People tend to evaluate the quality of their lives relative to others around them (Frieswijk et al., 2004). In one study, researchers conducted interviews with n = 9 frail elderly people. During the interview, each person was compared with a fictitious person who was worse off than the elderly person. The scores below are the measures from a life-satisfaction scale for the elderly sample. Assume that the average score on this scale in the population is u = 20. Are the data sufficient to conclude that the elderly people in this sample are either significantly more or less satisfied than others in the general population? The life-satisfaction scores for the sample are 18, 23, 24, 22, 19, 27, 23, 26, 25. a. Which kind of t-test should you use? b. How many tails should the test have? Circle a word or phrase in the problem that told you this. c. State the null and alternative hypotheses in statistical notation: d. Determine the critical t using an alpha = .05. Sketch the null distribution, note the location of the critical t, and shade the critical region. e. Calculate the t-statistic and plot it on the sketch you drew above. f. Make a decision (either reject the null or fail to reject it)
