A sports psychologist wants to know if weight training leads to a more positive mood. To assess the effects of weight training on mood, she obtained a sample of 10 people who had never weight trained and measured their mood. She then instructed them in proper weight training techniques and had them follow a training program for one month. At the end of the month, the participants' mood was measured again. The mood scale was scored such that higher numbers indicate a more positive mood. D is computed as after - prior. 1. Compute the effect size for this study: a) 0.66, b) 2.08, c) 0.43, d) 1.83 2. How large is this effect: a) small, b) small-medium, c) medium, d) large 3. Which of the following is the best summary of the results of this study: a) Participants reported a significantly more positive mood after weight training than before weight training, b) Participants reported a significantly less positive mood after weight training than before weight training, c) there was no significant difference between the moods prior to weight training and the moods after weight training. Participant Prior to Weight Training After Weight Training D (after-prior) 1 5 7 2 2 4 6 2 3 3 6 3 4 2 1 -1 5 5 6 1 6 6 6 0 7 7 7 0 8 6 5 -1 9 2 4 2 10 6 6 0

Eight individuals indicated their attitudes toward socialized medicine before and after listening to a pro-socialized medicine lecture. Attitudes were assessed on a scale from 1 to 7, with higher scores indicating more positive attitudes. The attitudes before and after listening to the lecture were indicated in the table below. Individuals 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Before 3 4 3 5 2 5 3 4 After 6 6 3 7 4 6 7 6 At α = 0.1, test the claim that the attitudes toward socialized medicine are higher after listening to the lecture.

Tai Chi is often recommended as a way to improve flexibility in the elderly. Below are before- and-after flexibility ratings (on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the most flexible) for a random sample of 8 men in their 80s who took Tai Chi lessons for six months. Subject | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H Flexibility rating after Tai Chi | 2 | 4 | 3 | 3 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 10 Flexibility rating before Tai Chi | 1 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 1 | 4 | 2 | 10 (a) Explain why these are paired data. (b) Calculate and interpret the mean difference. (c) Researchers would like to estimate the true mean difference (after - before) in flexibility rating for men in their 80s who take Tai Chi lessons for 6 months. Determine if the conditions for constructing a 95% confidence interval are met. (d) The 95% confidence interval is (0.0488, 2.26). Does this interval provide convincing evidence that taking Tai Chi lessons for 6 months increases flexibility for men like these?
