A pet store is selling a new drug that claims to prevent dogs
from having the urge to mark their territory, thus making it less
likely for dogs to urinate inside the house. To test the predicted
decreased urge to mark territory, the new drug researcher gathered
8 dog volunteers and provided them with the new drug treatment. At
the end of the three-week period where the dogs received treatment,
each dog owner counted the number of times their dog urinated in
the house. In the general dog population, the mean number of times
dogs urinate in the house during a 3-week period is = 5. With
higher scores indicating the dogs urinated in the house more often.
The scores for the 8 dog volunteers are: 12, 4, 3, 0, 2, 0, 2,
1. With α = .01, summarize the results of the hypothesis
testing procedure by putting your results in journal form.
Ignore the minus sign if your
calculated z or t is
negative.
t (7) = 1.45, p > .01
t (7) = 2.25, p < .01
t (15) = 3.99, p < .01
t (8) = 1.45, p > .01
z = 1.45, p < .01
r = .81, p < .01
