Null and Alternate Hypotheses Practice SheetPractice sheet – signficance tests and more hypos Null and Alternate Hypotheses Practice SheetNull and Alternate Hypotheses Practice Sheet – Part 2
1. Do you accept or reject the null if the probability value associated with the test statistic is as
indicated? Assume these are all two-tailed tests.
a) People who exercise 4 days per week or more are happier than those who exercise less than 4
days per week. p = .19
b) College students are more stressed than their peers who do not attend college. p = .07
c) Correctional officers have more negative attitudes towards inmates than college students. p =
.03
d) Amount of sleep and ability to focus are positively related p = .001
e) Children who are read to regularly have bigger vocabularies than those who are not read to
regularly. p = .049
f)
Rates of preventable diseases in a neighborhood are negatively related to the amount of
medical practices in the neighborhood. p = .95
g) Getting child care subsidies (money from the government to help pay for child care) help lowincome working parents stay in their jobs longer. p = .10
2. A professor did a study to see if class attendance predicted exam performance. The hypotheses were
as follows:
H0: There is no relationship between exam scores and class attendance.
H1. Exams scores are positively related to class attendance (what she believes will happen!)
H2: Exam score are negatively related to class attendance.
She runs a ONE-TAILED test and the results come out in support of H2. What should she do? Explain
your answer.
3. State the Null and Alternate hypotheses for the following. REMEMBER – identify the type of variables
you are dealing with first so you state it properly.
a. The Coca-cola company wants to know if Coke is rated higher on a scale of 1 -10 (10 = tastes great) by
consumers than Pepsi.
