In Annie's experiment, she compared the scores of a set of 20 individuals before and after taking a drug. Her obtained statistic is 1.58. She's interested in finding a statistically significant difference. Alpha level is 0.05. What is the critical value?
Ans :
Using the critical value calculator ,
The critical value is = 2.093
Dear student,
I have given my 100% to solve your query. Can you please rate me.
Thanks

4. A physician wants to compare the blood pressures of six patients before and after treatment with a drug. The blood pressures are as follows: Patient 1 2 3 4 5 6 Before Drug 168 171 182 167 174 170 After Drug 171 170 180 173 178 172 The physician wants to test if there is a significant change of the blood pressure before and after taking the drug at 0.05 level of significance. The absolute value of the test...
A researcher wishes to know if the data she has collected provide sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in mean serum uric acid level between normal individuals and individuals with Down' s syndrome. The data consist of serum uric acid readings on 12 individuals with Downâ€s syndrome and 15 normal individuals. The mean serum uric acid for individuals with Down's syndrome is 4.5 mg/100 ml and SD = 1 and the mean serum uric acid level for normal individuals is...

ECON 3789 Assignment 2 Name: 3. Test scores. A test on world history was given to a group of individuals before and also after a film on the history of the world was presented. The results are given in the Assignment 2 Excel data file under Test Scores. We want to determine if the film significantly increased the test scores. Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test, using a 5% alpha level (let the difference be d after-before). Step 1: Hypotheses Step...
Dr. Rulet is an expert in addictive behaviors. One day it occurred to her that perhaps mathematic efficiency is related to gambling addiction. Therefore, she instructed her lab to test a handful of known gambling-addicted individuals on both the SAT mathematics section and the Gambling-related Addiction Behavior (GAB) scale. When Dr. Rulet thought about this possible relationship between mathematic efficiency and gambling addiction, she reasoned that those who are good at mathematics might be more inclined to use their ability...
A language psychologist is interested in whether or not bilingualism causes people to have enhanced word vocabulary on their first language. (That is the language that they learned in their family setting from infancy.) She collects as set of 400 obscure words [words that are not part of their everyday lives] her participants’ first language. She tests 45 bilingual people and counts the number of words from this list they define correctly. Data Bilinguals Monolinguals Observed 30 15 From a...
Attempts:Keep the Highests 4. Sample size, statistical significance, and practical importance Cities across the country are passing higher minimum wages, increasing the discrepancy between the wages in the dity and those in the suburbs. Suppose you are interested in the relationship between unemployment duration in the city and the surrounding suburbs in areas where the dites have minimum wages that are at least $3 higher than the minimum wages of the surrounding suburbs. The results are shown in the following...
We wish to see if the dial indicating the oven temperature for a certain model oven is properly calibrated. Four ovens of this model are selected at random. The dial on each is set to 300°F, and after one hour, the actual temperature of each is measured. The temperatures measured are 305°, 310°, 300°, and 305°. Assume that the distribution of the actual temperatures for this model when the dial is set to 300° is Normal. To test if the...
