P2 or H1 : P1 - P2 ? In this example, rejection of H0 would provide strong evidence that there is a difference between men and women in their response to the tax proposal Once we have specified the null and alternative hypotheses and collected sample data, a decision concerning the null hypothesis must be made We can either reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis or fail to reject the null hypothesis When we fail to reject the null hypothesis, then either the null hypothesis is true or our test procedure was not strong enough to reject it and an error has been committed To reject the null hypothesis, a decision rule based on sample evidence needs to be developed We present specific decision rules for various problems in the remainder of this chapter 386 Chapter 10 Two Population Hypothesis Tests www.downloadslide.com 10.1 T ESTS OF THE D IFFERENCE B ETWEEN T WO N ORMAL P OPULATION M EANS : D EPENDENT S AMPLES There are a number of applications where we wish to draw conclusions about the differences between population means instead of conclusions about the absolute levels of the means For example, we might want to compare the output of two different production processes for which neither population mean is known Similarly, we might want to know if one marketing strategy results in higher sales than another without knowing the population mean sales for either These questions can be handled effectively by various different hypothesis-testing procedures As we saw in Section 8.1, several different assumptions can be made when confidence intervals are computed for the differences between two population means These assumptions generally lead to specific methods for computing the population variance for the difference between sample means There are parallel hypothesis tests that involve similar methods for obtaining the variance We organize our discussion of the various hypothesistesting procedures in parallel with the confidence interval estimates in Section 8.1 In Section 10.1 we treat situations where the two samples can be assumed to be dependent In these cases the best design, if we have control over data collection, is using two matched pairs as shown below Then in Section 10.2 we treat a variety of situations where the samples are independent Two Means, Matched Pairs Here, we assume that a random sample of n matched pairs of observations is obtained from populations with means mx and my The observations are denoted x1, y1 2, x2, y2 2, , xn, yn When we have matched pairs and the pairs are positively correlated, the variance of the difference between the sample means, d = x - y will be reduced compared to using independent samples This results because some of the characteristics of the pairs are similar, and, thus, that portion of the variability is removed from the total variability of the differences between the means For example, when we consider measures of human behavior, differences between twins will usually be less than the differences between two randomly selected people In general, the dimensions for two parts produced on the same specific machine will be closer than the dimensions for parts produced on two different, independently selected machines Thus, whenever possible, we would prefer to use matched pairs of observations when comparing measurements from two populations because the variance of the difference will be smaller With a smaller variance, there is a greater probability that we will reject H0 when the null hypothesis is not true This principle was developed in Section 9.5 in the discussion of the power of a test The specific decision rules for different forms of the hypothesis test are summarized in Equations 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 Tests of the Difference Between Population Means: Matched Pairs Suppose that we have a random sample of n matched pairs of observations from distributions with means mx and my Let d and sd denote the observed sample mean and standard deviation for the n differences xi - yi If the population distribution of the differences is a normal distribution, then the following tests have significance level a: To test either null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = or H0 : mx - my … 10.1 Tests of the Difference Between Two Normal Population Means: Dependent Samples 387 www.downloadslide.com against the alternative H1 : mx - my the decision rule is as follows: d tn - 1,a s d > 1n reject H0 if (10.1) To test either null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = or H0 : mx - my Ú against the alternative H1 : mx - my the decision rule is as follows: reject H0 if d - tn - 1,a s d > 1n (10.2) To test the null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = against the two-sided alternative H1 : mx - my ? the decision rule is as follows: reject H0 if d - tn - 1,a>2 or s d > 1n d tn - 1,a>2 s d > 1n (10.3) Here, tn - 1,a is the number for which P1 tn - tn - 1,a = a where the random variable tn - follows a Student’s t distribution with (n - 1) degrees of freedom For all these tests, p-values are interpreted as the probability of getting a value at least as extreme as the one obtained, given the null hypothesis Example 10.1 Analysis of Alternative Turkey-Feeding Programs (Hypothesis Test for Differences Between Means) Marian Anderson, production manager of Turkeys Unlimited, has been conducting a study to determine if a new feeding process produces a significant increase in mean weight of turkeys produced in the facilities of Turkeys Unlimited LLC In the process she obtains a random set of matched turkey chicks hatched from the same hen One group of chicks is from the hens fed using the old feeding method and the second group of chicks is from the same hens fed using the new method The weights for each of the turkeys and the differences between the matched pairs are shown in Table 10.1 These data are contained in the data file Turkey Feeding Perform the necessary analysis to determine if the new feeding process produces a significant a = 0.025 increase in turkey weight 388 Chapter 10 Two Population Hypothesis Tests www.downloadslide.com Table 10.1 Finish Weight of Turkeys for Old and New Feeding Programs OLD NEW

significantly greater weight compared to the old feeding process Define the weights from the new feeding process by the random variable X and the weights from the old feeding process by the random variable Y The null and alternative processes for this study are, thus, H0 : mx - my … H1 : mx - my The null hypothesis states that there was no increase in weight for the new process over the old The alternative hypothesis states that there was an increase If we reject the null hypothesis, then we can conclude that the new feeding process does result in higher turkey weights We perform the test using the Student’s t test for matched pairs with a critical value a = 0.025 Figure 10.1 provides the Minitab computation for the mean difference (1.489), the standard deviation of the mean differences (0.385), and the Student’s t The Student’s t statistic for the test can be computed as t = d 1.489 1.489 = = = 3.86 0.385 s d > 1n 1.926> 125 10.1 Tests of the Difference Between Two

this analysis we see that there is strong evidence to conclude that the new feeding method increases the weight of turkeys more than the old method Note also that the variance of the difference between the matched pairs could be computed as follows (the correlation between the pairs is 0.823) using Equation 5.27: S 2d = 0.411 22 + 0.645 22 - * 0.823 21 0.411 21 0.645 = 0.146 S d = 0.385 This

one from Great Britain The pairings were made in such a way that the two members were as similar as possible in regard to such factors as size and age The ratio of total loans outstanding to total assets was calculated for each of the banks For this ratio, the sample mean difference (German – Great Britain) was 0.0518, and the sample standard deviation of the differences was 0.3055

prices to determine if there has been an increase in selling prices over time There has been some concern that housing prices in major urban areas have not kept up with inflation over time Your study will use data collected from Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, and Oakland, which is contained in the data file House Selling Price Formulate an appropriate hypothesis test and use your statistical computer package to compute the appropriate statistics for analysis Perform the hypothesis test and indicate your conclusion Repeat the analysis using data from only the city of Atlanta 10.5 An agency offers preparation courses for a graduate school admissions test to students As part of an experiment to evaluate the merits of the course, 12 students were chosen and divided into pairs in such a way that the members of any pair had similar academic records Before taking the test, one member of each pair was assigned at random to take the preparation course, while the other member did not take a course The achievement test scores are contained in the Student Pair data file Assuming that the differences in scores follow a normal distribution, test, at the 5% level, the null hypothesis that the two population means are equal against the alternative that the true mean is higher for students taking the preparation course 10.2 T ESTS OF THE D IFFERENCE B ETWEEN T WO N ORMAL P OPULATION M EANS : I NDEPENDENT S AMPLES Two Means, Independent Samples, Known Population Variances Now we consider the case where we have independent random samples from two normally distributed populations The first population has a mean of mx and a variance of s2x and we obtain a random sample of size nx The second population has a mean of my and a variance of s2y and we obtain a random sample of size ny In Section 8.2, we showed that if the sample means are denoted by x and y, then the random variable Z = x - y - mx - my s2y s2x + A nx ny has a standard normal distribution If the two population variances are known, tests of the difference between the population means can be based on this result, using the same arguments as before Generally, we are comfortable using known population variances if the process being studied has been stable over some time and we have obtained similar variance measurements over this time And because of the central limit theorem, the results presented here hold for large sample sizes even if the populations are not normal For large sample sizes, the approximation is quite satisfactory when sample variances are used for population variances The appropriate tests are summarized in Equations 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6 Tests of the Difference Between Population Means: Independent Samples (Known Variances) Suppose that we have independent random samples of nx and ny observations from normal distributions with means mx and my and variances s2x and s2y, respectively If the observed sample means are x and y, then the following tests have significance level a: To test either null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = or H0 : mx - my … against the alternative H1 : mx - my 10.2 Tests of the Difference Between Two Normal Population Means: Independent Samples 391 www.downloadslide.com the decision rule is as follows: x - y reject H0 if s2y s2x A nx + ny za (10.4) To test either null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = or H0 : mx - my Ú against the alternative H1 : mx - my the decision rule is as follows: reject H0 if x - y s2y s2x A nx + ny - za (10.5) To test the null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = against the two-sided alternative H1 : mx - my ? the decision rule is as follows: x - y reject H0 if s2y s2x A nx + ny - z a>2 or x - y s2y s2x + A nx ny z a>2 (10.6) If the sample sizes are large (n 100), then a good approximation at significance level a can be made if we replace the population variances with the sample variances In addition, the central limit theorem leads to good approximations even if the populations are not normally distributed The p-values for all these tests are interpreted as the probability of getting a value at least as extreme as the one obtained, given the null hypothesis Example 10.2 Comparison of Alternative Fertilizers (Hypothesis Test for Differences Between Means) Shirley Brown, an agricultural economist, wants to compare cow manure and turkey dung as fertilizers Historically, farmers had used cow manure on their cornfields Recently, a major turkey farmer offered to sell composted turkey dung at a favorable price The farmers decided that they would use this new fertilizer only if there was strong evidence that productivity increased over the productivity that occurred with cow manure Shirley was asked to conduct the research and statistical analysis in order to develop a recommendation to the farmers Solution To begin the study, Shirley specified a hypothesis test with H0 : mx - my … versus the alternative that H1 : mx - my 392 Chapter 10 Two Population Hypothesis Tests www.downloadslide.com where mx is the population mean productivity using turkey dung and my is the population mean productivity using cow manure H1 indicates that turkey dung results in higher productivity The farmers will not change their fertilizer unless there is strong evidence in favor of increased productivity She decided before collecting the data that a significance level of a = 0.05 would be used for this test Using this design, Shirley implemented an experiment to test the hypothesis Cow manure was applied to one set of ny = 25 randomly selected fields The sample mean productivity was y = 100 From past experience the variance in productivity for these fields was assumed to be s2y = 400 Turkey dung was applied to a second random sample of nx = 25 fields, and the sample mean productivity was x = 115 Based on published research reports, the variance for these fields was assumed to be s2x = 625 The two sets of random samples were independent The decision rule is to reject H0 in favor of H1 if x - y s2y A nx + ny za s2x The computed statistics for this problem are as follows: nx = 25 x = 115 s2x = 625 ny = 25 y = 100 s2y = 400 115 - 100 z = = 2.34 625 400 + A 25 25 Comparing the computed value of z = 2.34 with z 0.05 = 1.645, Shirley concluded that the null hypothesis is clearly rejected In fact, we found that the p-value for this test is 0.0096 As a result, there is overwhelming evidence that turkey dung results in higher productivity than cow manure Two Means, Independent Samples, Unknown Population Variances Assumed to Be Equal In those cases where the population variances are not known and the sample sizes are under 100, we need to use the Student’s t distribution There are some theoretical problems when we use the Student’s t distribution for differences between sample means However, these problems can be solved using the procedure that follows if we can assume that the population variances are equal This assumption is realistic in many cases where we are comparing groups In Section 10.4 we present a procedure for testing the equality of variances from two normal populations The major difference is that this procedure uses a commonly pooled estimator of the equal population variance This estimator is as follows: s 2p = nx - 2s 2x + ny - 2s 2y nx + ny - 2 The degrees of freedom for s 2p and for the Student’s t statistic below is nx + ny - The hypothesis test is performed using the Student’s t statistic for the difference between two means: t = x - y - mx - my s 2p s 2p + A nx ny 10.2 Tests of the Difference Between Two Normal Population Means: Independent Samples 393 www.downloadslide.com Note that the form for the test statistic is similar to that of the Z statistic, which is used when the population variances are known The various tests using this procedure are summarized next Tests of the Difference Between Population Means: Population Variances Unknown and Equal In these tests it is assumed that we have an independent random sample of size nx and ny observations drawn from normally distributed populations with means mx and my and a common variance The sample variances s 2x and s 2y are used to compute a pooled variance estimator: s 2p = nx - 2s 2x + ny - 2s 2y nx + ny - 2 (10.7) We emphasize here that s p2 is the weighted average of the two sample variances, s x2 and s 2y Then, using the observed sample means x and y, the following tests have significance level a: To test either null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = or H0 : mx - my … against the alternative H1 : mx - my the decision rule is as follows: reject H0 if x - y s 2p s 2p A nx + ny tnx + ny - 2,a (10.8) To test either null hypothesis H0 : mx - my = or H0 : mx - my Ú against the alternative H1 : mx - my the decision rule is as follows: reject H0 if x - y s 2p s 2p A nx + ny - tnx + ny - 2,a (10.9) To test the null hypothesis H0 : mx - my against the two-sided alternative H1 : mx - my ? the decision rule is as follows: reject H0 if 394 Chapter 10 x - y s 2p s 2p + A nx ny
