Identical Twins To compare two junior high schools, A and B, in academic effectiveness, an experiment was designed requiring the use of 10 sets of identical twins, each twin having just completed the sixth grade. In each case, the twins in the same set had obtained their schooling in the same classrooms at each grade level. One child was selected at random from each pair of twins and assigned to school A. The remaining children were sent to school B. Near the end of the ninth grade, a certain achievement test was given to each child in the experiment. The test scores are shown in the table.
a. Test (using the sign test) the hypothesis that the two schools are the same in academic effectiveness, as measured by scores on the achievement test, versus the alternative that the schools are not equally effective.
b. Suppose it was known that junior high school A had a superior faculty and better learning facilities. Test the hypothesis of equal academic effectiveness versus the alternative that school A is superior.
