- EXPERIMENT 1 When a romantic relationship goes bad, both people experience emotional pain regardless of who was the initiator of the breakup. You believe that if you hypnotize people and tell them positive things about the future while under hypnosis, it will lessen the pain of a breakup. You put an advertisement in the newspaper looking for people who have recently broken up. From the people that answered your ad, a random sample of 20 individuals was taken and they were put into two groups of n=10. Members in each group were newly broken up less than 10 days. One group is hypnotized each day for seven days and told positive things about the future. The other group watched YouTube videos each day on how to deal with a breakup. After seven days, you give the participants a post breakup satisfaction questionnaire. Higher scores mean more satisfaction with their current situation of being broken up.

- Sociologists and sports psychologists have noticed that in many sports, the athletes who make it to the professional level in their respective sport were the older participants (that is, their birthdate is early in the “sport year”) in the sport as a youth. This phenomenon has been noticed around the world in various sports such as soccer (Europe), hockey (Canada), and baseball (USA). In youth baseball leagues the “sport year” begins on Aug. 1, so children born in August are the older participants. In a random sample of 250 major league baseball players born since 1975, 35 were born in the month of August. National demographic statistics show that 9% of births in the general population occur in August. Is there a higher percentage of professional baseball players born in August than in the general population? Use a 95% confidence interval to answer the question and explain.arrow_forwardAn average of 100 customers per hour arrive at GothamCity Bank.

- Once a year employees at a company are given the opportunity to join one of three pension plans, A, B, or C. Once an employee decides to join one of these plans, the employee cannot drop the plan or switch to another plan. Past records indicate that each year 9% of the employees elect to join plan A, 7% elect to join plan B, 20% elect to join plan C, and the remainder to not join any plan. (1) In the long run, what percentage of employees will elect to join plans A, B, and C? (2) On average, how many years will it take an employee to decide to join a plan? (1) % of employees will elect to join plan A. (Type an integer or decimal. Round to the nearest tenth.) % of employees will elect to join plan B. (Type an integer or decimal.
