Question
Many urban legends involve human behavior when the moon is full. Research has suggested that sleep is associated with the lunar cycle. In one experiment, researchers wanted to find out if more than half of all people have trouble sleeping during a full moon. The hypotheses tested were H0: p = 0.50 versus Ha: p > 0.50. The p-value from the hypothesis test was 0.0017. This means that
a.If the proportion of all people have trouble sleeping during a full moon is more than 0.50, we would see results as large or larger than those observed about 0.17% of the time.
b.If the proportion of all people have trouble sleeping during a full moon is 0.50, we would see results as large or larger than those observed about 0.17% of the time.
c.The probability that half of all people have trouble sleeping during a full moon is 0.0017.
d.The probability that more than half of all people have trouble sleeping during a full moon is 0.0017.
Explanation / Answer
Option d) is correct.
d) probability that more than half of all people have trouble
sleeping during a full moon is 0.0017
