Referring to Exercise 20.3,

a) Repeat the analysis using a suitable randomization test.

b) How well do the two answers agree? Why don’t they agree exactly?

I frequently ask you to use SPSS or R to solve a problem. You should have no problem with SPSS if you stick with the “Legacy” analyses. You should be able to use R by modifying the code that I give on the Web page for this chapter: http://www.uvm .edu/~dhowell/fundamentals9/Supplements/Chapter20R.html

Exercise 20.3

Nurcombe and Fitzhenry-Coor (1979) have argued that training in diagnostic techniques should lead a clinician to generate and test more hypotheses in coming to a decision about a case. Suppose we take 10 psychiatric residents who are just beginning their residency and use them as participants. We ask them to watch a videotape of an interview and to record their thoughts on the case every few minutes. We then count the number of hypotheses each resident includes in his or her written remarks. The experiment is repeated with the same residents at the end of the residency with a comparable videotape. The data are given.
