A group of students in Methods of Social Research wanted to study the relationship between GPA and participation in athletics among ENC traditional undergraduates. Other researchers have found that students involved in Division III athletics often have higher GPAs than the rest of the student body, so the group of students in Methods wanted to know whether this was true for ENC students. They were able to gather data on 160 ENC students (80 athletes and 80 non-athletes) and found that, among this group, the 80 athletes had slightly higher GPAs on average than the 80 students who were not athletes.
In this study, who makes up the sample? Who makes up the population?
Suppose they found in the sample data that the overall GPA for ENC athletes was 3.35 and for the ENC non-athletes was 3.21. Are these statistics or parameters?
Using the Tukey HSD test: what is the HSD for group 1 (ore dock) vs. group 2 (black rocks) ?
What is the HSD for group 1 ( ore dock) vs. group 3 (barrel &beam) ?
What is the HSD for group 2 vs. group 3 ?
A researcher is trying find out which of the 3 Vaccine types and age groups has the highest immune response via antibody titer. You assign different municipalities to a combination of age groups (i.e., 18-30, 31-50, 51-75 y.o.) and Vaccine type (i.e., Vaccine 1, 2, 3) and took the antibody titer measurements of the participants after 2 weeks of vaccine inoculation.
Given this scenario, what particular statistical tool will you use to know if vaccine type and age group have an effect on average antibody titer? Why? Explain thoroughly.

Suppose in a representative sample, 344 of 430 girls and 369 of 450 boys score at proficient or advanced levels on a standardized math test. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table)Let p1 represent the population proportion of girls and p2 the population proportion of boys.a. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the population proportions of girls and boys who score at proficient or advanced levels. (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) b. Select the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses to test whether the proportion of girls who score at proficient or advanced levels differs from the proportion of boys.multiple choice 1 H0: p1 − p2 = 0; HA: p1 − p2 ≠ 0…arrow_forwardResearch indicates that the color red increases men's attraction to women (Elliot & Niesta, 2008). In the original study, men were shown women's photographs presented on either a white or a red background. Photographs presented on red were rated significantly more attractive than the same photographs mounted on white. In a similar study, a researcher prepares a set of 30 women's photographs, with IS mounted on a white background and 15 mounted on rcd. One picture is identified as the test photograph and appears twice in the set, once on white and once on red. Each male participant looks through the entire set of photographs and rates the attractiveness of each woman on a 10-point scale. The following table summarizes the ratings of the test photograph for a sample of n = 9 men. Are the ratings for the test photograph significantly different when it is presented on a red background compared to a white background? Use a two-tailed test with alpha = .01. participant whitebackground…arrow_forward

A sub-carrier can be classified as either a data subcarrier (used for data transmissions), a pilot subcarrier (used for channel estimation and synchronization), or a null subcarrier (used for direct current and guard banks transmitting no signal). In a sample of 1,024 subcarrier signals transmitted off the coast of Martha’s Vineyard, 672 were determined to be data subcarriers, 256 pilot subcarriers, and 96 null subcarriers. Suppose a communications engineer who works near Martha’s Vineyard believes that fewer than 70% of all subcarrier signals transmitted in the area are data subcarriers. Is there evidence to support this belief? Test using a significance level of .05. Write all steps.arrow_forwardThere is a theory that music increases productivity of workers. The new vice president formanufacturing operations, however, believes that music can distract the workers’concentration. To prove his point, he requested the operations manager to conduct anexperiment for one week and find out if music indeed has an effect on workers’ productivity.Two groups of assembly line workers were randomly assigned to the three music conditions(without music, and with light instrumental). Furthermore, the average productivity ofworkers during the week prior to the experiment was obtained as baseline data. Thefollowing data were reported. Test the null hypothesis that productivity is the same foremployees who listen to music and those who do not. Test also the null hypothesis thatthere is no difference in the productivity of individual workers before and after listening tomusic while at work. Test both null hypotheses at α = .05.arrow_forward
- A car dealer randomly selects 24 automatic cars and 21 manual cars to compare the fuel efficiency of the engines. A dotplot of the data is shown below, where each dot represents the fuel efficiency of one car (km/l) in the sample (greater fuel efficiency is indicated by larger numbers). Choose TWO options that best describes what the graph tell you about the fuel efficiency of the cars in the sample: a) fuel efficiency for manual cars is positively skewed. b) manual cars have the higher median fuel efficiency. c) the least fuel efficient car in the sample is manual. d) the most fuel efficient car in the sample is automatic. e) automatic have the larger range. d) fuel efficiency for manual cars is negatively skewed.arrow_forwardA survey was conducted in respect of marital status and success inexaminations.
