McAllister et al. (2012) compared varsity football and hockey players with varsity athletes from noncontact sports to determine

whether exposure to head impacts during one season have an effect on cognitive performance. In the study, tests of new learning performance were significantly poorer for the contact sport athletes compared to the noncontact sport athletes. The following table presents data similar to the results obtained in the study.
Noncontact Athletes:
10, 8, 7, 9, 13, 7, 6, 12
Contact Athletes:
7, 4, 9, 3, 7, 6, 10, 2
a. Are the test scores significantly lower for the contact sport athletes than for the noncontact athletes? Use a one-tailed test with \alpha=.05
t-critical=
t=
b. Compute the value of (percentage of variance accounted for) for these data.
r^2= a. 0.123, b. 0.239, c. 0.138, d. 0.264

Answer:

t _{critical} = 1.760

t = 2.2450

d. 0.264

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

H_o: \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0

Alternative hypothesis;

H_a : \mu_1 - \mu_2 > 0\\

The pooled variance t-Test would have been determined if the population variance are the same.

S_p^2 = \dfrac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S^2_2}{(n_1-1)+(n_2-1)}

S_p^2 = \dfrac{(8-1)2.507^2+(8-1)2.8282^2}{(8-1)+(8-1)}

S_p^2 = 7.14

The t-test statistics can be computed as:

t= \dfrac{(x_1-x_2)-(\mu_1 - \mu_2)}{\sqrt{Sp^2 ( \dfrac{1}{n} +\dfrac{1}{n_2})}}

t= \dfrac{(9-6)-0}{\sqrt{7.14 ( \dfrac{1}{8} +\dfrac{1}{8})}}

t= \dfrac{3}{1.336}

t = 2.2450

Degree of freedom df = (n_1 -1) + ( n_2 +1 )

df = (8-1)+(8-1)

df = 7 + 7

df = 14

At df = 14 and ∝ = 0.05;

t _{critical} = 1.760

Decision Rule: To reject the null hypothesis if the t-test is greater than the critical value.

Conclusion: We reject H_o and there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the test scores for contact address s less than Noncontact athletes.

To calculate r²

The percentage of the variance is;

r^2 = \dfrac{t^2}{t^2 + df}

r^2 = \dfrac{2.2450^2}{2.2450^2 + 14}

r^2 = \dfrac{5.040025}{5.040025+ 14}

r^2 = 0.2647

What do you think Thomas Edison meant by the word perspiration? How do those words apply to what you've learned about businesses
EastWind [94]

1. Thomas Edison used "perspiration" to refer to the physical and mental efforts needed to achieve a meaningful purpose in any human endeavor.

2. As it applies to businesses, it is not enough to develop a business idea or plan, as the business person must be prepared to execute and carry the business idea or plan to fruition.

<h3>What does Thomas Edison's reference mean?</h3>

According to Thomas Edison, the superior intellect or creativity we associate with great minds comes from inspiration (the idea) and perspiration (hard work).

Perspiration literarily refers to the sweat that emanates as someone works hard.

Without a strong working ethic, it will be impossible to achieve great results from only the proposition of great ideas or business plans.
