...Week Four: Answer Questions about Hypothesis Testing For an H0 to be rejected, there has to be a proven relationship between groups. For an alternative Ha to be proven, there has to be a relationship explainable by the data. An example of an H0 would be that there is no difference in production output between workers who receive a pay increase compared to those who do not. A one tail test for this H0 would be no change in a worker's production output after a pay increase. A two-tail test would show there is a change in production output, increase or decrease, after a pay increase. With an of 0.05, the p-value for a two-tail set of data is 0.025, half of the total p-value in order to account for both sides of the distribution extremes. For the researcher to reject the H0, meaning that there is a statistically significant relationship between sides, the p-value cannot be greater than 0.025. An of and .932 p-value....

...Week 4 Individual Assignment Erwin O. Raymer III PSY/315 Jan. 13th 2014 Jennifer Lapin Week 4 Individual Assignment The five steps of hypothesis testing consist of the following. Restate the question as a research hypothesis and a null hypothesis. This is where an individual would make a research hypothesis, which is basically a prediction intended to be tested in a research study. This prediction is usually based on the researcher’s theory. A null hypothesis is the opposite of the research hypothesis. If the null hypothesis is found to be true then it is not possible for the research hypothesis to be relevant. Same goes for if the research hypothesis is true then the null hypothesis is unable to be relevant as well. Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution. In the hypothesis testing process you want to find out the probability that you could have a sample score as extreme as what you got if your sample was from a population with a distribution of the sort you would have if the null hypothesis were true. That is in the hypothesis testing process, you compare the actual samples score to this comparison distribution. Determine the cut off sample score on the comparison distribution at which the null hypothesis should be rejected. (Critical value) Ideally, before conducting a study, researchers set a target against which they will compare their results. How extreme a sample score they would need to decide against...

...Question 3 a) Although all the ratings are measured based on the same scale (thus, same unit), the scores of the variables have various means and standard deviations, indicating that the rating of each variable distributes differently from one another on the scale. Standardizing the data makes the means of the variables equal to zero and standard deviations to one. The standardization realizes the subsequent analysis of the correlation matrix and makes it easier to interpret the principal components derived later. b) The large correlations between each pair of the ratings are listed in the table below. The variables are defined as follows: Diversions: the diversity of the residents in terms of race and ethnicity. House: the cost of housing for ownership or rent. Transportation: the convenience of traveling between places. Large correlation (r over ±0.5) Make sense? Why? Yes No Diversions & House (r = -0.5267) Since the data are collected from small cities in the US, there is chance that most of these cities have developed from a college town. Thus, the resident population should comprise many international students, faculty and staff. Usually, these people, and also American college students, are not willing or not able to spend much on the rent or to own a house. Diversions & Transportation (r = 0.5045) Again, a college town usually provides a well public transportation system for students to commute from place to place. Education & House ...

...As we begin this project we start with simply placing the four pedals in the correct order onto the pedal board. The placements of these pedals are critical. If we place them in the wrong spot the pedals will not have their full sound potential. The first pedal that must be placed is the Noise Reduction pedal. This pedal muffles unwanted feedback and humming that would initially come from our amp when we have the sound cranked up for live performances. The pedal placement for this pedal is very important because the pedal can also reduce the sound quality of our other pedals if we do not place them in the correct order. The Boss NS-2 is a wonderful pedal choice for the noise reduction pedal because it has a Send/Receive input so that the effect pedals that follow the noise reduction pedal are not affected by the NS-2 noise suppressor. Once this pedal is placed we then need to place our remaining pedals to the left of it on our pedal board. In order from left to right we shall have the noise reduction, distortion, delay and then finally the chorus pedals. Next we will be using our Velcro to ensure that our pedals stay on the board while we play. To do this we need to take our Velcro and line it up with the bottom of our pedals to get a measurement of how long the strips need to be. Then we will take the scissors and carefully cut the Velcro to cover the bottom of our pedals. We then need to place the Velcro on the pedal board so that we may place the pedals on it. The Velcro should...

...Problems 1-10 were each worth one point, since question 9 had two parts, students could receive a total of 11 points for questions 1-10. Question 11, was worth a total of three points. Students would receive a point for each, if they were able to use the equation (15/3) to make three groups, place one manipulative at a time into each group until reaching 15, and counting the tiles to receive the answer (5). Therefore, students had an opportunity to receive 14 total points for the test. The problems that were procedural fluency, asked students to solve basic facts for division and multiplication. These problems were just a simple recall of facts. The conceptual understanding problems asked students to read a short scenario then solve the word problem. This test was highly focused on conceptual understanding, due to the struggle I know students have in completing word problems. These problems really allowed students to apply their knowledge of multiplication, division, and of the world to correctly answer these questions. Finally, the problem solving questions of the assessment, were questions that they had never been asked before and steps they have never had to take before in completing a test. Problem 11, was something very new to students; having them tell/show me how to use manipulatives to solve a division problem. Since this was a new concept for them, I made this problem worth three points, looking for three key aspects, one point for each aspect of the problem...
