There is no reason to pair a particular bird with a particular fish, so these are independent samples.

a. Should you use a test of the difference of two means or a test of the mean of the differences?

19. Page 655, E70
You should use a one-sample test of the mean of the differences.
We do not have two independent samples.
Because the measurements of the distance are for
the fifth launch and tenth launch for each team,
this is a repeated measures design.

20. Page 655, E70
Should this be a one-sided test or a two-sided test?

21. Page 655, E70 a. A one-sided test should be used
because you want to test whether the
teams improved, which would mean the
distance on the tenth launch would be
longer.

22. Page 655, E70
b. Check conditions:

23. Page 655, E70 b. Check conditions: This is not a random
sample of teams and the paired
observations are not in random order.
So, what is this?

24. Page 655, E70 b. Check conditions: This is not a random
sample of teams and the paired
observations are not in random order.
This is an observational study of teams.

25. Page 655, E70 b. Check conditions: (Use STAT PLOT of L3)
The boxplot of the differences is basically
symmetric with no outliers so
Be sure to show your plot.

26. Page 655, E70 b. Check conditions:
The boxplot of the differences is basically
symmetric with no outliers so it is
reasonable to assume the differences
came from a normally distributed population.
Be sure to show your plot.

27. Page 655, E70 b. Check conditions:
We do not know if there were 60 or more teams that launched gummy bears.

28. Page 655, E70 b. Check conditions:
The conditions have not been met for
a significance test for paired differences but
the test result may still be useful.

State your hypotheses:
H0 :

30. Page 655, E70 State your hypotheses:
H0 : μd = 0, where μd is the mean of the differences between the distance on the tenth launch and the distance on the fifth launch

31. Statistically significant evidence that teams improved?

H0 : μd = 0, where μd is the mean of the differences between the distance on the tenth launch and the distance on the fifth launch

34. Page 655, E70 Write your conclusion in context, linked to
your computations:
I do not reject the null hypothesis because

significance level of = 0.01.

35. Page 655, E70 Write your conclusion in context, linked to
your computations:
I do not reject the null hypothesis because
the P-value of is greater than the
significance level of = 0.01.
There is not sufficient evidence to support the
claim that the teams improved from launch 5 to
launch 10.

36. Page 655, E70
c. What type of error may have been made?

37. Page 655, E70 c. Type I: reject true null hypothesis
Type II: do not reject false null hypothesis

38. Page 655, E70
c. A Type II error could have been made because if practice still has an effect after the 5th launch, you have failed to reject a false null hypothesis.
Type I: reject true null hypothesis
Type II: do not reject false null hypothesis

39. Page 655, E70 d. The result may not match your intuition.
You would still expect some improvement
with practice, although you would expect less
improvement from the fifth launch to the tenth than
from the first launch to the tenth.
At some point you might expect that more practice
is not going to cause any more noticeable
improvement, but you might not expect that to
occur already after the fifth launch.

Supposing the data are not paired, the treatments were assigned randomly to all the subjects.

The distributions of both lists are symmetric with no outliers so it’s reasonable to assume both samples came from normally distributed populations.

e. The one-sample test on the differences has more power because the P-value is smaller, meaning the null hypothesis is more likely to be rejected.
Difference of means: P-value ≈ 0.174
Mean difference: P-value ≈ 0.04

Should you use a two-sample test of the difference of two means or a one-sample test of the mean of the differences?
Why?

57. Page 636, E61
Should you use a two-sample test of the difference of two means or a one-sample test of the mean of the differences?
Why? These are random samples and presumably independent because there is no indication of any pairing taking place.

58. Questions?

59. These rates of women’s participation in the labor force were collected by the U.S. Department of Labor Statistics in 19 cities for 1968 and The purpose was to monitor the change in the percentage of women who were in the labor force during that period.

61. a. Discuss whether a statistical test is appropriate for determining whether there was a change in the mean percentage of women in the labor force, by city, between 1968 and 1972.

62. a. Discuss whether a statistical test is appropriate for determining whether there was a change in the mean percentage of women in the labor force, by city, between 1968 and 1972.
The sample is not random. These are the largest U.S. cities. Thus, they are unlikely to be representative of all cities in the entire United States. Thus, a test of significance based on matched pairs isn’t really appropriate.

63. b. Regardless of your response to part a, carry out a test of whether there is statistically significant evidence of a change in the mean percentage of women who were in the labor force, by city, between 1968 and 1972.

65. Name Test and Check Conditions

66. Name Test and Check Conditions
Two-sided significance test of a mean difference based on paired observations

67. Check Conditions
The sample of cities wasn’t selected at random. These are the largest cities in the United States and there is no reason to suppose that these large cities are representative of all cities or of the entire United States.

68. Check Conditions
The set of differences is slightly skewed with no outliers, but this doesn’t indicate a serious problem with non-normality.

69. Check Conditions
The population is at least 10 times the sample size as there are more than 190 large cities in the U.S.

70. State Hypotheses
H0: = 0, the mean difference in the percentage of women who participated in the labor force, by city, between 1968 and 1972, is 0.

71. State Hypotheses
H0: = 0; the mean difference in the percentage of women who participated in the labor force, by city, between 1968 and 1972, is 0

74. Conclusion in Context
I reject the null hypothesis because the P-value of is less than the significance level of 0.05.

75. Conclusion in Context
I reject the null hypothesis because the P-value of is less than the significance level of 0.05.
There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that there was a significant change in the mean percentage of women who were in the labor force between 1968 and 1972 for these 19 cities.

76. Conclusion in Context
There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that there was a significant change in the mean percentage of women who were in the labor force, by city, between 1968 and 1972 for these 19 cities.
Note: we can not make an inference to all cities because we did not have a random sample of cities.
