In a telepathy experiment, the "sender" looks at 1 of 5 Zener cards while the "receiver" guesses the symbol. This is repeated 40 times, and the proportion of correct responses is recorded. Because there are 5 cards, we expect random guesses to be right 20% of the time (1 out of 5) in the long run. So in 40 tries, 8 correct guesses, a proportion of 0.20, is common. But of course there will be variability even when someone is just guessing. Thirteen or more correct in 40 tries, a proportion of 0.325, is statistically significant at the 5% level. When people perform this well on the telepathy test, we conclude their performance is not due to chance and take it as an indication of the ability to read minds.
In a large experiment with 500 people, how many people do we expect to be identified as telepathic even if everyone is just guessing?
a. it is impossible to estimate this
b. 100
c. 25
d. 5

Ascientist studied a population of workers to determine whether verbal praise and/or tangible rewards affect employee productivity. in the study, some workers were offered verbal praise, some were offered tangible rewards (gift cards, presents, and some were offered neither. the productivity of each participant was measured throughout the study by recording the number of daily tasks completed by each employee. which inference might the scientists make based on the given information? a.) the number of daily tasks completed by each employee may influence the dependent variable, which is whether the employee receives verbal praise, tangible rewards, or neither. b.) verbal praise and/or tangible rewards may influence the independent variable, which is the number of daily tasks completed by each employee. c.) verbal praise and/or tangible rewards may influence the dependent variable, which is the number of daily tasks completed by each employee. d.) the dependent variables, which are verbal praise and tangible rewards, may influence the number of daily tasks completed by each employee.
