The correlation between parental control and student' self-esteem in a sample of 713 students was r = −0.19. the calculated t statistic was -4.178 for testing null hypothesis
Calculate an approximate P-value for testing H0 = 0 over the two-sided alternative .
Alpha = 0.05
df = n-2 = 713-2 = 711
alpha = 0.05
Null and Alternate Hypothesis
H0: ρ = 0 (No Correlation)
Ha: ρ <> 0 (Correlation is present)
Test Statistic
t = -4.178
p-value = TDIST(4.178,711,2) = 0.000033
Result
Since the p-value is less than 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis.

A psychologist wanted to assess the relationship between depression and self-esteem. She believes that as depression increases, self-esteem decreases. She asked a group of 25 participants to complete both Beck’s Depression Inventory (Beck, Ward, Mendelson, Mock, & Erbaugh, 1961) and Rosenberg’s Self-Esteem Scale (1965). The data for each participant is as follows: Depression (X) Self-Esteem (Y) 60 11 27 34 15 33 30 24 56 14 52 16 40 23 49 33 24 27 38 26 48 17 58 10...
Test for a positive correlation using the sample correlation r=0.33 and the sample size n=30. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Find the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places. t= Find the p-value. Round your answer to three decimal places. The p-value is . What is the conclusion, using a 5% significance level? ...
It appears that sons of fathers who display low self-esteem tend to develop low self-esteem as well. Kuya conducted a study to test this hypothesis, since he is pretty sure that there must be a difference between the two groups, with sons having higher self-esteem than their fathers. He measured the self-esteem of the fathers and their sons using the Fearful Insecure Neurotic Emotional (FINE) test. The higher the score, the lower is the self-esteem. Is there a significant difference?...
I need help finding a journal article. THE CORRELATION BETWEEN SELF-ESTEEM AND STUDENT READING ABILITY, READING LEVEL, AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT. ( Something along the lines of this topic will work) .

what is the sample statatics in the question “WHAT DOES THE
SAMPLE STATATICS SUGGEST ABOUT THE NULL HYPOTHESIS” mean? and what
is the general answer for that question?
Section 4: Testing Relationships: Correlation and Linear Regression Prediction Equations We wish to test the "linear correlation" coefficient p to see if 9. |As an example, we want to find out if| We set the significance level to 0.05. Ho Null hypothesis: What is the "alternative" hypothesis? Shape of the distribution of...
Can a pretest on mathematics skills predict success in a statistics course? The 82 students in an introductory statistics class took a pretest at the beginning of the semester. The least-squares regression line for predicting the score y on the final exam from the pretest score x was ŷ = 9.8 + 0.74x. The standard error of b1 was 0.41. (a) Test the null hypothesis that there is no linear relationship between the pretest score and the score on the...
Stating the Research and Null Hypotheses. What you are trying to prove is called the research hypothesis, or alternative hypothesis, and is symbolized by H1 (some books write it as Ha ). Research hypotheses are always expressed in terms of population parameters because we are interested in making statements about a population, based on sample statistics. The null hypothesis, or H0, contradicts the research hypothesis, and is usually a statement of no difference. In each of the following situations,...
Can a pretest on mathematics skills predict success in a statistics course? The 82 students in an introductory statistics class took a pretest at the beginning of the semester. The least-squares regression line for predicting the score y on the final exam from the pretest score x was ŷ = 9.4 + 0.78x. The standard error of b1 was 0.44. (a) Test the null hypothesis that there is no linear relationship between the pretest score and the score on the...
1-2. The sample of n = 30 people is selected and the sample correlation between two variables is r = 0.468. 1. What is the test statistic value for testing whether the true population correlation coefficient is equal to zero? (calculate t-test statistic) 2. What is the t- critical value for alpha= 0.01. and what you can conclude about population correlation ( is there significant correlation between two variables).
Use the sample correlation r=0.42 and the sample size n=25 to see if there is evidence that the population correlation between the two variables is different than zero. (a) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? (b) What is the test statistic? Round your answer to three decimal places (c) What are the degrees of freedom? Enter the exact answer. (d) What is the p-value. Round your answer to three decimal places. (e) What is the conclusion, using a 5%...
