We sampled a group of undergraduate students (n=1200) to determine the proportion of students who were considered binge drinkers. We hypothesized that the proportion of students who were binge drinkers were less than the national proportion of college students who were binge drinkers (pnull=0.35). 1. What are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses? 2. Among the 1200 students sampled, the proportion of binge drinkers (p^) was 0.27. With a one sample z-test, our calculated z was -5.67 and the theoretical...

A university wants to determine if students from different majors are equally likely to be cited for academic dishonesty. They average instances of documented cheating across 10 years for three different academic majors and find the following results: Business Administration (M = 5.1; N = 10), Fine Art (M = 1.9; N = 10), and Nursing (M = 3.2; N = 10). They also calculated the between-group and within-group sum of squares (SSB = 301.6; SSW =1343.8). Use a one-way...
