18. A group of Industrial Organizational psychologists wanted to test if giving a motivational speech at the end of a meeting would encourage office workers to have a higher output to their work based on the numbers of sales each worker made. The group tested 10 participants that were in two conditions where one meeting ended in a motivational speech and another were no motivational speech was given. Here are the number of sales that was produced by the 10 participants for both conditions:

Yes speech: 2, 6, 1, 9, 3, 12, 8, 0, 5, 1

No speech: 3, 0, 5, 10, 1, 8, 2, 1,9, 11

Use the four steps of hypothesis testing to find out if there is a significant difference between the two groups, using APA format to answer the question.

20. Run the same data from question 19 (and the same criteria) using a repeated measures test.

a. Perform the test and report results (show ALL work)

b. Explain what the difference in results is due to.

A study of the career paths of hotel general managers sent questionnaires to an SRS of 250 hotels belonging to major U.S. hotel chains. There were 127 responses. The average time these 127 general managers had spent with their current company was 8.92 years. (Take it as known that the standard deviation of time with the company for all general managers is 2.8 years.)

(a) Find the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval to estimate the mean time a general manager had spent with their current company: years

(b) Find the margin of error for a 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean time a general manager had spent with their current company: years

(c) In general, increasing the confidence level the margin of error (width) of the confidence interval. (Enter: ''DECREASES'', ''DOES NOT CHANGE'' or ''INCREASES'', without the quotes.)

Consider your dissertation research interests. Identify one categorical/nominal scale IV with more than 2 categories, and three DVs that are measured on continuous scales. Think of DV measures that probably are moderately correlated with each other because they are measuring different components of the same or similar concepts (e.g., three different measures of academic performance). What information would a one-way MANOVA provide you? What more would you want to know if you get significant results in the MANOVA? Why would this be significant to your research? Please type about a 200 word response and use IQ as as the topic. Thanks

I am working on a method section for a paper. The experiment in general terms is testing to see if there is a significance between two treatment groups in substance abuse recovery. One group is an exercise group the other is not. the sample population is about 100 individuals and 50 in each category. All individuals will be asked yes or no if they relapsed over the last year. What would be the best statistical analysis test for determining if this is chance or if there is significance.

A class survey in a large class for first-year college students asked, "About how many minutes do you study on a typical weeknight?" The mean response of the 257 students was x¯¯¯x¯ = 140 minutes. Suppose that we know that the study time follows a Normal distribution with standard deviation σσ = 65 minutes in the population of all first-year students at this university.

Use the survey result to give a 95% confidence interval for the mean study time of all first-year students.

please explain your process. Thank you

According to the British United Provident Association, a major health care provider in the U.K., snoring can be an indication of sleep apnea which can cause chronic illness if left untreated. In the United States, the National Sleep foundation reports that 36.8% of the 995 adults they surveyed snored. Of the respondents, 81.5% were over the age of 30, and 32% were both over the age of 30 and snorers.

a. Are the two events of being older than 30 and “did not snore, mutually exclusive? (prove mathematically)

b. Is snoring independent of age? Explain and prove mathematically.
