Question

1) A sample of difference scores has a mean of the differences = 5. Which combination of factors is most likely to produce a significant difference.

A. n = 4 with a variance of = 36 for the difference scores

B. n = 4 with a variance of = 64 for the difference scores

C. n = 9 with a variance of = 36 for the difference scores

D. n = 9 with a variance of = 64 for the difference scores

2.A sample is selected from a population with = 80, and a treatment is administered to the sample. If the sample variance is s2 = 20, which set of sample characteristics is most likely to lead to a decision that there is a significant treatment effect (reject H0)?

A. M = 85 for a sample of n = 25

B. M = 85 for a sample of n = 100

C. M = 90 for a sample of n = 25

D. M = 90 for a sample of n = 100

3.As sample size increases _______
