Ten years ago, only 15% of the U.S. population consisted of people more than 65 years old. A researcher plans to use a sample of n = 300 people to determine whether the population distribution has changed during the past ten years. If a chi-square test is used to evaluate the data, what is the expected frequency for the older-than-65 category?
What is fe = 45?

A psychologist uses a Two-Way ANOVA to examine the effects of sugar and caffeine consumption on the activity level of adolescents. After recording the activity level for each child, the psychologist determines that the value of η2 for the interaction is .345. What does this tell us about how sugar AND caffeine consumption affects activity levels?
What is 34.5% of the variance in activity level can be explained by the interaction between sugar & caffeine consumption?

A researcher is examining the relationship between color preferences and gender. A sample of 40 men and 60 women is obtained and each person is asked to identify his/her preference between two choices of paint colors for a new student lounge: lime green or electric orange. For this sample, 15 of the men preferred lime green, and 35 of the women preferred also preferred lime green. If a chi-square test is used to evaluate the relationship, what is the expected frequency for men preferring color A?

A two-way ANOVA has a significant interaction of Gender and Marital Status on measures of Happiness. Married women M= 8, Married men M= 15, Single women=13, Single men = 6. Draw the graph using the following information, and use this to help you explain the interaction in words.
Women tend to be happier when they are single rather than married. Men tend to be happier when they are married rather than single.
