A researcher wishes to know if there is a difference between pre-exercise body temperature and post-exercise body temperature in a sample of people. What type of test would you use to answer this?
A. Two sample, independent t test
B. One way ANOVA
C. Spearman Correlation
D.Paired t test
Paired t test
The paired sample t-test, sometimes called the dependent sample t-test, is a statistical procedure used to determine whether the mean difference between two sets of observations is zero.In a paired sample t-test, each subject is measured twice, resulting in pairs of observations.
Here we wish to test if there is a difference between pre-exercise body temperature and post-exercise body temperature in a sample of people.
That means two samples pre-exercise body temperature and post-exercise body temperature are dependent.

The researcher wants to know whether the pre-treatment blood pressure and post-treatment blood pressure differ significantly for the whole sample of subjects (regardless of which group they were assigned to). 1. What type of t test should be performed? 2. What is your rationale for selecting this t test? The researcher wants to know whether the female subjects and the male subjects differ significantly in the pre-treatment blood pressure (regardless of which group they were assigned for the experiment). 1....
A researcher conducts a study in which the population variance of difference scores between two groups is unknown. What type of t-test is most appropriate for this study? Question 6 options: one–independent sample t-test two–independent sample t-test related samples t-test There is not enough information to answer this question.
A) A researcher wishes to determine if there is an association between taking frequent breaks (minutes away from desk), certification status (yes/no), age (number of years) and reaching monthly productivity goals in the clinical documentation department (yes/no). What would be the appropriate test to use? a) Multiple Regression b) Logistic Regression c) Pearson's Correlation d) ANOVA Test B) A psychiatric nurse practitioner completes a study examining psychological distress scores, hours spent exercising, and number of counseling sessions to see if...

Assume a researcher wants to see if there are mean differences in body image between those who exercise in the front of an aerobic dance class vs. those who exercise at the back of the class. The researcher also wants to determine if the findings depend on whether the participants are male or female. What is the DV? What is the IV or IVs? How many levels of each IV? What are the three research questions that will be asked?...
A medical researcher wants to determine whether a drug changes the body’s temperature. Seven test subjects are randomly selected, and the body temperature (in degrees Fahrenheit) of each is measured. The subjects are then given the drug and after 20 minutes, the body temperature of each is measured again. The results are listed below. Use significance level α = 0.05, and we assume that the body temperatures are normally distributed. Show your work space provided below: t-Test: Paired Two Sample...
A researcher is interested in whether a person’s gender is related to their favorite subject in school. The researcher records how many male and female participants are in the study and whether they prefer English, Math, or Science. A. What type of study design is this (descriptive, correlational, or experimental)? B. What would be the appropriate statistical analysis to use in that situation (Chi-Square, Pearson correlation, one sample t-test, paired samples t-test, independent samples t-test, or ANOVA)?
1. A researcher wants to determine if there is a relationship between number of classes students are enrolled in (1,2,3,4,5,etcc.) and stress level scores (measured on a multi-item Likert scale). What type of statistical test should be used? 2. A researcher is interested in learning more about the protective effects of exercise. He conducts a study where he collects information about stress levels (measured on a multi-item Likert scale) and hours of exercise completed in a week (1,2,3,4,etc.,etc.). What type...
A researcher wants to know if there is a difference between 12th graders and 9th graders on the ABC memory test. What is the direction for this research hypothesis? Choices: one-tailed two-tailed no direction No answer text provided.
Suppose a researcher is interested in answering the following question: Is there a difference between the mean body temperatures for men and women? He collects data on body temperature and gender from a random sample of 130 men and women. The data collected is shown in the table below. Calculate a 95% confidence interval to answer the researcher’s question. Mean Standard Deviation Sample Size Males 98.105 0.699 65 Females 98.394 0.743 65 (A) Are the criteria for the t-distribution met?...
