Do players in the NBA, especially large players like Shaquille O’Neal, have a greater ABILITY to score when they are rested?  The graph at right shows Shaq’s distribution of points scored in his 12 games with no rest (meaning he played in a game the day before) and his 41 games where he had at least 1 day’s rest during the 2009-10 regular season.

  

State the Null hypotheses we are interested in testing

What is 

Shaq had the SAME ABILITY to score after at least one days rest and after no rest

Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, plays its home games at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Their men’s basketball team won the NCAA championship in 2010.Their zealous fans are called the “Cameron Crazies”. Do those fans help the Blue Devils play better defense?Here are the points allowed by the Duke men’s basketball team at home and on the road for 2009-10

Points allowed at home:

53 59 70 56 67 56 55 50

Points allowed on road:

71 88 47 63 54 74 49 79

Simulate using note cards

What is

Get 16 cards write the scores on the cards.  Shuffle divide into 2 piles for home and the road.  Calculate new test statistic and REPEAT.

Does resting between sets help athletes who are weight training to lift more weight? An experiment was conducted in which 50 members of a varsity football team were each randomly assigned to one of two treatments. In both treatments, subjects were asked to bench press 75% of their maximum bench press weight. The first treatment was sets of 10 reps with a 5-minute rest in between sets. The second treatment was sets of 10 reps with a 2-minute rest in between sets. Each athlete continued to do sets until exhaustion and then the total number of reps was recorded. 

What are the Explanatory Variables

What is 

the length of rest period 

(2 minutes or 5 minutes).

What do we do if our p-value is 2%

What is 

We reject Ho and can rule out random chance .  They had a greater ability...

In 2004 the Boston Red Sox won baseball’s World Series for the first time since 1918. Did their team that year have a greater ABILITY to score runs at home? Here are dotplots summarizing their 81 PERFORMANCES at home (H) and their 81 PERFORMANCES on the road (R) during the 2004 regular season.

State the Alternative Hypotheses we are interested in testing

What is

The 2004 Red Sox had a greater ability to score runs at home and on the road

What happens to our flag in SRIS applet if we have a negative test statistic.

In our experiment the class did at the basketball court, What was the explanatory variables?

What is

What kind of error have we made if we  reject Ho

What is

a type 1 error.

In sports such as tennis, players often think it makes a difference which side of the court they are on. Suppose that in a particular match, Kathy wins 22 of the 37 points when facing away from the sun but only 11 of the 35 points when facing the sun. 

What is 

Have 72 Cards.  Write wins on 33 write loss on 39. Shuffle into 2 piles for sun and no sun.  Calculate new test statistic. REPEAT
