Question 1 In June, 2021, Gallup published an online article titled Public Backs Requiring COVID-19 Vaccine to Attend School (Links to an external site.) by Jeffrey M. Jones. According to the article, 61% of U.S. adults who responded to the survey favor requiring College students to be vaccinated in order to attend classes (including classes in fall 2021). A representative random sample of 3,572 adults U.S. adults, aged 18 and older, were surveyed. Are conditions met for calculating a confidence interval? Support your conclusion mathematically and show your work. If conditions are met, use your graphing calculator to calculate a 95% confidence interval that estimates the proportion of U.S. adults who favor requiring College students to be vaccinated in order to attend classes. State your results in context. Question 2 Login and open StatCrunch (directions). Open your IAT sample data set in StatCrunch (directions) We will use a 90% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion of participants born-female in our chosen IAT data set. So, you are tasked with using your IAT sample to calculate a 90% confidence interval that estimates the population proportion of participants born-female in your particular IAT. But, you are missing a piece of information that would allow you to use your graphing calculator to find the confidence interval. What piece of information is missing? Even though we cannot readily use our graphing calculators, StatCrunch can calculate the confidence interval for us! Use StatCrunch to find the 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of female participants in your particular IAT (directions - opens in a new tab). Highlight and copy everything in your StatCrunch output window and paste it in your response. Identify the sample proportion (?? )(p^) in the StatCrunch output table. Then determine whether conditions are met for using the confidence interval to estimate the population proportion of female participants in your chosen IAT. Show your work. If conditions are met, estimate the population proportion of female participants in your particular IAT, and state your conclusion in context. If conditions are not met, explain what a researcher could do so that conditions are met. Based on your analysis, do you think the population of participants in your chosen IAT are representative of the U.S. population? Explain. https://www.statcrunch.com/app/index.php?dataid=38...

Part of your task as a scholar-practitioner is to act as a critical consumer of research and ask informed questions of published material. Sometimes, claims are made that do not match the results of the analysis. Unfortunately, this is why statistics is sometimes unfairly associated with telling lies. These misalignments might not be solely attributable to statistical nonsense, but also “user error.” One of the greatest areas of user error is within the practice of hypothesis testing and interpreting statistical significance. As you continue to consume research, be sure and read everything with a critical eye and call out statements that do not match the results. For this Assignment, you will examine statistical significance and meaningfulness based on sample statements.To prepare for this Assignment:Review the Week 5 Scenarios found in this week’s Learning Resources and select two of the four scenarios for this Assignment. For additional support, review the Skill Builder: Evaluating P Values and the Skill Builder: Statistical Power, which you can find by navigating back to your Blackboard Course Home Page. From there, locate the Skill Builder link in the left navigation pane. For this Assignment:Critically evaluate the two scenarios you selected based upon the following points:Critically evaluate the sample size.Critically evaluate the statements for meaningfulness.Critically evaluate the statements for statistical significance.Based on your evaluation, provide an explanation of the implications for social change.Use proper APA format and citations, and referencing.Week 5 Scenarios:1.The p-value was slightly above conventional threshold, but was described as “rapidly approaching significance” (i.e., p=.06). An independent samples t test was used to determine whether student satisfaction levels in a quantitative reasoning course differed between the traditional classroom and on-line environments.The samples consisted of students in four face-to-face classes at a traditional state university (n=65) and four online classes offered at the same university (n=69). Students reported their level of satisfaction on a five-point scale, with higher values indicating higher levels of satisfaction.Since the study was exploratory in nature, levels of significance were relaxed to the .10 level. The test was significant t(132) = 1.8, p= .074, wherein students in the face-to-face class reported lower levels of satisfaction (M= 3.39, SD= 1.8)than did those in the online sections (M= 3.89, SD= 1.4).We therefore conclude that on average, students in online quantitative reasoning classes have higher levels of satisfaction.The results of this study are significant because they provide educators with evidence of what medium works better in producing quantitatively knowledgeable practitioners.2.A results report that does not find any effect and also has small sample size (possibly no effect detected due to lack of power). A one-way analysis of variance was used to test whether a relationship exists between educational attainment and race. The dependent variable of education was measured as number of years of education completed. The race factor had three attributes of European American (n=36), African American (n=23) and Hispanic (n=18). Descriptive statistics indicate that on average, European Americans have higher levels of education (M=16.4, SD=4.6), with African Americans slightly trailing (M= 15.5, SD=6.8) and Hispanics having on average lower levels of educational attainment (M=13.3, SD=6.1). The ANOVA was not significant F(2,74) = 1.789, p= .175, indicating there are no differences in educational attainment across these three races in the population.The results of this study are significant because they shed light on the current social conversation about inequality. 3.Statistical significance is found in a study, but the effect in reality is very small (i.e., there was a very minor difference in attitude between men and women). Were the results meaningful?An independent samples t test was conducted to determine whether differences exist between men and women on cultural competency scores. The samples consisted of 663 women and 650 men taken from a convenience sample of public, private,and non-profit organizations. Each participant was administered an instrument that measured his or her current levels of cultural competency. The © 2016 Laureate Education, Inc. Page 2of 2cultural competency score ranges from 0 to 10,with higher scores indicating higher levels of cultural competency. The descriptive statistics indicate women have higher levels of cultural competency (M= 9.2, SD= 3.2) than men (M= 8.9, SD=2.1). The results were significant t(1311) = 2.0, p<.05, indicating that women are more culturally competent than are men. These results tell us that gender-specific interventions targeted toward men may assist in bolstering cultural competency. 4.A study has results that seem fine, but there is no clear association to social change. What is missing? A correlation test was conducted to determine whether a relationship exists between level of income and job satisfaction. The sample consisted of 432 employees equally represented across public, private,and non-profit sectors. The results of the test demonstrate a strong positive correlation between the two variables,r=.87, p<.01, showing that as level of income increases, job satisfaction increases as well.

In this course project, you will design, conduct, and analyze results from your own experiment to test the sensory discrimination of a person who claims to be able to taste the difference between two  closely  related  items.  You  can  select  your  own  items.  Do  not  use  alcoholic  beverages. Examples are as follow: -Regular coffee vs. decaffeinated coffee -Coke vs. Pepsi -Heinz ketchup vs. Hunt’s ketchup  -Godiva dark chocolate vs. Lindt dark chocolate
