GSuppose that the results of carrying out the hypothesis test lead to non-rejection of the nullhypothesis. Classify that conclusion by error type or as a correct decision if in fact the meanage at diagnosis of all people with early-onset dementia is less than 55 years old. Supposethat the manufacturer of a new COVID-19 vaccine in South Africa wants to test the nullhypothesis Ho: 0 = 0.90 against the alternative hypothesis H₁:0 = 0.60. She defined her teststatistic Y as a number of patients recovered from COVID-19 after an observed twenty trials.If she decided to accept H, and assume y > 14,i) What will be her Type I error and the power of the test.ii) Explain how the probability of Type II error can be reduced in this case and how it will affectType I error. Give a practical example.

Answered: c) Suppose that the results of carrying…

A researcher has observed 500 vehicles at a stop in a suburban neighborhood and recorded the type of vehicle (sedan, hatchback, bakkie) and driver behavior ar the stop sign (complete stop, near stop, "ran" tha stop sign). At the 0.05 level of significance, could there be some relationship between driver behavior and the type of vehicle being driven? Define the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis.
Are freshmen psychology majors just as likely to change their major before they graduate compared to freshmen business majors? 366 of the 673 freshmen psychology majors from a recent study changed their major before they graduated and 394 of the 705 freshmen business majors changed their major before they graduated. What can be concluded at the a = 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use z-test for the difference between two population proportions a. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: p1 p2 v (please enter a decimal) H1: p1 p2 (Please enter a decimal) b. The test statistic z v -0.508 X (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) c. The p-value = 0.6115 X (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) d. The p-value is > vV a e. Based on this, we should fail to reject the null hypothesis. f. Thus, the final conclusion is that ...

An RA at the University of Baltimore has concluded that the difference between the mean GPA scores of Senior and junior is statistically significant, when in fact the null hypothesis of no difference is true. What type of error has he committed?
A researcher states an alternative hypothesis that the exercise improves physical health. Which is a possible null hypothesis corresponding to this alternative hypothesis? Exercise worsens physical health Physical health is not impacted by exercises Exercises worsens or has no impact on physical health
Allopurinol test is often used as a screening device of potential carriers whose relatives are OTCD (a disorder of the urea cycle) patients. The sensitivity and the specificity of the allopurinol test are estimated as 0.927 and 0.997, respectively. If the prevalence of individuals with OTCD in the population is 1/32000, determine the predictive value negative of the allopurinol screening test.
A two-tailed hypothesis test is being used to evaluate a treatment effect with α = .05. If the sample data produce a z-score of z = -2.24, which is the correct decision?
A mutation in Gene A is thought to be associated with a disease. The mutation in Gene A is found in 5% of the population. 2% of the whole population is diagnosed with disease B at some point in their life time. 1% of the population both has the mutation and also gets diagnosed with the disease in their life time. Is the provided data adequate to test the independency of mutation in Gene A and occurrence of Disease B? If it is not, what other information or data is needed to test the independency? What is the probability of Disease B, among the individuals with the mutation in Gene A? What is the probability of having the mutation in Gene A among the individuals with Disease B? If an individual has the mutated Gene A, what is their Relative Risk of developing the disease?
A researcher measures weights of Rat A and Rat B, 8 animals from each of the species were weighed and 95% CI on the means of the weights was calculated. Length of CI of Rat A mean weight was 20 mm, length of CI of Rat B mean weight was 30. Which rat type has a more variant weight? Explain your answer. A hypothesis test was performed to test if variance of a dataset is different than 3.5 or not, by using α = 0.05. The dataset had 8 samples, and value of the test statistic was 20. What was the hypothesis, which test was used, was it rejected or accepted? 200 autistic children were given an IQ test. The researcher wants to compare their average IQ to IQ of the general public. Which hypothesis test should they use and why? Do you prefer to have high Type I error or high Type II error in your hypothesis test? Why?
If the alternative hypothesis states that alcohol affects short-term memory, the null hypothesis states O alcohol does not affect short-term memory O alcohol decreases short-term memory alcohol does not decrease short-term memory
Suppose a professional basketball player historically makes 37% of his three-point field goals. After a rigorous off-season training, the -player makes 36 of his 75 three-point field goals Does this represent significant evidence that the player's three-point field goal shooting has ?improved What is your decision about the null hypothesis, ?consider a = 0.05? Why We reject the null hypothesis at a = 0.05 . Zo > z0.025 significance level, because We reject the null hypothesis at a = 0.05 to > to.025 significance level, because We fail to reject the null hypothesis at a = 0.05 .-Z0.05 < z0 < z0.05 significance level, because We fail to reject the null hypothesis at a = 0.05 --Z0.025 < zo < z0.025 significance level, because
The manager of a concert production company analyzes a regression relating ticket sales to the independent variables "spending on advertising" and "unemployment rate" in the region. The regression was based on a random sample of 30 observations. She computes the D-W statistic to be 1.2 to determine if positive autocorrelation might be a problem. At the 5% significance level, what can we conclude? Multiple Choice We do not reject the null hypothesis and conclude there is likely no autocorrelation. We reject the null hypothesis and conclude there is likely positive autocorrelation. he test is inconclusive. We cannot say whether positive autocorrelation exists. We reject the alternate hypothesis and conclude that there is likely no positive autocorrelation.
