Problem Set 3: (9 pts) This study investigated the cognitive effects of stimulant medication in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Shown below are data for the Connors’ Continuous Performance Test (CPT) for 15 children diagnosed with ADHD. This is a visual vigilance task that requires the child to respond to the computer screen any time they see any letter other than “X”. An overall index is calculated that can be used to indicate attention problems based on reaction time, omission errors, and variability of responses. A higher number indicates more problems with attention. Children were given various daily dosages of a drug methylphenidate (MPH) – given 0, 5mg, 10mg, and 25mg). The order of doses was counterbalanced so that all children received all doses at one point in the experiment. The children were on each dose one week before taking the CPT test (so each child took the test four times).

SOLUTION:-
The hypothesis being tested is:-
H0: µ1 = µ2 = µ3 = µ4
Ha: At least one means is not equal
The output is:
Source | SS | df | MS | F | P-Value |
Treatment | 14.55 | 3 | 4.850 | 4.31 | .0208 |
Error | 18.00 | 16 | 1.125 | ||
Total | 32.55 | 19 |
The P-value from the output is 0.0208.
Since the P-value (0.0208) is less than the significance level (0.05), we can reject the null hypothesis.
Therefore, we can conclude that at least one means is not equal.

A mother brings her 9-year-old daughter into the pediatrician’s office for a follow-up appointment. The daughter had been diagnosed with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) last year while repeating second grade. She has been taking methylphenidate (Ritalin) 10 mg twice a day for 7 months now. Initially, she had been started on methylphenidate (Ritalin) 10 mg three times a day, but complaints of headache and insomnia resulted in a series of changes. Initially, the last dose of the day was dropped...

Problem Set 2: Two-way mixed design ANOVA (8 pts) Research Scenario: A researcher is attempting to determine the effects of age and sleep deprivation on a reaction time task. Participants (5 “old”; 5 “young”) in an experiment are given a computerized search task. They search a computer screen of various characters and attempt to find a particular character on each trial. When they find the designated character, they press a button to stop a timer. Their reaction time (in ms)...

Suppose that strong claims, with weak evidence, have been made about the efficacy of an herbal treatment for attention deficit disorder (ADD). You are a research assistant for a professor who decides to empirically test the validity of these claims. You locate 10 fifthgrade students, in 10 different classrooms, who have been diagnosed with ADD. Sitting unobtrusively at the back of each classroom with stopwatch in hand, you record the number of seconds that the child with ADD is out...
