d. \(n = 14,\) two-tailed test, \({s_ + } = 21,\)

Short Answer

Expert verified

The P-value is

a) P = 0.102

b) 0.026 < P < 0.046

c) 0.055 < P < 0.102

d) P = 0

Step by step solution

01

solving for (a):

Upper 鈥 tailed test

n = 12

\({s_ + } = 56\)

The p-value is the probability of obtaining the value if the test statistic, or a value more extreme, assuming that the null hypothesis is true. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column\({P_0}({S_ + } \ge {c_1})\)of the wilcoxon signed 鈥 rank table in the appendix that contain the\({s_ + }\)-value in the column\({c_1}\)in the row n = 12

P = 0.102

02

solving for (b):

Upper 鈥 tailed test

n = 12

\({s_ + } = 62\)

The p-value is the probability of obtaining the value if the test statistic, or a value more extreme, assuming that the null hypothesis is true. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column\({P_0}({S_ + } \ge {c_1})\)of the wilcoxon signed 鈥 rank table in the appendix that contain the\({s_ + }\)-value in the column\({c_1}\)in the row n = 12

0.026 < P < 0.046

03

solving for (c):

lower 鈥 tailed test

n = 12

\({s_ + } = 20\)

Determine the higest possible sum rocks:

\(\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{12} i = \frac{{12\left( {12 + 1} \right)}}{2} = 78\)

The\({s_ + }\)-value corresponding to an upper-tailed test then highest possible sun decresed by\({s_ + }\)- value corresponding to a lower tailed test

78 鈥 20 = 58

The p-value is the probability of obtaining the value if the test statistic, or a value more extreme, assuming that the null hypothesis is true. The P-value is the number (or interval) in the column\({P_0}({S_ + } \ge {c_1})\)of the wilcoxon signed 鈥 rank table in the appendix that contain the\({s_ + }\)-value in the column\({c_1}\)in the row n = 12

0.055 < P < 0.102

04

solving for (d):

Two 鈥 tailed test

n = 25

\({s_ + } = 300\)

Thez-score is the value of the test static decreased by the mean, divided by the standard deviation:

\(z = \frac{{{S_ + } - n\left( {n + 1} \right)/4}}{{\sqrt {n\left( {n + 1} \right)\left( {2n + 1} \right)/24} }} = \frac{{300 - 25\left( {25 + 1} \right)/4}}{{\sqrt {25\left( {25 + 1} \right)\left( {2\left( {25} \right) + 1} \right)/24} }} \approx - 3\)

The p-value is the probability of obtaining the value more extreme or equal to the standardized test static z, assuming that the null hypothesis is true. Determine the probability using normal table in appendix

\(P = P\left( {Z < - 3.70ORZ > 3.70} \right) = 2P\left( {Z < - 3.70} \right) \approx 2\left( 0 \right) = 0\)

P = 0

Most popular questions from this chapter

In a test to determine whether soil pretreated with small amounts of Basic-H makes the soil more permeable to water, soil samples were divided into blocks, and each block received each of the four treatments under study. The treatments were (A) water with .001% Basic-H flooded on control soil, (B) water without Basic-H on control soil, (C) water with Basic-H flooded on soil pretreated with Basic-H, and (D) water without Basic-H on soil pretreated with Basic-H. Test at level .01 to see whether there are any effects due to the different treatments.

In an experiment to study the way in which different anesthetics affect plasma epinephrine concentration, ten dogs were selected and concentration was measured while they were under the influence of the anesthetics isoflurane, halothane, and cyclopropane (鈥淪ympathoadrenal and Hemodynamic Effects of Isoflurane, Halothane, and Cyclopropane in Dogs,鈥 Anesthesiology, 1974: 465鈥470). Test at level .05 to see whether there is an anesthetic effect on concentration

The given data on phosphorus concentration in topsoil for four different soil treatments appeared in the article 鈥淔ertilisers for Lotus and Clover Establishment on a Sequence of Acid Soils on the East Otago Uplands鈥 (N. Zeal. J. of Exptl. Ag., 1984: 119鈥129). Use a distributionfree procedure to test the null hypothesis of no difference in true mean phosphorus concentration (mg/g) for the four soil treatments.

I 8.1 5.9 7.0 8.0 9.0

II 11.5 10.9 12.1 10.3 11.9

III 15.3 17.4 16.4 15.8 16.0

IV 23.0 33.0 28.4 24.6 27.7

Use the large-sample version of the Wilcoxon test at significance level .05 on the data of Exercise 37 in Section 9.3 to decide whether the true mean difference between outdoor and indoor concentrations exceeds .20.

Suppose we wish to test.

: the X and Y distributions are identical

versus

: the X distribution is less spread out than the Y

distribution

The accompanying figure pictures X and Y distributions for which is true. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test is not appropriate in this situation because when is true as pictured, the Y鈥檚 will tend to be at the extreme ends of the combined sample (resulting in small and large Y ranks), so the sum of X ranks will result in a W value that is neither large nor small.

Consider modifying the procedure for assigning ranks as follows: After the combined sample of m + n observations is ordered, the smallest observation is given rank 1, the largest observation is given rank 2, the second smallest is

given rank 3, the second largest is given rank 4, and so on. Then if is true as pictured, the X values will tend to be in the middle of the sample and thus receive large ranks. Let W鈥 denote the sum of the X ranks and consider an uppertailed test based on this test statistic. When is true, every possible set of X ranks has the same probability, so W鈥 has the same distribution as does W when H0 is true. The accompanying data refers to medial muscle thickness for arterioles from the lungs of children who died from sudden infant death syndrome (x鈥檚) and a control group of children (y鈥檚). Carry out the test of versus at level .05.

SIDS 4.0 4.4 4.8 4.9

Control 3.7 4.1 4.3 5.1 5.6

Consult the Lehmann book (in the chapter bibliography) for more information on this test, called the Siegel-Tukey test.
