Suppose that a researcher is interested in whether an exercise improves intelligence. The researcher randomly selects 100 participants, assigns them to an exercise program, and measures intelligence at the end of the exercise program. The measurement of intelligence has a known or assumed average score of μ = 100 and a known or assumed standard deviation of σ = 15 in the population.
The researcher should use a z-test hypothesis test to evaluate the treatment affected intelligence.
If σ and σ were unknown, the researcher should use a t-test .

A researcher wishes to determine if the use of iPads improves memory. Subjects will use the iPad regularly during a 10-week period of time. After this ten-week period, each subject has their memory tested using a standard memory test. Suppose the scores on this test of memory for all potential subjects using iPads follow a Normal distribution with mean μ and standard deviation σ = 6. Suppose also, that in the general population of all people, scores on the memory...

Some researchers claim that herbal supplements such as ginseng or ginkgo biloba enhance human memory. To test this claim, a researcher selects a sample of n = 25 college students. Each student is given a ginkgo biloba supplement daily for six weeks and then all the participants are given a standardized memory test. For the population, scores on the test are normally distributed with μ = 75 and σ = 5. The sample of n = 25 students had a...

We are interested in examining the IQ scores of college students versus the average population IQ. We take a sample of 25 college students and have them take the WAIS. Our sample of college students had an average WAIS of 110, and the known population mean for the WAIS is 100 with σ= 15. a. What type of statistical test should we conduct (z score, one sample t test, independent measures t test, repeated measures t test)? How do you...

1. It is known that the effect of giving amphetamine after brain damage is to reduce tissue necrosis (death). A researcher is interested in whether this effect translates into better behavioral performance. The researcher lesions the brains of a group of 9 rats with a chemical injected into their motor cortex to simulate a stroke. The researcher then randomly assigns rats to one of 3 conditions. In Condition A, the rats are given no other treatment. In Condition B, the...
