6. Texting and Drinking In a study of high school students at least 16 years of age, researchers obtained survey results summarized in the accompanying table (based on data from “Texting While Driving and Other Risky Motor Vehicle Behaviors Among U. S. High School Students,” by O’Malley, Shults, and Eaton, Pediatrics, Vol. 131, No. 6). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim of independence between texting while driving and driving when drinking alcohol. Are those two risky behaviors independent of each other?

Drove When Drinking Alcohol?

Yes No

Texted While Driving 731 3054

No Texting While Driving 156 4564

In a certain high school, uniforms are optional. A study shows that high school students who wear uniforms have a lower grade average than students who don't wear uniforms. From this study, the school administration claims that they should not require the students to wear uniforms because that is the cause of the lowering grades. Another possible explanation is that students who wear uniforms are poorer than the students who don't wear uniforms and the economic situation of their parents...

A study was conducted on students from a particular high school over the last 8 years. The following information was found regarding standardized tests used for college admitance. Scores on the SAT test are normally distributed with a mean of 1010 and a standard deviation of 200. Scores on the ACT test are normally distributed with a mean of 20.9 and a standard deviation of 4.4. It is assumed that the two tests measure the same aptitude, but use different...

A recent study claimed that at least 15% of junior high students are overweight. In a sample of 160 students, 18 were found to be overweight. At α = 0.05, test the claim. Identify the claim, state the null and alternative hypotheses, find the critical value, find the standardized test statistic, make a decision on the null hypothesis (you may use a P-Value instead of the standardized test statistic), write an interpretation statement on the decision.

Imagine a correlational study that looks at intelligence, the need for cognition, and high school students’ performance in a critical-thinking course. A multiple regression analysis shows that intelligence is not related to performance in the class but that the need for cognition is. Explain what this study has shown in terms of what causes good performance in the critical-thinking course. please write as much as possible with your own words, Thank you.
