In today’s “wired” society, students believe they can multitask.
Research suggests that 5% of individuals truly have the ability to
multitask. Researchers are interested in finding out if students
can multitask or if they perform worse while multitasking. In an
introductory statistics class, students were randomly divided into
two groups: texting group and cell phone off group. 92 students
were required to send three text messages during the lecture and 92
students were required to turn off their cell phones....

A study surveys students to determine the amount of Facebook use
during the time they are doing Math homework. Students are
classified into three groups: Non- User, Rarely-Use, Regularly-Use,
and their Math scores are recorded. The following data summarize
the results.

In
a random sample of 23 people aged 18-24, the mean amount of time
spent using the internet is 45.1 hours per month with a standard
deviation of 28.4 hours per month. Assume that the amount of time
spent using the internet in this age group is normally distributed.
1. if one were to calculate a confidence interval for the
population mean, would it be a z or t confidence interval? use the
flow chart to explain your answer.

1) A developmental psychologist wants to determine if
a recently created computer training program can increase the
working memory ability of high-school students. A sample of 40
students are given the reverse digit span test at the beginning of
the school year and then again after 4 weeks of training. Are there...

Do male and female students study the
same amount per week? In 2007, 58 sophomore business students were
surveyed at a large university that has more than 1,000 sophomore
business students each year. The file Study Times
contains the gender and the number of hours spent studying in a
typical week for the sampled students.
At the 0.05 level of significance, is there a difference in the
variance of the study time for male students and female
students?

Several years ago, a group of Honda Dealerships determined that
the average amount of days automobiles stay on dealers' lots was
equal to 22.1 days. They now believe that the mean time has changed
and would like to test their belief at a significance level of
0.05. Results of a sample of 50 cars on various lots can be found
in the file Honda Hypothesis Test. Use this information to answer
the next several questions and ultimately decide whether or...
