An experimenter wants to investigate the accuracy of fortune-tellers' predictions. She asks fifteen fortune-tellers and fifteen students, to make ten specific predictions about what will happen to her in the next month. She then records, for each of these groups of people, how many of the predictions come true.
1. What are the variables of interest in this study? If the study is an experimental one, identify which variable is the IV and which variable is the DV.
2. What do you think the researcher's hypothesis was?
3. Based on your answer to B, what should the null and alternative hypotheses be?
4. Based on your answer to B, which statistical test would you use to address this hypothesis? Explain your reasoning.

1. In a study of red/green color blindness, 950 men and 2300 women are randomly selected and tested. Among the men, 83 have red/green color blindness. Among the women, 5 have red/green color blindness. Test the claim that men have a higher rate of red/green color blindness.
The test statistic is:
The p-value is:
Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that men have a higher rate of red/green color blindness than women using the 0.05% significance level?
A. Yes
B. No
2. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the color blindness rates of men and women.
_____ <(p1−p2)< _____
Which of the following is the correct interpretation for your answer in part 2?
A. We can be 95% confident that the difference between the rates of red/green color blindness for men and women lies in the interval
B. We can be 95% confident that that the difference between the rates of red/green color blindness for men and women in the sample lies in the interval
C. There is a 95% chance that that the difference between the rates of red/green color blindness for men and women lies in the interval
D. None of the above
