Statistics Jeopardy Review - Modified Jeopardy
Name that Chi-square (100) • The only chi-square test where there are multiple populations of interest
Name that Chi-square (200) • The analysis undertaken by a sports enthusiast who knows the percentage of singles, doubles, triples, and home runs hit during regular season who wants to know if a similar pattern exists for spring training games.
Name that Chi-square (300) • The analysis undertaken by an airline to investigate whether males and females were equally bothered by their opposite gender’s use of the common armrest between two seats. • (Assume people were either not bothered, bothered, or highly bothered).
Name that Chi-square (400) • The analysis undertaken by park rangers who relocated troublesome bears, recorded their gender, and observed whether the bears remained in their new location, moved back, or moved to another location, and want to know if there is an association between gender and outcome of relocation.
Name that Chi-square (500) • The analysis undertaken by scientists looking to compare response to whistle calls (alarms) (either enter or run to burrow or stand still/freeze) for squirrels in three different age groups and see if the responses differ between the three age groups.
Analyst Choice (100) • The test procedure that could be used to determine if deer that live directly below designated military air space have higher heart rates than the deer population average, thought to be 51.2 beats per minute.
Analyst Choice (200) • The test used to determine whether lions stalk zebras and wildebeests for differing amounts of time on average. The lions are observed stalking one of the animals only, not both. • (stalk refers to the reduction in predator-prey distance when the prey is unaware or minimally alarmed by the predator)
Analyst Choice (300) • The test used to determine whether students in a special program at a school exhibited the expected 1 point change (growth) based on their third and fourth grade test scores for a standardized exam.
Analyst Choice (400) • The test used to determine whether a predictor is a significant predictor of the response in regression
Analyst Choice (500) • The test used when trying to investigate the effectiveness of mosquito repellent across four different brands, where each observation has the brand and length of time it was effective recorded.
Pesky Assumptions (100) • Requires assumptions about a population of differences
Pesky Assumptions (200) • Not a boxplot, this plot is often utilized to check the assumption of normality (in its many forms) and you cannot determine the number of peaks in the distribution from this plot.
Pesky Assumptions (300) • Require assumptions about expected counts
Pesky Assumptions (400) • Requires the assumptions that two samples be independent and satisfy the randomization and independence conditions as well as the populations either being normally distributed or have large sample sizes for both samples or some combination of those
Pesky Assumptions (500) • The assumption that either a population be normally distributed or the sample size be large is because we are actually interested in the distribution of this quantity.
Interpretation Mania (100) • The distribution of a statistic when thinking about taking many random samples from a distribution and calculating the value of that statistic for each sample
Interpretation Mania (200) • The estimated average magnitude of residuals in regression
Interpretation Mania (300) • An indication of the success of a confidence interval in terms of capturing the population parameter of interest in the long-term over many different samples
Interpretation Mania (400) • The estimated standard deviation of a statistic • (Example: the estimated standard deviation of a sample mean)
Interpretation Mania (500) • The estimated number of standard errors that a sample statistic differs from a hypothesized value when dealing with tests for means
Regression Junction (100) • A regression line is provided as: • The quantity 13.42 in this equation is what quantity?
Regression Junction (200) • The quantity interpreted as the average change in y (the response) for a one unit increase in x (the predictor)
Regression Junction (300) • The proportion of observed variation in the response explained by the linear relationship between the response and the predictor.
Regression Junction (400) • The plot used to check the assumption that there is a constant standard deviation
Regression Junction (500) • Most of the regression assumptions are checked using the residuals which are estimates of these quantities
Test or CI? (200) • Research question: What proportion of adults in the U.S. are in favor of the death penalty for persons convicted of murder?
Test or CI? (400) • Research question: Is the mean human body temperature less than 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit?
Test or CI? (600) • Research question: On average, how much difference is there between the adult heights of a father and his son?
Test or CI? (800) • Research question: Is the mean number of tapeworms in the stomach of medicated sheep less than the mean number of tapeworms in the stomach of unmedicated sheep?
Test or CI? (1000) • Research question: Does response to a new treatment (yes = responds, no = doesn’t respond) for cancer depend on gender of the patient receiving treatment?
ANOVA (200) • The test statistic for an ANOVA is of this type
ANOVA (400) • The appropriate alternative hypothesis for any ANOVA
ANOVA (600) • Each ANOVA test statistic has two of these as associated quantities.
ANOVA (800) • This is the assumption about populations in ANOVA that is not related to normality.
ANOVA (1000) • This procedure is performed after an ANOVA null hypothesis has been rejected to determine where the differences in means are among the different populations.
Design/Sampling (200) • A sampling method where every sample of size n from the population has an equal chance of being selected
Design/Sampling (400) • A sampling method in which every k-th individual in the population is chosen for the sample
Design/Sampling (600) • The optional principle of experimental design
Design/Sampling (800) • The type of bias that could occur when a question is worded a certain way or in any case where some part of the survey design could influence responses
Design/Sampling (1000) • One of the three required principles of experimental design, besides control and replication.
CLT and Related (200) • A random sample taken from a right-skewed parent population will likely have this distribution.
CLT and Related (400) • The sample mean of a random sample taken from a right-skewed parent population will likely have this distribution.
CLT and Related (600) • The standard rule of thumb for when the Central Limit Theorem applies
CLT and Related (800) • If the population distribution is normal, then this distribution for the sample mean will already be normal. • (I.E. what distribution do the CLT and related results talk about?)
CLT and Related (1000) • The CLT is not relevant for these tests. • (Multiple correct answers)
Probability (200) • An example of a discrete probability distribution
Probability (400) • The probability that a randomly selected tree is older than 50 years given that it is on Amherst College property is an example of this type of probability.
