+ You are interested in knowing whether different types of reading groups are associated with different average reading proficiencies among young children. To examine this issue, you assign 15 first graders to three different reading groups: (1) reading aloud with an adult; (2) reading aloud with an older student; and (3) reading aloud with a classmate. At the end of the reading sessions, you give the students a reading quiz. The scores for the 15 students in the sample are as follows: With Adult With Older Student 8 With Classmate 7 4 6 7 6 8 8 7 9 6 7 10 8 9 Perform the appropriate hypothesis test at alpha = .01 to determine whether reading proficiency of first graders differs across the three types of reading programs. Be sure that you include all five steps discussed in class. Describe your conclusion in one complete sentence. Then compute the appropriate measure of the strength of the relationship and interpret this value in a complete sentence (WHETHER THE RELATIONSHIP IS SIGNIFICANT OR NOT). Step 1: State the hypothesis Step 2: Choose alpha Step 3: Find critical values of F or F(critical) Step 4: Find F(obtained) Step 5: Compare F(obtained) to F(critical) Step 6: State Decision Step 7: State Conclusion + You are interested in knowing whether different types of reading groups are associated with different average reading proficiencies among young children.
