Question 1. Thirty graduate students were asked how many credit hours they were taking in the current quarter. Download the available data: Calculate the mean, median, standard deviation, variance, and range for this sample using Excel. Write a sentence explaining what each measure means. What is the standard error of the mean based on the data? What would be the best point estimate for the population credit hours? (“Population” refers to all graduate students’ credit hours in the universe.) What is the 95% confidence interval for the means of credit hours? What is the 90% confidence interval?

A class survey in a large class for first-year college students asked, "About how many hours do you study in a typical week?". The mean response of the 451 students was x¯¯¯x¯ = 15 hours. Suppose that we know that the study time follows a Normal distribution with standard deviation 9 hours in the population of all first-year students at this university. What is the 99% confidence interval (±±0.001) for the population mean? Confidence interval is from_____ to ____ hours.

4. A survey asked a random sample of 363 first-year students how many hours they studied during a particular week. The mean was 15.3 hours. Suppose we know that the population standard deviation is 8.5 hours. Construct a 90%, 95% and 99% confidence interval for the mean study time of all first year students at this university. Interpret the 90% confidence interval.

Research question: In the population of all American adults, how strong is the relationship between age and reaction time? Data were collected from a representative sample of 500 American adults concerning their ages (in years) and reaction times (in milliseconds). What procedure should be used to estimate the strength of this relationship in the population? CI for single mean CI for single proportion CI for difference in means CI for difference in proportions CI for correlation 2Research question: To what...

Two researchers conducted a study in which two groups of students were asked to answer 42 trivia questions from a board game. The students in group 1 were asked to spend 5 minutes thinking about what it would mean to be a professor, while the students in group 2 were asked to think about soccer hooligans. These pretest thoughts are a form of priming. The 200 students in group 1 had a mean score of 21.4 with a standard deviation...
