Question
You run a regression for x predicting y and find the p-value to be .04. Which of the following can you say most comfortably?
a. Given the assumptions have been met, y significantly predicts x, but we can't be sure if it is important
b. None of these
c. Only 4% of the time would you expect to find a test statistic as extreme or more, assuming the null hypothesis is true
d. The finding indicates x strongly predicts y

- See attachmentarrow_forwardA vocational counselor uses the number of days without employment to predict her clients' feelings of self efficacy, measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with higher numbers meaning that clients feel more secure in their job related abilities. The slope of the regression line is –1.02. Which statement is the best interpretation for this finding? a. For every 1-point increase in self-efficacy, there is an associated decrease in the number of days of unemployment. b. For every additional day of unemployment, there is an associated decrease in self-efficacy of 1.02 points. c. The least number of days a person can be unemployed and still feel self-efficacious is 3.98 points d. The decrease in self-efficacy of 1.02 points is caused by each additional day of unemploymentarrow_forwardrepostarrow_forward
- A statistical analysis is internally valid if: O A. all t-statistics are greater than |1.96|. O B. the population is small, say less than 2,000, and can be observed. OC. the regression R² > 0.05. O D. the statistical inferences about causal effects are valid for the population studied.arrow_forwardConsider the following hypothetical regression: FRIES = 22.5 + 0.08*TRAFFIC + 9.1*COUPON? + -1.1*TEMP where FRIES is the number of pounds of fries a restaurant sells in a week, TRAFFIC is the number of people who walked by the restaurant that week (foot traffic), COUPON? is a dummy variable of if the restaurant offered a coupon or not that week (1=coupon, 0=no coupon); and TEMP is the average high that week, measured in Fahrenheit. All variables are statistically significant. If the average high is expected to be 4 degrees warmer next week, how should FRIES change? 1 Increase by 18.1 pounds 2 Decrease by 4.4 pounds 3 It is impossible to tell without knowing the values of TRAFFIC and COUPON?. 4 Increase by 4.4 pounds 5 Increase by 26.9 poundsarrow_forwardBelow table contains a data sample where X is the independent, and Y the dependent variable.
