(2006). Tattoos can harm peroeptions: A study and suggestions. Joumal of Americar College Heavth, 56, 593-596.1 un a smilar study, a researcher first obtains overal ratings of ettractiveness for a woman with no tattoos shown in a color photograph. On a 7-point scale, the woman receives an average rating of u- 4.9, and the distribution of ratings is normal wth a standard deviation of a-0.84. The researcher then modifes the photo by edcing a tattoo of a butterfly on the woman's left arm. The modifed photo is then showm to a sample of n 16 students at a local community colege, and the students use the same 7-point sxcale to rate the ettractiveness of the worman. The average score for the photo with the tattoo is M-4.2 do the data indicate a significant difference in rated attractiveness when the woman appeared to have a tattoo? use a two-tailed test with -.os.

Round to three decimal places Complete the sentence describing the outcome of the hypothesis test and the measure of effect size as it would appear in a research report: The results attractiveness of a woman that the presence of a tattoo a significant effect on the judged and

Explanation / Answer

Z= mean-mu/sigma/sqrt(n)

= 4.2-4.9/0.84/sqrt(16)

= -0.7/0.84/4

z= -3.33

Since it is two tailed test , we will take absolute value of Z

Z= 3.33

critical value of z at alpha= 0.05 is 1.96 for two tailed test

There is a significant difference.

Cohen's d = (4.2 - 4.9) 0.84 = 0.833

The results have sufficient evidence that thepresence ofa tatoo has a significant effect on the judgedattractiveness ofa woman: Z= 3.33, The P-Value is 0.000868. The result is significant at p < 0.05.and cohens d is 0.833 which is large.
