A group of twenty students and we want to investigate the effect of the use of some didactic resource, for example a video on YouTube, on their ability to solve certain types of mathematical problems. We take an initial test, we ask them to watch the video and when they finish we take another test. We now have two observations from each student. We calculate the difference between them. Please use the statistical methods learned in this semester (variance analysis/regression analysis/chi-square test) to calculate and write a short report.

A group of twenty students and we want to investigate the effect of the use of some didactic resource, a video on YouTube, on their ability to solve certain types of mathematical problems. We take an initial test, we ask them to watch the video and when they finish we take another test. We now have two observations from each student.

We want to investigate the average time per day students spend playing video games. We pick a simple random sample of 900 students and record how long they play video games per day. It turns out that the sample average is 2 hours and the SD of the sample is 1.25 hours. Find the 91% confidence interval for our estimate of the average time per day spent playing video games.

A group of psychiatrists want to investigate if there is any difference in depression levels (measured on a scale from [0=not at all depressed] to [100=severely depressed]) in patients who have been treated for depression by being told to regularly exercise versus those who were given an oral medication, Contentica, to treat depression. The researchers selected a sample of 15 patients who were told to regularly exercise and found that their mean depression level was a score of 48 with...

A group of researchers wanted to investigate the effect that active listening have in feeling understood. The researchers know from prior studies (using the FUME scale: feeling of understanding scale) that the results of interaction with partners who received advice from the listener had a FUME average score 11.79 with the standard deviation of 7.47. The researchers conducted an experiment where the 37 participants were given an interaction partner and that partner engaged actively listened without given any advice. The...

We want to investigate the proportion of the adult American who state that the amount of tax (federal, state, property, sales, and so on) they pay is too high. In a survey of 1200 adult Americans, 640 state that the amount of tax they pay is too high. To finish the investigation do just one of the following. (a) Use a 95% confidence interval to determine the proportion of Americans that state the amount of tax they pay is too...

We investigate the effect on the economy of a negative shock to consumer confidence. Assume that the behavior of the economy is given by the following equations: Goods Market: Y = C + I + G (Goods Market equilibrium) C = Z + 0.5(Y − T) (Consumer Demand) I = 60 − 50r (Investment Demand) G = T = 100 (Government Budget) Money Market: M/P = L(Y, r + e) (Money Market Equilibrium) L(Y, r + e) = 0.1Y −...

A previous group of students wanted to investigate the factors that contribute to female fecundity (total number of eggs a female lays).  They wondered if the female’s body weight might play a role.  The students collected and weighed 15 newly-emerged virgin female bean beetles.  Each female was mated and given plenty of black-eyed peas on which to lay eggs.  Each day the students checked the beans for eggs, counted the number of eggs, and gave the female fresh beans.  When the female died, the students...

We want to explore the effect of parameters on a binomial distribution (this is a bit similar to last week's assignment). Start up R/RStudio a) First we'll do our coin example from lecture. Let's calculate those probabilities and plot a graph so we know what our “distribution” looks like: In the script window or on the command line do the following: y <- c(0:10) we're giving y the numbers 0 through 10 y if you want to see “y”, you...
