- What is the scenario when performing an independent Sample t Test is required?
- Assume that a researcher interested in growth spurts among young teens decided to measure the height difference between boys and girls in middle school from a random sample of 200 boys and girls. In this study, what are the two variables of interest and which of the two variables is dependent variable and the other is the dependent variables?
- In the above scenario, state the null and the alternative hypotheses.
- If alternative hypothesis is as follows HA: µ1 not equal and you rejected the null hypothesis, state in words what you would conclude?
- The above alternative hypothesis would be
- Nondirectional hypothesis
- Directional hypothesis

Research data indicates that adolescents, especially girls, experience an increase in self-esteem when given a team-sports leadership program. To evaluate this result, a researcher obtains (randomly) a sample of n = 9 adolescent girls, all 13 years old. After they participate in the program a self-esteem test is given to each participant and the average score for the sample is M = 84. It is know that the distribution of self-esteem scores for the population of girls is normal with µ = 75....

A researcher conducted a single sample t-test on results of an experiment with n = 18 participants and the computed t = -2.28. What is the correct conclusion from this experiment if p < 0.05, 2-tails test is used for hypothesis testing? O A. The researcher failed to reject the null hypothesis and concluded that there is a significant treatment effect. O B. The researcher rejected the null hypothesis and concluded that there is a significant treatment...

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,...

An Independent Samples T Test is used to make an inference about whether two groups in the population have different averages on some quantitative measure or dependent variable. This test could be used to compare the average annual earnings of High School graduates, compared to Community College graduates For this potential research question, answer the following questions. Please use only numeric values in your answers to questions 1, 2 and 3 and a word to answer question 4 1) According...

A child psychologist believe that controlled physical outbursts of anger (like punching a pillow) may improve the mood of young boys with emotional impairment. He believes that the proportion of boys who benefit from the treatment is greater than the proportion of girls. A random sample from each population receives counseling in the treatment and is asked about their mood after an episode (x is the number of test subjects that reported an improvement in mood). The results of the...

The following question is based on scenario 2: Researchers are interested in seeing how sitting for long periods of time can influence cardiovascular health. They ask people how many hours per day they sit, and then they measure their blood pressure to see if they are associated. They expect that as hours spent sitting increases, blood pressure will also increase. Question 6 1 pts What is the best statistical test to use to analyze the hypothesis in scenario 2? Z-score...
