1.Some IQ tests are standardized based on the assumption that the population mean is 100 and the standard deviation is 15. Test graders decide to reject this hypothesis if a random sample of 25 people has a mean IQ greater than 110. Suppose the true mean of the population is actually 105. Assuming that IQ scores are normally distributed, what's the probability of a Type II error?

  • .048
  • .9995
  • .952
  • .0005

2.Imagine you're a researcher and you need to perform a one-sided test of an alternative hypothesis. You decide to conduct a significance test at the .05 level. Which of the following ranges of z-scores would make the test statistic significant at .05 (one-tail) but not at .01?

  • z > 1.60
  • 1.645
  • -1.96
  • z
  • 1.645
