Write a report of the different research design with exceptional of experimental research design.
A survey of high school students was done to examine whether students had ever driven a car after consuming a substantial amount of alcohol (1=yes, 0=no). Data was collected on their sex (male/female), race (White/non-White), and grade level (9,10,11,12). Researchers realized that the impact of race on consuming alcohol before driving might vary by grade level and decided to fit the following model.

- With the pandemic, cleaning and sanitation products have become increasingly more popular. Pfizer is trying to expand their sales and market share among producers of hand sanitizer and would like to purchase advertising space on a major TV network during prime time. CBS and NBC seem to be the most likely options but Pfizer would like to test and see if there is really a difference in the viewership (which would influence their decision). Over the past 20 weeks, CBS has averaged 5.7 million viewers on Monday nights at the 8 PM timeslot with a standard deviation of .65 million viewers. NBC on the other hand has averaged 6.2 million viewers with a standard deviation of 1.3 million viewers. ~ With an alpha of .05, construct a hypothesis test to see if there is a difference in viewership between the two networks. ~ Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference. ~ Which network would you go with based on your tests?arrow_forwardWith the pandemic, cleaning and sanitation products have become increasingly more popular.

- Help me pleasearrow_forwardA group of educators want to determine how effective tutoring is in raising students' grades in a math class, so they arrange free tutoring for those who want it. Then they compare final exam grades for the group that took advantage of the tutoring and the group that did not. Suppose the group participating in the tutoring tended to receive higher grades on the exam. Does that show that the tutoring worked? If not, explain why not and suggest a confounding variable. Question content area bottom Part 1 Choose the correct answer below. A. Because this was an observational study, it only shows an association; it does not show that the tutoring worked. It could be that an insufficient number of students were studied to show that the tutoring worked. B. The study shows that the tutoring worked. C.

- The manager Concerned about her current customer base, manager Andersen started to think of factors that might affect the attractiveness of an auditing firm. Of course, the service quality provided and the fees charged by the auditor seem two important factors. Next, she decides that the reputation of the auditing firm also needs to be included in the framework as an independent variable. As illustrated by the dramatic effects of recent auditing scandals, reputation seems especially important for large auditors (i.e., auditing firms that are large in size). Finally, manager Andersen also thinks that the proximity of the auditing firm to the customer is another variable to be included as an independent variable. Proximity very likely affects the possibility for the client to personally meet with the auditors on a regular basis and she knows from her own contact with customers that they perceive personal interactions as quite important.

The production department needed some guidance with respect to qualifications needed by an operator. Is age a factor? Is a person's mechanical aptitude score important? To evaluate the factors needed to estimate performance on the new processing machines, four variables were selected: x1 = Length of time an employee was in the industryx2 = Mechanical aptitude test scorex3 = Prior on-the-job ratingx4 = Age Performance on the new machine is designated y.Thirty employees were randomly selected and data were collected for each of the variables.
