    In relation to the first question, the results showed that subjects in the control group rated their experience somewhat negatively. Subjects in the one dollar category rated their experience statistically more positively in comparison to the control group while the twenty dollar category’s average rating was only minimally higher than that of the control group. Participants in the one dollar group also responded more positively when asked about their willingness to participate it similar…

    Eq.\ref{Bi} is a projection of the attribute vector $I_i$ in the eigenspace spanned by the first $k_c$ eigenbackgrounds, being $\textbf{b}$ the coefficient vector of the combination. In the standard EIG method the number of eigenbackgrounds retained $k_c$ is chosen by fixing a threshold for the last eigenvalue $\lambda_{k_c}$ retained. The background obtained $B_i$ are then subtracted to the original image and a moving object is identified as the regions of the images in which $I_i-B_i$ is…

    model. Instead, “belavg” displays a negative relationship with the hourly wage, which indicates that it is less physically attractive individuals that are experiencing a monetary disadvantage as a result of their appearance. Two other variables of statistical significance are “exper”, indicating a positive relationship between the amount of experience an individual has and his or her hourly wage, and “educ”, which too indicates a positive relationship, but between the amount of education an…

    Introduction Prosopagnosia is a cognitive disorder in which facial recognition is impaired, while other aspects of visual processing remains intact (Gruter 2008). This disorder implies that the brain processes visual stimuli differently. Using the Memory Interference Test (MIT) aggregated database, students can formulate hypotheses based on demographics by studying the number of correct responses and mean reaction time by observing pre-calculated students t-test. This particular assessment…

    in metaphorical language use of the experimental group and the control group at the beginning of the metaphor awareness treatment, an independent samples t-test was conducted for the data gathered from the participants’ recent writing test. The statistical analysis indicated that there was not a significant difference in the metaphorical language use of experiment group (M = 1.59; SD = .70) and control (M = 1.44; SD = 1.00); t (43) = .58, p = .56. Levene’s test for equality of variances was…

    No one will argue that determining the number of significant figures and keeping with the rules of those “sigfigs” throughout an already strenuous calculation can be a pain. Countless points and half-points have been deducted from tests throughout chemistry’s ages from students claiming that significant figures are, ironically, insignificant. But, let’s consider the following scenario. Joey is in his inorganic chemistry lab. The second step to the lab tells him to measure out the mass of Iron he…

    Question 1 Cowles and Davis (2016) discussed several factors that contributed to the adoption of the .05 level of statistical significance. The first factor discussed was the discovery that computations can be utilized to measure observational error, by and astronomer, Lambert Adolphe Quetelet. This discovery led to the development of the normal distribution curve utilized today (Cowles & Davis, 2016). Following the development of the normal distribution curve, a measure of variability known…

    to grow in all countries with the only difference in period when the impact reaches its peak. However, not all impulse response functions are statistically significant. In this paper statistical significance is tested by analysing confidence intervals. It has become standard in relevant papers to evaluate statistical significance using upper and lower limits of impulse response functions. “An easy way of assessing whether any of these responses is significantly different from zero is to search…
