A health psychologist hypothesizes that patients in the hospital
have white coat hypertension. White coat hypertension is when
patients grows anxious when a person with a white coat and
stethoscope walks into the examination room. To investigate, the
psychologist randomly selects patients in a hospital that have come
in for various minor ailments. During this visit the doctor either
wears a white coat or a non-white sport coat. The patients are then
asked to come in the next week for a follow-up. At the follow-up,
the doctor wears the opposite of what s/he wore during the first
visit. Below are the systolic pressures of the patients at each
visit. What can the psychologist conclude with an α of
0.05?
white coat |
non-white sport coat |

a) What is the appropriate test statistic?
---Select--- na z-test One-Sample t-test Independent-Samples t-test
Related-Samples t-test
b)
Condition 1:
---Select--- the hospital systolic pressure white coat minor
ailments non-white sport coat
Condition 2:
---Select--- the hospital systolic pressure white coat minor
ailments non-white sport coat
c) Compute the appropriate test statistic(s) to
make a decision about H0.
(Hint: Make sure to write down the null and alternative hypotheses
to help solve the problem.)
p-value = ; Decision: ---Select---
Reject H0 Fail to reject H0
d) Using the SPSS results,
compute the corresponding effect size(s) and indicate
magnitude(s).
If not appropriate, input and/or select "na" below.
d = ; ---Select--- na trivial
effect small effect medium effect large effect
r2 = ; ---Select--- na
trivial effect small effect medium effect large effect
e) Make an interpretation based on the
results.
Patients are more significantly anxious with the doctor wearing a white coat.Patients are more significantly anxious with the doctor wearing a non-white sport coat. Patients show no significant anxious difference with the doctor wearing a white coat or non-white sport coat.
