STATISTICS
Answer the given problem. Analyze what tool should be used.
1. IQ scores for three different blood lead levels was measured. If we use three categories of blood lead levels with measured verbal IQ scores, we get the computer output which is summarized in table form. Using a 0.05 significance test, test the claim that the three categories of blood lead level have the same mean verbal IQ score. Does exposure to lead appear to have an effect on verbal IQ scores? Interpret the table below.
| Source of variation | df | Sum of squares | Mean squares | Computed f | p-value |
| LEAD | 2 | 142 | 71 | 0.39 | 0.677 |
| Error | 118 | 21441 | 182 | ||
| Total | 120 | 21584 |
Follow the steps in solving the problem, namely:
1. Hypothesis ex. H0: = 9.0 H1: 9.0 2. Level of significance ex. = 0.01 3. Test Statistic ex. z = x - 0 / / n 4. Critical Region ex. graph and /2 = +-0.025 5. Computation ex. compute using formula 6. Decision ex. accept H0 since the computed z-value falls in the region of acceptance. 7. Conclusion ex. there is no reason to believe the ...
