8. A start-up company believes that Millenials would enjoy, and support, a team-based obstacle course event where the obstacles focused on non-physical pursuits (like tough Mudder but for nerds). Their venture capital firm is dubious and would like to test it with a study. You have been hired to design and perform this study.

a. State an appropriate null hypothesis. (1 mark)

b. State an appropriate alternative hypothesis. (1 mark)

c. Describe a Type I error in the context of this study. (1 mark)

d. Describe a Type II error in the context of this study. (1 mark)

e. What is an important step that should have been completed before the experiment was designed? (1 mark)

f. Identify the dependent, independent and mediator variables

Answer 1

a. H0: Millenials would enjoy,and support a team based obstacle course event

b.Ha:Millenials would not enjoy,and not support a team based obstacle course event

c. Type 1 error is when Millenials would actually enjoy,and support a team based obstacle course event but we came to conclusion that Millenials would not enjoy,and not support a team based obstacle course event

d. Type 2 error is when Millenials actually would not enjoy,and not support a team based obstacle course event but we came to conclusion that Millenials would enjoy,and support a team based obstacle course event
