In this test, the alternative hypotheses are constructed in three different ways. The hypotheses are shown as follows.
H0 :The distribution of differences is symmetrical around MD = 0
H1a :The differences tend to be larger than MD = 0
H1b :The differences tend to be smaller than MD = 0
H1c :The differences tend to be larger than MD = 0 or smaller than MD = 0
Which test do the hypotheses given above belong to?
The Chi-square Goodness of Fit Test |
The Sign Test |
The Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test |
The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test |
Kruskal-Wallis Test |
The Wilcoxon signed rank test, involves the usage of the sign and the magnitude of the rank of the differences between pairs of measurements, and it is a non-parametric alternative to the paired t test when the population distribution of the differences is not normally distributed. In this problem, the results are tied to each other, for example there is an effect, and outcomes of a variable are collected before the effect and after the effect on some observations. For example, a group of patients’ blood pressure can be measured before and after a medicine is taken. Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test does not require the normality assumption that we usually see on a parametric test. Steps of the Method In this test, the alternative hypotheses are constructed in three different ways. The hypotheses are shown as follows. H0 :The distribution of differences is symmetrical around MD = 0 H1a :The differences tend to be larger than MD = 0 H1b :The differences tend to be smaller than MD = 0 H1c :The differences tend to be larger than MD = 0 or smaller than MD = 0. The correct answer is D.

Answer the questions 7-8 according to following information.
A company has 5 different alternative actions denoted by A1, A2,..A5 under 3 possible states of nature, which are denoted by S1, S2 and S3. The pay off matrix for each action and state of nature is given as:
What will be the best action under maximax criterion?
A1 |
A2 |
A3 |
A4 |
A5 |
maxA1=max(7,10,8)=10
maxA2=max(9,7,12)=12
maxA3=max(14,13,11)=14*
maxA4=max(9,8,6)=9
maxA5=max(7,4,5)=7
Thus A3 gives the maximum of maximum possible payoffs.

If we know the proportion P for one class, the proportion of Q for the other class must be equal to which of the following below?
1-P |
1-Q |
Q-P |
1+P |
1+Q |
You may have noticed that the outcomes of some variables are restricted to two outcomes such as male-female, clean-dirty, and broken-not broken etc. If you carefully study the environment we live in, you may see that sometimes populations consist of only two categories/classes or two subpopulations. For example, as we said before, such classes are male and female, dead and alive, married and not married. The population proportions of two categories/classes are denoted by, in general, P and Q. If we know the proportion P for one class, the proportion of Q for the other class must be equal to 1 – P. Because the total probability must be equal to 1 and there are only two possible outcomes. The correct answer is A.
11.Soru
What kind of distribution is used when a probability of obtaining an outcome, out of two outcomes, on one trial is known and a probability of the number of times the same outcome might appear, say x times out of n independent trials is tried to be found?
The Binominal Distribution |
The Sign Test |
The Chisquare Goodness of Fit Test |
Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test |
Kruskal-Wallis Test |
There is a specific distribution called binomial distribution. The Binomial distribution is used when a probability of obtaining an outcome, out of two outcomes, on one trial is known and a probability of the number of times the same outcome might appear, say x times out of n independent trials is tried to be found. Mainly the binomial distribution is the sampling distribution of the proportions estimated from sample data. The binomial test tells us whether it is reasonable to conclude that the proportions we obtain from our sample could have been drawn from a population with a particular value of P. The correct answer is A.

In general, __________________ looks at the relationship between variables and examines the degree of the relationship if there is any?
In general, __________________ looks at the relationship between variables and examines the degree of the relationship if there is any?
ANOVA |
the correlation analysis |
Hypothesis testing |
Mean |
Mode |
In general, the correlation analysis looks at the relationship between variables and examines the degree of the relationship if there is any. If you remember from the previous chapters, in order to understand the relationship between the variables, the simplest thing we might do is to create a graph of the data, specifically a scatterplot of the variables.

In a sign test the median is 12 and here are the observations in the sample: 5, 6, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 24. What is the n+ value for the sign test?
2 |
4 |
6 |

It is the number of positive signs for (x-Median) differences therefore the answer is 6.

A lecturer wants to learn if there is a relationship between the amount of time (in minutes) a student studies for an exam and the student’s mark of the exam. He finds the Pearson’s correlation coefficient between the amount of time spent for exam and the student’s mark of the exam as 0.905.
Which of the following can be inferred from the data above?
There is no relationship between the variables. |
There is no linear relationship between the variables. |
The relationship between the variables is very weak. |
The relationship between the variables is very strong. |
The relationship between the variables is negative. |
The Pearson’s correlation coefficient between the amount of time spent for exam and the student’s mark of the exam is 0.905. It is a positive linear relationship and it's very close to 1. Therefore, we can say there is strong positive relationship between the two variables. The correct answer is D.

The number of thefts occurring in each season (winter, spring, summer, fall) in a province for the last year is given below:
Winter: 15
Spring: 25
Summer: 80
Fall: 70
What is the expected probability according to uniform distribution?
1 |
0.25 |
25 |
0.50 |
50 |
In this problem, the classes can be written as winter, spring, summer, and fall. The expected frequencies can be calculated using Uniform distribution. Remember that when the data follows uniform distribution, all the outcome will equally likely. Therefore, all the outcomes on this problem, based on uniform distribution, have a probability of 0.25 since there are four seasons. The expected frequencies can be calculated by multiplying the sample size n with expected probabilities. Hence, the probability for each class is 200 x 0.25 = 50. The correct answer is E.

The payoff values for decision alternatives : there are 5 states of nature and the profit values for the first decision alternative are 66, 27, 104, 91, 87. The decision maker is pessimistic. Which payoff value is taken from the first decision alternative?
104 |
91 |
87 |
66 |
27 |
x = min = 27. If the payoff table is based on profits, first for each decision alternative, the minimum payoff value of each decision alternative is listed then among these payoff values the decision alternative producing the maximum is chosen as the best decision alternative. pg. 190. Correct answer is E.
20.Soru
Which test is used to decide whether k independent samples are drawn from different populations?
The Sign Test |
Kruskal-Wallis Test |
The Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test |
The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test |
Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient |
The one-way analysis of variance has some assumptions such as independent samples, normality, and equal variances. When the conditions of normality and equal variances are not valid, Kruskal-Wallis is a non-parametric alternative test that involves less conditions. The Kruskal-Wallis test is used to decide whether k independent samples are drawn from different populations. It is an extension of the Wilcoxon sum rank test to a comparison of more than two populations. The Kruskal-Wallis test assumes that the variable under consideration is measured on at least ordinal scale. The correct answer is B.
