The researcher from the Annenberg School of Communications is interested in studying the factors that influence how much time people spend talking on their smartphones. She believes that gender might be one factor that influences phone conversation time. She specifically hypothesizes that women and men spend different amounts of time talking on their phones. The researcher conducts a new study and obtains data from a random sample of adults from two groups identified as women and men. She finds that...

Describe a study in which you can use both nonparametric and parametric statistics. A researcher has participants expecting to receive either painful or mild electrical shocks during a study wait in a quarter-full waiting room with other participants. He then measures whether they choose to sit next to other participants or if they sit far away on their own. What is the best test to run for this study and why?

Answer the following parts: Aerobic dancing study: A researcher wants to know which exercise program is more effective in reducing body mass index (BMI) in 60 to 70 year-old individuals with diabetes: 1) a 20 minute aerobic dancing program or 2) a 20 minute walking program. The participants in the research project will be 60 volunteers living in a large gated retirement community. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the aerobic dancing group or the walking group. Participants will exercise...

A researcher intended to investigate the potential difference in BMI between men and women. He also tried to evaluate the effectiveness of a new physical exercise program in reducing BMI. Table 1 summarized the BMI data. At the beginning of the study (Day 0), 64 men and 49 women were included in the study and their BMI values were measured (defined as BMI_M0 and BMI_F0, respectively). After joining the new physical exercise program for 180 days, the participants’ BMI values...

1 A researcher wants to find out which type of classroom instruction significantly improves students’ test performance. He designed four types of instruction for four samples of students. Later all four samples were given the same test and their average performance was compared. What statistical test should be used by the researcher to analyze the results of this study? A. Pearson correlation B. t-test for independent groups C. one-factor Anova for between groups D. Chi2 for Independence 2 A researcher...

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 26.2 with a standard deviation...
