Q#6: The researcher recorded the amount of time each bird spent in the plain chamber during a 60-minute session. Suppose the study produced a mean of M = 34.5 minutes on the plain chamber with SS = 210 for a sample of n = 14 birds. Construct the 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean amount of time spent on the plain side for the population of birds.

Q#7: Standardized measures seem to indicate that the average level of anxiety has increased gradually over the past 50 years (Twenge, 2000). In the 1950s, the average score on the Child Manifest Anxiety Scale was μ = 14.1. A sample of n = 15 of today’s children produces a mean score of M = 23.3 with SS = 240. Based on the sample, has there been a significant change in the average level of anxiety since the1950s? Use a two-tailed test with α = 0.01.
