Recent research has shown that creative people are more likely to cheat than their less creative counterparts (Gino & Ariely, 2011). Participants in the study first completed creativity assessment questionnaires and then returned to the lab several days later for a series of tasks. One task was a multiple-choice general knowledge test for which the participants circled their answers on a test sheet. Afterward, they were asked to transfer their answers to bubble sheets for computer scoring. However, the experimenter admitted that the wrong bubble sheet had been copied so that the correct answers were still faintly visible. Thus the participants had an opportunity to cheat and inflate their test scores. Higher scores were valuable because participants were paid based on the number of correct answers. However, the researchers had secretly coded the original tests and bubble sheets so that they could measure the degree of cheating for each participant. Assuming that the participants were divided into two groups based on their creativity scores, compute the t and report to two decimal places. [NOTE: Some values have changed from the previous question.]

High Creativity Participants	Low Creativity Participants
n = 10	n = 10
M = 6.5	M = 5.9
SS = 75.3	SS = 125

1. Research has shown that elderly people who owned dogs were less likely to pay visits to their doctors after upsetting events than were those who did not own pets. Similarly, consider the following hypothetical data. A sample of elderly dog owners is compared to a similar group (in terms or age and health) who do not own dogs. The researcher records the number of visits to the doctor during the past year for each person. The data are as...

Market research has indicated that customers are likely to bypass Roma tomatoes that weigh less than 70 grams. A produce company produces Roma tomatoes that average 78.0 grams with a standard deviation of 5.2 grams. Suppose there were 3 undersized tomatoes in the random sample of 20. What is the probability of getting at least 3 undersized tomatoes in a random sample of 20 if the company's claim is true? Do you believe the company's claim? Why or why not?

Market research has indicated that customers are likely to bypass Roma tomatoes that weigh less than 70 grams. A produce company produces Roma tomatoes that average 78.0 grams with a standard deviation of 5.2 grams. i) Assuming that the normal distribution is a reasonable model for the weights of these tomatoes, what proportion of Roma tomatoes are currently undersize (less than 70g)? ii) How much must a Roma tomato weigh to be among the heaviest 20%? iii) The aim of...

A psychologist wanted to know if students in her class were more likely to cheat if they were low achievers. She divided her 60 students into three groups (low, middle, and high) based on their mean course-testings score on the previous three tests. She then asked them to rate how likely they were to cheat on an course-testings if the opportunity presented itself with very limited chance for consequences. The students rated their desire to cheat on a scale ranging...

A recent study investigated whether vodka is less likely to give you a hangover than wine. Twenty participants on a night out were asked to drink only vodka for the whole evening then rate how they felt the next day out of 10 (0 = I feel fantastic, 10 = I can't move my head in case it explodes). The following month, they were asked to do the same again, only this time they were asked to drink only white...
