Question
Suppose that we are testing a null hypothesis H0 about a population
proportion, using p-value techniques. If we are using a single set of data, which of the following are not
possible? (Select all that apply. You do not need to explain.)
(a) We reject H0 at the 0.10 significance level, and reject H0 at the 0.05 significance level.
(b) We reject H0 at the 0.10 significance level, and fail to reject H0 at the 0.05 significance level.
(c) We fail to reject H0 at the 0.10 significance level, and reject H0 at the 0.05 significance level.
(d) We fail to reject H0 at the 0.10 significance level, and fail to reject H0 at the 0.05 significance level

- A concerned group of citizens wanted to know if the proportion of armed robberies in Texas was different in 2011 than in 2010. Their research showed that of the 113,231 violent crimes in Texas in 2010, 7,622 of them were armed robberies. In 2011, 7,439 of the 104,873 violent crimes were in the armed robbery category.

- A. Suppose we want to test whether or not three means are equal. We want to perform this test with a 8% significance level.If we perform an ANOVA test, what is the probability of the test producing accurate results (avoiding a Type I error)? B. Suppose we, instead, run three separate hypothesis tests (t-tests), each with 8% significance level. Mean 1 = Mean 2Mean 1 = Mean 3Mean 2 = Mean 3What is the probability that all three tests would be accurate? C. Why is an ANOVA test more accurate than 3 different tests?arrow_forwardFor example, let's say that I have the following null hypothesis: "The population mean is equal to 5", and the alternative hypothesis: "The population mean is not equal to five". Then, I collect a sample from the population and after performing the hypothesis test I conclude at the 0.01 significance level: "Reject the null hypothesis", or in plain English "There is enough evidence to reject the claim that the population mean is equal to five". Then, am I proving that the population mean is not equal to five?arrow_forwardYou are conducting a hypothesis test where alternative (research) hypothesis is that mu is greater than 850. You are testing at the 0.01 significance level. You take a sample of size 64 and calculate your test statistic to be -1.50.

- Prof. Johnson conducts a hypothesis test on whether the proportion of all UBC students who bike to school (denoted as p) equals 30%. Specifically, Prof.Johnson has H0:p=0.3 versus HA:p≠0.3. He obtains a P-value of 0.01. On the other hand, Prof. Smith would like to test if there is sufficient evidence to support that p is greater than 0.3 at the 10% significance level. Based on Prof. Johnson's result, will the null hypothesis of Prof. Smith's test be rejected? A. There is insufficient information to tell.B. Yes.C. No.arrow_forwardLooking at youth depression scores from a general sample of random children in the US, we want to determine if our sample is significantly different than the national average of scores of children with depression in the US. The national average of scores on a measure of depression is 5 points. We have no reason to assume it will be higher or lower than the US national average. The sample: 11 9 12 3 3 4 13 1.

- A researcher looking for evidence of extrasensory perception (ESP) tests 1000 subjects. Forty-three of these subjects do significantly better (P < 0.05) than random guessing. Forty-three seems like a lot of people, but you cannot conclude that these 43 people have ESP. Why not? The statistical significance level is not be stringent enough to conclude an ESP status. Since the tests were performed at the 5% significance level, as many as 50 subjects may have done significantly better than random guessing just by chance. The sample size was not large enough for any statistical inference. The P-value needs to be below 0.025 to be considered statistically significant given the two-tailed nature of this type of test.arrow_forwardTest the claim that the mean GPA of night students is significantly different than 2 at the 0.01 significance level. The null and alternative hypothesis would be: Но: р > 0.5 Нo: 2 H1:p > 0.5 H1:µ # 2 H1:p+ 0.5 H1:µ 2 The test is: right-tailed left-tailed two-tailed Based on a sample of 55 people, the sample mean GPA was 2.05 with a standard deviation of 0.03 The p-value is: (to 2 decimals)arrow_forward30. A researcher had originally planned to collect a sample of size 200, and conduct a hypothesis test with a 5% significance level. Now, she has decided instead to collect a sample of size 300, and conduct a hypothesis test with a 1% significance level. How will this change affect the A probabilities of type I and type 2 error? The probability of type 1 error will decrease, and the probability of type 2 error will increase. The probability of both type 1 and type 2 error will decrease. The probability of type 1 error will decrease, but it's impossible to determine whether the probability of type 2 error will increase or decrease. The probability of type 1 error will increase, and the probability of type 2 error will decrease. The probability of type 2 error will decrease, but it's impossible to determine whether the probability of type 1 error will increase or decrease.arrow_forward
