Question
THERE ARE FOUR PARTS TO THIS POST. PLEASE ANSWER ALL FOUR PLEASE!!! SS MEANS SUM SQUARED
1. An independent-samples experiment uses one sample with n = 10 and a second sample
with n = 15 to compare two experimental treatments. The t statistic from this experiment
will have degrees of freedom equal to ___________.
a) 23
b) 24
c) 25
d) cannot be determined with unequal sample sizes
2. An independent-samples research study with n = 6 participants in EACH treatment has
SS = 70 for Treatment 1 and SS = 50 for Treatment 2. For these data, the estimated
standard error for sample mean difference is ________.
a) 4
b) 12
c) 120
d) 2
3. A researcher conducts a study comparing two treatment conditions and obtains 20
scores in each treatment. If the researcher used a related samples/repeated-measures
design, then how many subjects participated in the research study?
a) 10
b) 20
c) 21
d) 40
4. Two separate samples, each with n = 4, are used to test the effects of two competing
sports drinks on athletic performance. What would be the critical value for this test if alpha
= .01 at two-tails?
a) ±3.143
b) ±2.998
c) ±3.707
d) ±2.580
Explanation / Answer
Solution:-
1) option a) 23
Explanation:- df = n1+n2-2 = 10+15-2 = 25-2 = 23
2) option d) 2
3) option b) 20
4) option c) ±3.707
Explanation: The following information is provided: the requested significance level is =0.01, for the two-tailed case. df = 8-2 = 6
The t-critical values for a two-tailed test, for a significance level of =0.01 are
tc=3.707 and tc=3.707
