Test the hypothesis of the given problem using the steps discussed previously.
A survey was conducted to determine the proportion of professionals and nonprofessional respondents who are in favor of using the biometrics system for the national elections. It has been found out that 125 out of 150 professional respondents are in favor, and 75 out of 100 nonprofessionals are also in favor of the biometrics system. Is there a significant difference between the proportions of professionals and non-professionals who favor the system? Use 2.5% level of significance.
Suppose a one-way Chi-square test has degrees of freedom (df) = 4. How many categories or 'items' were used to classify the individuals in the sample?A. 5B. 3C. 4D. 2
8. Suppose a sample of 300 participants is classified into one of 4 categories or 'items'. If the results are analyzed with a one-way Chi-square test, what degrees of freedom (df) value should be used?A. 5B. 4C. 2D. 3
9. Suppose a researcher used a sample of 200 participants to determine if there is a significant preference between 4 flavors of yogurt. Each individual tastes all 4 flavors and then selects his/her favorite. If the data are evaluated with a one-way Chi-square test using the .05 level of significance, how large does the calculated value need to beto reject the null hypothesis (remember to round off all decimals to 2 places)?

- What is an experiment?arrow_forwardDr. Mackintosh believes a new olfactory therapy would be more successful in promoting weight loss among obese patients. His patients are first weighed and then randomly assigned to olfactory therapy, dance therapy, or a control condition. At the end of the three weeks, the amount of weight lost is recorded. The results indicate no significant difference in the amount of weight lost between the three conditions. If true differences existed between the conditions, but they were not detected, what kind of error occurred?arrow_forwardA medical researcher wishes to try three different techniques to lower cholesterol levels of patients with high cholesterol levels. The subjects are randomly selected and assigned to one of three groups. Group 1 is given medication, Group 2 is given an exercise program, and Group 3 is assigned a diet program. At the end of six weeks, each subject's cholesterol level is recorded. Find the test statistic F to test the hypothesis that there is no difference among the means. Use α=0.05.

The drug is safe, with no side effects. An experiment is conducted in which 8 randomly selected subjects are given the drug and then given a short time to memorize a list of 10 words. The subjects are then tested for retention 15 minutes after the memorization period. The number of words correctly recalled by each subject is as follows: 8,9,10,6,8,7,9,7. Over the past few years, the psychologist has collected a lot of data using this task with similar subjects and has obtained a mean of 6 words correctly recalled (the data were normally distributed). I cannot remember - what I need to do with these outputs to determine statistical significance? and where I need to read to know the effect size?
