In an experiment designed to study the effects of illumination level on task performance (“Performance of Complex Tasks Under Different Levels of Illumination,” J. Illuminating Eng., 1976: 235–242), subjects were required to insert a fine-tipped probe into the eyeholes of ten needles in rapid succession both for a low light level with a black background and a higher level with a white background. Each data value is the time (sec) required to complete the task.
\(\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline Subject & (1) & (2) & (3) & (4) & (5) &(6) & (7) & (8) & (9) \\ \hline Black & 25.85 & 28.84 & 32.05 & 25.74 & 20.89 & 41.05 & 25.01 & 24.96 & 27.47 \\ \hline White & 18.28 & 20.84 & 22.96 & 19.68 & 19.509 & 24.98 & 16.61 & 16.07 & 24.59 \\ \hline \end{array}\)
Does the data indicate that the higher level of illumination yields a decrease of more than 5 sec in true average task completion time? Test the appropriate hypotheses using the P-value approach.

The American Journal of Political Science (Apr. 2014) published a study on a woman's impact in mixed-gender deliberating groups. The researchers randomly assigned subjects to one of several 5-member decision-making groups. The groups' gender composition varied as follows: 0 females, 1 female, 2 females, 3 females, 4 females, or 5 females. Each group was the n randomly assigned to utilize one of two types of decision rules: unanimous or majority rule. Ten groups were created for each of the \(\displaystyle{6}\ \times\ {2}={12}\) combinations of gender composition and decision rule. One variable of interest, measured for each group, was the number of words spoken by women on a certain topic per 1,000 total words spoken during the deliberations. a) Why is this experiment considered a designed study? b) Identify the experimental unit and dependent variable in this study. c) Identify the factors and treatments for this study.

A study of young children was designed to increase their intake of whole-grain, rather than regular-grain, snacks. At the end of the study, the 79 children who participated in the study were presented with a choice between a regular-grain snack and a whole-grain alternative. The whole-grain alternative was chosen by 55 children. You want to examine the possibility that the children are equally likely to choose each type of snack.

In 2014, the Centers for Disearse reported the percentage of people 18 years of age and older who smoke. Suppose that a study designed to collect new data on smokers and nonsmokers uses a preliminary estimate of the proportion who smoke of 0.30.
a) How large a sample should be taken to estimate the proportion of smokers in the population with a margin of error of 0.02? Use 95% confidence.(Round your answer up to the nearest integer.)
b)Assume that the study uses your sample size recommendation in part (a) and finds 470 smokers. What is the point estimate of the proportion of smokers in the population? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
c) What is the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of smokers in the population? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answer 1

Factors:
If the response variable is affected by any other variable, then that variable is termed as a factor.
In the experiment, the gender composition and the decision rule are the factors.
Factor levels: The value of the factor used in an experiment is called factor levels.
The gender composition has 5 levels. They are the numbers of women in group like 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
The decision rule has 2 levels. They are unanimous and majority rule.
