  1. SCENARIO 5

A psychologist investigates the effect of whether or not the presence of an audience makes people run faster. She hypothesizes that people who run in front of an audience have faster running times (smaller number in minutes) than those who do not run in front of an audience. Ten people are matched based on their weight because weight can affect running time. Then, 5 are randomly assigned to the group that runs in front of an audience (X1) and the other 5 matched pairs are assigned to the group that does not run in front of an audience (X2). Use the data in Table 1 below to help you conduct a paired samplest-test to test the null hypothesis at the .05 level of significance.

QUESTION 29

  1. The critical t value for SCENARIO 5 is -2.13 and the observed t score is -12.53. Select the correct decision and explanation about whether or not you should reject H0for SCENARIO 5.

Reject the null hypothesis because the t observed value of -12.53 is more negative than the t critical value of -2.13

Do notreject the null hypothesis because the t observed value of -12.53 is no different than the t critical value of -2.13

Do not reject the null hypothesis because the t observed value of -12.53 is more than the t critical value of -2.13

Reject the null hypothesis because the t observed value of -12.53 is greater than the t critical value of -2.13

QUESTION 30

  1. Select the best interpretation of the results for SCENARIO 5

There is no way to determine this

When individuals are matched by weight, those who run in front of an audience have faster running times than those who do not run in front of an audience.

When individuals are measured twice, those who run in front of an audience have faster running times than those who do not run in front of an audience.

When individuals are matched by weight, those who run in front of an audience have slower running times than those who do not run in front of an audience.
