ANSWERS
1. t-Test (one-sample t-test)
EXPLAIN: To compare the given sample mean of 105 with the expected population mean.
2. Chi-Square Test of Independence
EXPLAIN: To assess if there's a significant difference between students and teachers in terms of
their opinions toward charter change.
3. Paired Samples t-Test or Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test
EXPLAIN: To determine if there's a significant influence of the symposium on students'
preferences.
4. Independent Samples t-Test or Mann-Whitney U Test
EXPLAIN: To evaluate if there's a significant difference between the two groups of children in
terms of achievements in science.
5. Paired Samples t-Test or Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test
EXPLAIN: To assess if there's a significant change in self-concept among 30 high school
graduating students after passing an important test.
6. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
EXPLAIN: To determine if the three groups of teachers significantly differ in terms of teaching
performance.
7. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
EXPLAIN: To investigate if the method of teaching interacts with students' learning styles.
8. Chi-Square Test of Independence
EXPLAIN: To check if there's a significant difference between the observed and expected
distributions of parents' responses.
9. Chi-Square Test of Independence
EXPLAIN: To examine if there's a significant relationship between sex and drink preference.
10. Pearson's Correlation Coefficient or Spearman's Rank Correlation
EXPLAIN: To determine if there's a correlation between employee's rank and efficiency rating.
