Question
This is the step1, so step 2 and step 3 and Step 4 must be answered. (Step 2: Test Statistic
-Pearson's r correlation coefficient AND Step 3: Critical Values, and Step 4: Solve For the test stat) so based it from the photo. The table shows the number of hours spend by 30 students in studing and their test scores. Solve for the Pearson’s r and interpret the results. Use 5% significance level.
Step 1: Null and Alternative Hypothesis
Ho: r = 0; There is no significant relationship between the number of hours spent studying and the students test scores.
Ha: r ≠ 0; There is a significant relationship between the number of hours spent studying and the students test scores.
Step 2: Test Statistic
-Pearson's r correlation coefficient
Step 3: Critical Values, Step 4: Solve For the test stat

The NES dataset contains spend8, which records the number of government policy areas where respondents think spending should be increased. Scores range from 0 (the respondent does not want to increase spending on any of the policies) to 8 (the respondent wants to increase spending on all eight policies). The NES, of course, polls a random sample of U.S. adults. In this exercise you will analyze spend8 using the mean and lincom commands. You then will draw inferences about the population mean. (Remember to specify nesw as the probability weight.) The spend8 variable has a sample mean of ______. Make sure you use [pw=nesw] so your results are nationally representative. There is a probability of .95 that spend8’s true population mean falls between a score of ______ at the low end and a score of ______ at the high end.

- Justin wants to know whether a commonly prescribed drug does improve the attention span of students with attention deficit disorder (ADD). He knows that the mean attention span for students with ADD who are not taking the drug is 2.3 minutes long. His sample of 12 students taking the drug yielded a mean of 4.6 minutes. Justin can find no information regarding σx , so he calculated s2x =1.96. a. Identify the independent and dependent variables. b. In a sentence, state the null hypothesis being tested. c. Using symbols, state the null and alternative hypotheses. d. Determine the critical region using a one-tailed test with alpha = .05. e .Conduct the hypothesis test (Do the math and compare the t-critical and t-obtained values). f. State your conclusions in terms of H0 (Should you reject the H0 or fail to reject/accept the H0). g.
