    Experiment conducted to compare mean reaction time to two types of traffic signs.

    An experiment was conducted to compare mean reaction time to 2 types of traffic signs, prohibitive (No Left Turn) and permissive (Left Turn Only). Ten subjects were included in the experiment. Each subject was presented with 40traffice signs: 10 prohibitive and 10 permissive in random order. The mean time to reaction and the num

    T test for whether people make more money as they get older.

    Complete a T-test for the following data: Use Excel. Do people, regardless of individual issues, in general make more money as they get older? Below is a data list. The random error for this test comes from the fact that salary can have a variety of ranges based on type of occupation, personal ability, plus many other items.

    Coaching company claims for raising SAT scores

    Coaching compaines claim that their courses can raise the SAT scores of high school students. Of course, students who retake the SAT without paying for coaching generally raise their scores. A random sample of students who took the SAT twice found 427 who were coached and 2733 who were uncoached. Starting with their verbal sc

    Test claims at reasonable levels of significance for a new weight loss program

    Suppose a new weight loss program was sponsored by the local health and fitness club in a small town. The program claims to make people lose more than five pounds in a month. Twelve participants were selected and their weights were recorded. After a month of the program their weights were recorded again. It was found that many

    Hypothesis Testing: Independent sample t test

    Markowitz and Felson (1998) examined how attitudes toward violence may differ between the general population and ex-offenders. This question is based on their paper. The authors asked both samples to indicate whether they strongly agreed (-2), agreed (-1), were not sure (0), disagreed (+1), or strongly disagreed (+2) with the fo

    Paired t-test example for statistics students

    Community policing strategies have been useful in some jurisdictions to reduce crime. As Police Captain, you wish to run an experiment to see whether it will work in your city. In each of 10 neighborhoods you record the number of arrests for violent offenses for 90 days prior to implementing a community policing strategy and for

    An average computer mouse inspector can inspect 50 mice per hour. The 48 computer mice inspectors at a particular factory can only inspect 46 mice per hour with a standard deviation of 10. At = 0.025, does the company have reason to believe that these inspectors are slower than average?

The experimental group has a mean of 38 on the test (with an estimated population standard deviation of 3); the control group has a mean of 35 (

    Statistics: Hypothesis test for maintenance manager of new repair method

    A maintenance manager must test a new repair method that should increase the expected time between repairs. For each machine used in the study, she recorded the last time between failures prior to using the new method, which she called "Current," and the first time between failures after using the new, which she called "New."

    T - Statistic vs. Z-Statistic

    Why is a t-statistic, as opposed to a z-statistic, used to test small populations? When does the t-statistic approximate the z-statistic?

    t-statistics with interpretation and assumptions

    Consider the filling operation for 20-oz bottles of a popular soft drink. Historically, this operation averages 20.2 oz. A recent random sample of 12 bottles yielded these volumes: 20.0 20.1 20.0 19.9 20.5 20.9 20.1 20.4 20.2 19.1 20.1 20.0 a. Find the sample mean for these data. b. Assume that the historical av

    Test difference in mean battery life of two types of digital cameras

    Q-5a. One of the important features of a camera is the battery life as measured by the number of shots taken until the battery needs to be recharged. The data below contain the battery life of 31 subcompact cameras and 15 compact cameras. Assuming that the population variances from both types of digital cameras are equal, is

    Statistics: Union membership, Free school lunches, Automobile parts production

    1. Union Membership Nationwide 13.7% of employed wage and salary workers are union members (down from 20.1% in 1983). A random sample of 300 local wage and salary workers showed that 50 belonged to a union. At ?=0.05, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of union membership differs from 13.7%? 2. F
