Exploring the Stroop Effect by using numbers Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to study automatic processes by replicating the previously carried out Stroop effect by using numbers. This experiment was conducted by recruiting 8 participants (4 males and 4 females)‚ who are working in a head-office of Save the Children Organization in Yangon‚ selected by an opportunistic sample. Participants were presented with a Stroop-experiment-task sheet which consists of two parts which was the congruent

STA9708 Regression Analysis: Literacy rates and Poverty rates As we are aware‚ poverty rate serve as an indicator for a number of causes in the world. Poverty rates are linked with infant mortality‚ education‚ child labor and crime etc. In this project‚ I will apply the regression analysis learned in the Statistics course to study the relationship between literacy rates and poverty rates among different states in USA. In my study‚ the poverty rates will be the independent variable (x) and literacy

William turns the oven to 167 degrees. The temperature in the oven increases from 70 degrees to 167 degrees over the following 10 minutes at a constant rate‚ so that the temperature follows a uniform distribution over the interval between 70 degrees and 167 degrees. At a randomly chosen time during that

definition of the kth origin moment‚ we have: k = (1) Whether X is discrete or continuous‚ 1 = E(X) = ‚ i.e.‚ the 1st origin moment is simply the population mean (i.e.‚ 1 measures central tendency). (2) Since the population variance‚ 2‚ is the weighted average of deviations from the mean squared over all elements of Rx‚ then 2 = E[(X )2] = 2. Therefore‚ the 2nd central moment‚ 2 = 2‚ is a measure of dispersion (or variation‚ or spread) of the population. Further‚ the

The first thing that is necessary to do in this situation is to look into the historic performance of the stocks verse the rest of the market. This is done by calculating the variance of all the stocks‚ and the covariance of the stock to the rest
