- A study was conducted to determine whether magnets were effective in treating pain. The values represent measurements of pain using the visual analog scale. Assume that both samples are independent simple random samples from populations having normal distributions. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that those given a sham treatment have pain reductions that vary more than the pain reductions for those treated with magnets.

- Under what circumstances is a t statistic used instead of a z-score for a hypothesis test? 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. Determine the critical region using a one-tailed test with alpha = .05. Conduct the hypothesis test (Do the math and compare the t-critical and t-obtained values). State your conclusions in terms of H0 (Should you reject the H0 or fail to reject/accept the H0). Based on your analysis, is there a relationship between the drug and attention span?arrow_forwardFil 10.

To assess its effect on body weight, weights are measured before starting the supplementation and then after 6 weeks. The data are shown below. Is there a significant increase in body weight following supplementation? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Demonstrate the five steps for hypothesis testing and explain your results.
