Q17
A large national bank charges local companies for using their services. A bank official reported the results of a regression analysis designed to predict the bank's charges (Y) -- measured in dollars per month -- for services rendered to local companies. One independent variable used to predict service charge to a company is the company's sales revenue (X) -- measured in millions of dollars. Data for 21 companies who use the bank's services were used to fit the model:
E(Y) = ß0 + ß1X
The results of the simple linear regression are provided below.
Y = -2,700+20X, syx = 65, two-tailed p value = 0.034 (for testing ß1)
Referring to the Table, interpret the p value for testing whether ß1 exceeds 0.
Select one:
a.
There is sufficient evidence (at the α = 0.05) to conclude that sales revenue (X) is a useful linear predictor of service charge (Y).
b.
There is insufficient evidence (at the α = 0.10) to conclude that sales revenue (X) is a useful linear predictor of service charge (Y).
c.
Sales revenue (X) is a poor predictor of service charge (Y).
d.
For every $1 million increase in sales revenue, we expect a service charge to increase $0.034.

Q20
One criterion used to evaluate employees in the assembly section of a large factory is the number of defective pieces per 1,000 parts produced. The quality control department wants to find out whether there is a relationship between years of experience and defect rate. Since the job is repetitious, after the initial training period any improvement due to a learning effect might be offset by a loss of motivation. A defect rate is calculated for each worker in a yearly evaluation. The results for 100 workers are given in the table below.
Years Since Training Period

Defect Rate High 6 9 9

Q21
The Journal of Business Venturing reported on the activities of entrepreneurs during the organization creation process. As part of a designed study, a total of 71 entrepreneurs were interviewed and divided into 3 groups: those that were successful in founding a new firm (n1 = 34), those still actively trying to establish a firm (n2 = 21), and those who tried to start a new firm but eventually gave up (n3 = 16). The total number of activities undertaken (e.g., developed a business plan, sought funding, looked for facilities) by each group over a specified time period during organization creation was measured. The objective is to compare the mean number of activities of the 3 groups of entrepreneurs. Because of concerns over necessary assumption of the parametric analysis, it was decided to use a nonparametric analysis. Identify the nonparametric method that would be used to analyze the data.

Q27
As a business statistics project, a student examined the factors that determine parking meter rates throughout the campus and downtown area. The campus is a group of buildings located in the center of downtown, with an open central quadrangle. Data were collected for the price of parking per hour and the number of blocks to the quadrangle. In addition, two dummy variables were coded to indicate the location of the parking meter (See below). The population regression model hypothesized is
Yi = ß0 + ß1x1i + ß2x2i + ß3x3i + ei
where
Y is the price per hour
x1 is a numerical variable = the number of blocks to the quadrangle
(Note that if x1 is less than 2, then the meter is on campus; if x1 is less than 3, then the meter is downtown)
x2 is a dummy variable = 1 if inside downtown and off campus, 0 otherwise
x3 is a dummy variable = 1 if outside downtown and off campus, 0 otherwise

Q31
Psychologists have found that people are generally reluctant to transmit bad news to their peers.
This phenomenon has been termed the "MM effect." To investigate the cause of the MM effect, 40 undergraduates at Duke University participated in an experiment. Each subject was asked to administer an IQ test to another student and then provide the test taker with his or her percentile score. Unknown to the subject, the test taker was a bogus student who was working with the researchers. The experimenters manipulated two factors: subject visibility and success of test taker, each at two levels. Subject visibility was either visible or not visible to the test taker. Success of the test taker was either visible or not visible to the test taker. Success of the test taker was either top 20% or bottom 20%. Ten subjects were randomly assigned to each of the 2 x 2 = 4 experimental conditions, then the time (in seconds) between the end of the test and the delivery of the percentile score from the subject to the test taker was measured. (This variable is called the latency to feedback.) The data were subjected to appropriate analyses with the following results.
Source df SS MS F PR > F
Subject visibility 1 1380.24 1380.24 4.26 0.043
Test taker success 1 1325.16 1325.16 4.09 0.050

Referring to the table, in the context of this study, interpret the statement: "Subject visibility and test taker success interact."
Select one:
a.
The difference between the mean feedback time for visible and nonvisible subjects depends on the success of the test taker.
b.
The difference between the mean feedback time for test takers scoring in the top 20% and bottom 20% depends on the visibility of the subject.
c.
The relationship between feedback time and subject visibility depends on the success of the test taker.

All of the above are correct interpretations

Q35
A study published in the American Journal of Public Health was conducted to determine whether the use of seat belts in motor vehicles depends on ethnic status in San Diego County. A sample of 792 children treated for injuries sustained from motor vehicle accidents was obtained, and each child was classified according to (1) ethnic status (Hispanic or non-Hispanic) and (2) seat belt usage (worn or not worn) during the accident. The number of children in each category is given in the table below.
Hispanic Non-Hispanic
Seat belts worn 31 148
Seat belts not worn 283 330

chi-square test for equal proportions in a one-way table.
c.
ANOVA F test for interaction in a 2 x 2 factorial design.
d.
chi-square test for a 2 x 2 factorial design.
Q36
If a group of independent variables are not significant individually but are significant as a group at a specified level of significance, this is most likely due to:
Select one:

b.
the presence of dummy variables.
c.

Q37
A campus researcher wanted to investigate the factors that affect visitor travel time in a complex, multilevel building on campus. Specifically, he wanted to determine whether different building signs (building maps versus wall signage) affect the total amount of time visitors require to reach their destination and whether that time depends on whether the starting location is inside or outside the building. Three subjects were assigned to each of the combinations of signs and starting locations, and travel time in seconds from beginning to destination was recorded. How should the data be analyzed?
Starting Room
Interior Exterior
Wall Signs 141 224
119 339
238 139
Map 85 226
94 129

Select one:
a.
Completely randomized design
b.
Randomized block design
c.
2 x 2 factorial design
d.
Kruskal-Wallis rank test
Q38
The sample correlation coefficient between X and Y is 0.375. It has been found out that the p-value is 0.256 when testing H0: ρ = 0 against the two-sided alternative H1: ρ ≠ 0. To test H0: ρ = 0 against the one-sided alternative H1: ρ > 0 at a significance level of 0.193, the p-value is
Select one:
a.
0.256/2
b.
0.256
c.
1 - 0.256
d.
1 - 0.256/2
Q39
A manager of a product sales group believes the number of sales made by an employee (Y) depends on how many years that employee has been with the company (X1) and how he/she scored on a business aptitude test (X2). A random sample of 8 employees provides the following:
Employee Y X1 X2
1 100 10 7
2 90 3 10
3 80 8 9
4 70 5 4
5 60 5 8
6 50 7 5
7 40 1 4
8 30 1 1
Referring to the table, what is the estimated coefficient for the variable representing scores on the aptitude test, b2?
Select one:
a.
0.998
b.
3.103
c.
4.698
d.
21.293
