4. Imagine an experiment in which subjects who smoke cigarettes are randomly assigned to fear and no-fear conditions. In the fear condition they read a description of lung cancer; in the no-fear condition they read a paragraph on a neutral topic. Afterward both groups are asked the likelihood that they will stop smoking during the next year (on a 1-9 scale, where 9 = very likely). The data looked like this: Fear 567 a) For each condition, calculate X, SS, o, and S. No Fear 114 b) Calculated and g from the data (i.e., using the appropriate standard deviations). Calculate t based on d and again based on g. Now reverse and calculate d and g from the t. 4.
