They assess 31 psychology majors using an overall psychology assessment and calculate a mean score of 20.91 and a standard deviation of 1.63. They know the general population has a mean score on this test of 18.32. The students think that psychology majors will know more about psychology than the general population. Name the: 1) independent variable 2) scaling for independent variable 3) dependant variable 4) scaling for dependent variable Answer the following questions: 5) can random Selection be used, explain 6) can random assignment be used, explain 7) based on what you know what statistical test should the students use to examine their hypothesis? 8) why is that test most appropriate? 9) what are the assumptions of this test? 10) what is the Null and alternative hypothesis? 11) what is/are the…arrow_forwardTen children took part in a study at their dentist’s office. The dentist collected data on how many pieces of candy the children ate after Halloween and the number of cavities six months later. A correlation was conducted between pieces of candy consumed after Halloween and number of new cavities after Halloween. The Pearson correlation was .892, with p < .001. What can you conclude about the relationship between pieces of candy consumed after Halloween and the number of new cavities after Halloween?

- The mean number of sick days an employee takes per year is believed to be about 10. Members of a personnel department do not believe this figure. They randomly survey &8 employees. The number of sick days they took for the past year are as follows: 12; 6; 15; 3; 10; 8; 8; 8. Let X= the number of sick days they took for the past year. Should the personnel team believe that the mean number is about 10? Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level. What is the test statistic? (If using the z distribution round your answers to two decimal places, and if using the t distribution round your answers to three decimal places.) What is the p-value? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean. Sketch the graph of the situation. Label the point estimate and the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval.

It has been determined that as long as the mean temperature of the discharge is at most 150F, there will be no negative effects on the river's ecosystem. To investigage whether the plant is in compliance with regulations that prohibit a mean discharge water temperature above 150F, researchers will take 50 specimens at randomly selected times and record the temperature of each specimen. The resulting data will be used to test the hypotheses:H0:μ≤150FH0:μ≤150F Ha:μ>150FHa:μ>150F.(a) In the context of this problem, describe Type I and Type II errors.Type I Error:Select an answer A Type I error is not obtaining convincing evidence that the mean water temperature is greater than 150F when in fact it is greater than 150F.
