Using a repeated measures design, Researcher A computes the following test statistic,
t (22) = 1.980, and decides to reject the null hypothesis. Using a matched samples design, Researcher B computes the same test statistic, t (22) = 1.980, but decides to retain the null hypothesis. Which of the follow can explain why this occurred?
a) The repeated measure design is a more powerful design than the matched samples design
b) Researcher A computed a one-tailed test; Researcher B computed a two-tailed test
c) Researcher A used a 0.05 level of significance; Researcher B used a 0.10 level of significance
a2. A researcher computes the following test statistic for a related samples t-test: t (22) = 3.14, p < 0.05. What is the proportion of variance for this test using the formula for omega-squared?
a) .28
b) .31
c) .34
d) Not enough information
a3. A researcher reports the following result for a related samples t-test at a 0.05 level of significance: t (40) = 3.02, p < 0.05 (d = 0.20). Is this result significant?
a) no, because the p value is less than 5%
b) Yes, because the p value is less than 5%
c) No, because the effect size is small
d) Yes, because the effect size is large
a4. In a probability distribution:
a) The sum of all probabilities is p=1.0
b) A probability can never be negative
c) The probabilities for all possible outcomes of a random variable are distributed
d) All of the above
