Statistic Analysis

  1.  The critical z for a two tail test at alpha equals .05 is.
  2. Plus or minus 1.96
  3. Plus or minus 1.64
  4. Plus or minus 1.35
  5. Plus or minus 1.28
  •  It is known that the interval for p is (.025, .05).  Your alpha is .07
  •  In this situation, always retain the null hypothesis
  • In this situation, always reject the null hypothesis
  • In this situation, sometimes retain the null hypothesis
  • In this situation, sometimes reject the null hypothesis
  •  When we speak of p, we mean the following
  •  P is the probability that we reject the null hypothesis
  • P is the probability that the null is true given we have rejected the null
  • P is the probability that the null is true given we have retained the null
  • None of the above
  •  Unlike the z, the t distribution has which properties
  •  We have to deal with degrees of freedom
  • We do not know the population standard deviation
  • Both A and B
  • Neither A nor B
  •  The Chi-Square distribution….
  •  Is used to measure the difference in means
  • Is used to measure the differences in standard deviations
  • Both A and B
  • Neither A nor B
  •  The Wonderlic test is a test of adult intelligence.  It is known that the mean Wonderlic score is a 17 and it is known that the standard deviation is 6.  Carla has a sample of 36 adults whose average score is a 14.  This leads Carla to claim that the mean is less than the purported population mean.  She tests at alpha=.07
