Reading and grades (10.2) Summary statistics for the two groups from Minitab are provided below.

(a) Explain why it is acceptable to use two-sample t procedures in this setting.

(b) Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the mean English grade for light and heavy readers.

Why men and women play sports Do men and women participate in sports for the same reasons? One goal for sports participants is social comparision鈥攖he desire to win or to do better than other people. Another is mastery鈥攖he desire to improve one鈥檚 skills or to try one鈥檚 best. A study on why students participate in sports collected data from independent random samples of 67 male and 67 female under-graduates at a large university 15 Each student was classified into one of four categories based on his or her responses to a questionnaire about sports goals. The four categories were high social comparison鈥� high mastery (HSC-HM), high social comparison鈥� low mastery (HSC-LM), low social comparison鈥揾igh mastery (LSC-HM), and low social comparison鈥搇ow mastery (LSC-LM). One purpose of the study was to compare the goals of male and female students. Here are the data displayed in a two-way table: Observed Counts for Sports Goals

(a) Check that the conditions for performing the chi-square test are met.

(b) Use Table C to find the P-value. Then use your calculator鈥檚 C2cdf command.

(c) Interpret the P-value from the calculator in context.

(d) What conclusion would you draw? Justify your answer.

Sorry, no chi-square We would prefer to learn from teachers who know their subject. Perhaps even pre-school children are affected by how knowledgeable they think teachers are. Assign 48three- and four-year-olds at random to be taught the name of a new toy by either an adult who claims to know about the toy or an adult who claims not to know about it. Then ask the children to pick out a picture of the new toy in a set of pictures of other toys and say its name. The response variable is the count of right answers in four tries. Here are the data:

The researchers report that children taught by the teacher who claimed to be knowledgeable did significantly better 蠂2=20.24,P<0.05. Explain why this result isn't valid.

The General Social Survey asked a random sample of adults their opinion about whether astrology is very scientific, sort of scientific, or not at all scientific. Here is a two-way table of counts for people in the sample who had three levels of higher education:

(a) Make a bar graph that compares opinions about astrology for the three education categories. Describe what you see.

(b) Minitab output for a chi-square test using these data is shown below. Carry out the test. What conclusion do you draw?

Refer to Exercise 27. Do the data provide convincing evidence of a difference in the distributions of sports goals for male and female undergraduates at the university?

(a) State appropriate null and alternative hypotheses for a significance test to help answer this question.

(b) Calculate the expected counts. Show your work.

(c) Calculate the chi-square statistic. Show your work
