experienced 5 or more different homes before they were 16 years old.

. Do patients with gastrointestinal issues experience more psychological distress than the general population?   The DASS-21 questionnaire is a validated measure of depression, anxiety, and stress. For the general population, the mean for anxiety is µ = 4.2. Anxiety levels are calculated based on self-reported answers to questions on a scale from 0 through 42, with lower scores indicating lower anxiety.   Participants with gastrointestinal issues (specifically inflammatory bowel disease, IBD) completed the DASS-21. Use the data presented below to determine whether having gastrointestinal issues like IBD significantly increases risk for anxiety. Test whether or not the performance of this sample is significantly higher than the normal population using the proper t-test.  Here are the data:   Anxiety scores: 12, 15, 10, 8, 10, 5, 10, 13, 4, 6   ANALYSES AND UNGRADED OPTIONAL GUIDING QUESTIONS: 1a.
