CHAPTER 1LEARNING OBJECTIVES r r r




CLO1-1: Use the chance model to determine whether an observed statistic is unlikely to occur.
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




CLO1-2: Calculate and interpret a p-value, and state the strength of evidence it provides againstthe null
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




hypothesis. r




CLO1-3: Calculate a standardized statistic for a single proportion and evaluate the strength ofevidence it
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




provides against a null hypothesis.
r r r r r




CLO1-4: Describe how the distance of the observed statistic from the parameter value specifiedby the null
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




hypothesis, sample size, and one- vs. two-sided tests affect the strength of evidence against the null
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




hypothesis. r




CLO1-5: Describe how to carry out a theory-based, one-proportion z-test.
r r r r r r r r r




Section 1.1: Introduction to Chance Models r r r r r




LO1.1-1: Recognize the difference between parameters and statistics.
r r r r r r r




LO1.1-2: Describe how to use coin tossing to simulate outcomes from a chance model of the ran-dom choice
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




between two events.
r r r




LO1.1-3: Use the One Proportion applet to carry out the coin tossing simulation.
r r r r r r r r r r r r




LO1.1-4: Identify whether or not study results are statistically significant and whether or not thechance
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




model is a plausible explanation for the data.
r r r r r r r r




LO1.1-5: Implement the 3S strategy: find a statistic, simulate results from a chance model, andcomment on
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




strength of evidence against observed study results happening by chance alone.
r r r r r r r r r r r




LO1.1-6: Differentiate between saying the chance model is plausible and the chance model is the correct
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




explanation for the observed data.

Questions 1 through 4:
r r r




Do red uniform wearers tend to win more often than those wearing blue uniforms in Taekwondo
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




matches where competitors are randomly assigned to wear either a red or blue uniform? In a
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




sample of 80 Taekwondo matches, there were 45 matches where thered uniform wearer won.
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




1. What is the parameter of interest for this study?
r r r r r r r r




A. The long-run proportion of Taekwondo matches in which the red uniform wearerwins
r r r r r r r r r r r r




B. The proportion of matches in which the red uniform wearer wins in a sample of
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




80Taekwondo matches r r r




C. Whether the red uniform wearer wins a match r r r r r r r




D. 0.50 r




Ans: A; LO: 1.1-1; Difficulty: Easy; Type: MC

2. What is the statistic for this study?
r r r r r r




A. The long-run proportion of Taekwondo matches in which the red uniform wearerwins
r r r r r r r r r r r r




B. The proportion of matches in which the red uniform wearer wins in a sample of
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




80Taekwondo matches r r r




C. Whether the red uniform wearer wins a match r r r r r r r




D. 0.50 r




Ans: B; LO: 1.1-1; Difficulty: Easy; Type: MC
r r r r r r r




3. Given below is the simulated distribution of the number of ―red wins‖ that could happen by chance
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




alone in a sample of 80 matches. Based on this simulation, is our observed result statistically
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




significant?
r




A. Yes, since 45 is larger than 40. r r r r r r




B. Yes, since the height of the dotplot above 45 is smaller than the height of thedotplot
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




above 40. r r




C. No, since 45 is a fairly typical outcome if the color of the winner‘s uniform
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r




wasdetermined by chance alone.
