7. What do statistically significant findings imply? |
|
The results are very important |
|
The results are not very important |
|
The results are likely due to chance differences among groups |
|
The results are likely due to real differences among groups |
Answer:The results are likely due to real differences among group.
P value: Itbis probability of committing type 1 error or false positive error.
P valur of 0.03 means probability of difference being because of chance and not because of true difference is 3%.
Alpha value: it is complement of level of confidence or level of significance of study
By convention we will keep level of confidence as 95%.
Alpha acts like test criteria or cut off value which we accept or reject null hypothesis..
If P value of study< alpha: we reject null hypothesis and we declare the result as statistically significant.
Statistically significant result is a result that is not attributed to chance.
It also means that there is good chance that we are right in finding that a relationship exists between two variables.

In a study, researchers randomly assigned 500 people to the “treatment group” and the other 500 to the “control (or placebo) group”. A statistically significant difference was reported between the responses of the two groups with p-value < 0.005. What is the best conclusion? A. There is little evidence that the treatment has any effect. B. Here is strong evidence that the treatment is effective. C. Using a 5% significance level, we can conclude that the treatment was not effective,...
The results of a study examining the effectiveness of two instructional strategies indicated a statistically significant difference between the means of the two treatment groups on an achievement test. Which of the following is a reasonable conclusion? a. We can be 95% confident one instructional strategy is better than the other. b. The difference between the two instructional strategies is meaningful. c. It is likely one instructional strategy is more effective. d. Both instructional strategies are equally effective.
When a researcher reports that a result is statistically significant, what does this mean? A. The result does not contain a Type I or Type II error. B. The obtained result likely was not the result of chance. C. The result is important and clinically meaningful. D. The result did not fall within the critical region on the sampling distribution.
Help me please One method of research is to study a subset (sample) of the population and try to make inferences about the population. O True False D Question 13 1 pts The critical region(s) for the above hypothesis (question #12) would be contained in two tails in the distribution. O True O False Question 14 1 pts The z-test is used if the researcher knows pand o in a normally distributed population. O True O False Question 15 1...
What is the difference between staristical significance and clinical significance ? Explain why statistically significant results in a study do not always mean that the study is clinically significant . Provide an example .
Let's illustrate the idea of a sampling distribution in the case of a very small sample from a very small population. The population is the scores of 10 students on an exam, shown in the table Student 4 10 Score 94 638145727265517559 The parameter of interest is the mean score μ in this population. The sample is an SRS of size n = 4 drawn from the population. The Simple Random Sample applet can be used to select simple random...
a) By direct substitution determine which of the following functions satisfy the wave equation. 1. g(x, t) = Acos(kx − t) where A, k, are positive constants. 2. h(x, t) = Ae where A, k, are positive constants. 3. p(x, t) = Asinh(kx − t) where A, k, are positive constants. 4. q(x, t) = Ae where A, a, are positive constants. 5. An arbitrary function: f(x, t) = f(kx−t) where k and are positive constants. (Hint: Be careful with...
During a very quick stop, a car decelerates at 7.8 m/s2. Assume the forward motion of the car corresponds to a positive direction for the rotation of the tires (and that they do not slip on the pavement). Randomized Variablesat = 7.8 m/s2 r = 0.29 m ω0 = 93 rad/s Part (a) What is the angular acceleration of its tires in rad/s2, assuming they have a radius of 0.29 m and do not slip on the pavement? Part (b)...
We have a regression equation: I) (restricted form , ) We want to do a Ramsey-Reset test and form the alternative hypothesis that the true functional form of the regression is: II) But in our econometrics class it is said that due to the inclusion of in the alternative form (unrestricted form) we say that this regression can not be estimated and its estimators can not be found. It is said that the reason behind it is multicollinearity and by...
