Among the various measurements recorded were those are forced expiratory volume (liters) in 1 second (FEV1) before and after application of the treatment. Suppose the researcher would like to test if the treatment is effective in increasing the FEV1. Please clearly state the hypotheses, carry out the test and state your conclusion for the tests listed below.

A test of abstract reasoning is given to a sample of students before and after they completed a formal logic course. Assume that two dependent samples have been randomly selected from normally distributed populations. The results are given below. At the 0.05 significance level, use critical value method to test the claim that the mean score is not affected by the course. Does the course improve the students’ skill on abstract reasoning?

This format should allow you more time to think about your answer. The length of your answers should range from 2-4 paragraphs, depending on the complexity of the question. Each question is worth 10 points. Remember to use the readings and your class notes to answer the questions. Use citations/quotes and then go on to interpret and explain the quote in your own words.
Modern Marxian economics has sought to adapt Marx’s theory to contemporary capitalism. Three empirical studies demonstrate this. Describe the additional insights brought to the analysis of: (1) the productivity slowdown of the 1970s (Weisskopf, Bowles, Gordon); (2) the long-run change in the rate of profit (Dumenil and Levy); (3) the identification of financialization as a new phase of capitalist development (Lapavitsas).

The year is 1870, the location is the town of Silverton in Colorado. There are two saloons in town: Red's Beard and Sadie's White Garter. After years of cut-throat competition the two owners, Red and Sadie, decide to cooperate in order to make more money. They have been making $400 per month each by competing fair and square. They decide if they each raise prices and limit the number of beers served, they will earn $1,000 per month each. However if one limits the number of beers and raises prices and the other does not, then they will earn only $200 per month while their competitor will earn $1,500 per month. Not knowing what to do, they turn to you, the prospecting game theorist, to help them figure out what to do.
Fill in the following table with the payoffs they can expect. Enter as follows: (Red's payoff, Sadie's payoff). Enter whole numbers - no commas.
| Sadie's | |||
| Raise Prices | Do Not Raise Prices | ||
| Red's | Raise Prices | ( [ Select ] ["400", "1,000", "1,500", "200"] , [ Select ] ["1,500", "1,000", "200", "400"] ) | ( [ Select ] ["400", "1,500", "1,000", "200"] , [ Select ] ["200", "1,500", "400", "1,000"] ) |
| Do Not Raise Prices | ( [ Select ] ["1,500", "200", "1,000", "400"] , [ Select ] ["1,000", "400", "200", "1,500"] ) | ( [ Select ] ["400", "1,000", "1,500", "200"] , [ Select ] ["1,500", "400", "1,000", "200"] ) |
Based on the payoffs, what is the likely outcome of the game? Explain
both of them raises prices
both of them do not raise prices
sadie does but red does not
red does but sadie does not raise prices
