Many manufacturers of light bulbs advertise their 75 watt bulbs as having a life of 750 hours Suppose two electrically minded students wired up 12 bulbs so that elapsed time was recorded when the bulbs failed. The following statistics were obtained. Perform a t test, calculate the effect size index, and write a conclusion about the manufacturers' claim. X = 8820 X2 = 6,487,100 N = 12

Correct Answer:
hours
The mean number of hours that the 75 watt bulbs burned (735) was significantly less than the advertised claim of 750 hours, p < .05.
The effect size index, 0.75, indicates that burning 735 hours instead of 750 is a statistically large effect (almost).
A medium effect size index value is 0.50.

Howell and Nurcombe (1984) examined 6 month-old infants who were low birthweight babies when they were born. Each child was rated on the Bayley Psychomotor Development Index. The population mean for this test is 100 and high scores mean better performance. Perform a t test, calculate the effect size index, and write a conclusion about what to expect (on the average) of low birthweight babies.102 , 96 , 110 , 99 , 112 , 103 , 99 , 109 , 107 , 104
