Suppose a college offers weekly one-on-one tutoring sessions for students who sign up for it. In an economics course, approximately half the students sign up for the free tutoring. In general, students who are harder working are more likely to sign up for the tutoring and they study more. As a result, the average student who signed up for tutoring studies economics for 20 hours per week, while the average student who does not, studies for 10 hours per week. Figure ?? represents the relationship between hard-workingness, studying, tutoring and test scores, and Equation ?? shows the relationship between studying, tutoring and test scores. (a) The college decides to evaluate the impact of the tutoring program on test scores (81) by comparing the average test score for people who used the tutoring services and those who did not. Do you expect that this will produce an unbiased estimate of the impact of tutoring on test scores? If not, how much do you expect the estimate to be off by? (b) One year the tutoring center is understaffed. They are only able to offer the tutoring services to 30 of the students of the 60 who sign up. They randomly choose 30 of them to receive the tutoring they requested and deny it to the remaining 30. How could you use this unfortunate situation to construct an unbiased estimate of β? Explain what it is about this situation that allows you to estimate the impact of tutoring differently from in part (a) Test Score 50B Tutoring 2 x Hours Studying/week Figure 1: Relationship of Hard-work, Tutoring, and Test Score Tutoring Hard-workingrness 31 Impact of Tutoring on E Score] Impact of 1 hour of Study on E Score]

Alarge university wanted to study the relationship between completing an internship during college and students' future earning potential. prom the same graduating class, they selected a random sample of 80 students who completed an internship and 100 students who did not complete an internship and examined their salaries five years after graduation. they found that there was a statistically higher mean salary for the internship group than for the noninternship group. which of the following interpretations is the most appropriate? a. there could be a confounding variable, such as student major, that explains the difference in mean salary between the internship and no internship groups. b. we cannot infer anything from these data since the distribution of salaries is likely right skewed. c. you cannot draw any valid conclusions because the sample sizes are different. d. more students should complete internships because having an internship produces a higher salary.
