| Hand in Monday (Yes. SPSS is working
in the labs as of Fri. afternoon. Also in the classroom):
Longer, more detailed version of the handout for SPSS on two-sample problems here, + in white folder outside my door p.423-4, 7.68 Diet--bus conductor's alcohol parts a and d only! (Reviews one sample t) Two-sample-- (SPSS problems are marked. We'll do SPSS first here) p. 396, 7.30, 7.31 s, SE, d.f. (In 7.31: the null hypothesis is that there is no difference in the CA/CL, the alternative is that failed companies will have had a lower CA/CL than healthy--assets is what you own, liabilities is what you owe. Duh.) A. (SPSS)
(Mimicking the handout.) Examples 7.7,
7.8, 7.10 in Moore, p.393 ff. Produce (& Hand IN) the output
shown in the handout. Write down the p-value for the test, & the 90%
confidence interval for the difference of means. We'll "always"
use the "equal variances not assumed" option.
(SPSS) p.399 7.32 logging If you type in the data , remember you need all the tree species numbers in one column, and a "groups" column for logged or unlogged. (You can use strings or numbers for your logged/unlogged labels) 7.35 (a) chicks. You can do
this efficiently by hand with a back-to-back stemplot, or use SPSS.
SPSS won't do back-to-back stemplots, but you can get separate stemplots
and side-by-side boxplots, using Analyze>Descriptive Statistics>Explore,
using the plots there. Your response variable goes in the Dependent
list, your groups variable goes in the Factor list.
(SPSS) 7.48 The maze scented/unscented again. Here examine whether learning affects performance by comparing "unscented first" to "unscented second" (="scented first"). Reading other output:

Final exam:
Tuesday, Dec. 14, 2-5 p.m. See me if you have a conflict.
The Final will be closed book, but bring one sheet with your notes.
Length 1 1/2 to2 times the length of the midterm exams; comprehensive but
with special attention to the material covered since Exam 3. Reading
but not creating SPSS.

Comparing two means See Day
39 Summary:
"Two-sample tests". Two SRS's, independent, from
distinct
populations. (Populations are normally distributed)
To examine the difference of the two means, µ1
- µ2:
Use diff = xbar1 - xbar2
=
.
Same thing:
Not quite t, but close:
<>For doing by hand:
df = smaller of (n1- 1) and (n2- 1). Will
give a "conservative" result--slightly wider C.I., slightly less significance.
From a computer: df
= complicated formula on p. 403. Produces non-integer degrees
of freedom. Use if both sample sizes are at least 5. Unsuitable
for doing by hand.>
CI : estimate + t* . SEestimate
CI for µ1 - µ2,
difference of
means, is
Test: H0: µ1 - µ2
= 0 same as µ1 = µ2 , "no difference"
always
Ha: µ1
- µ2 > 0 same as µ1
> µ2
or Ha: µ1
- µ2 < 0 same as µ1 < µ2
or Ha: µ1
- µ2
0 same as µ1
µ2 (not equal)
Calculate t, find P-value
(approximate, conservative)
--SPSS will do our computations when we
are given raw data.
