correlation
Recall the researcher who investigated the relationship between hours of sleep and reaction times in the Week 4 Application. As a follow up to that study, the researcher wants to conduct a correlation to investigate further if there is a relationship between hours of sleep and reaction time. For this experiment, participants are allowed to sleep as much as they would like (that is, they are not assigned to sleep any specific number of hours). When 20 participants come to their appointment time, they report to the researcher how many hours of sleep they had the previous night. The researcher then tests their reaction times. You can find the data for this Assignment in the Weekly Data Set forum found in the Discussions area of the course navigation menu.
To complete this Assignment, submit your answers to the following. Use SPSS to determine if amount of sleep is related to reaction time.
Before computing the correlation, state the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis in words (not formulas).
Based on the hypotheses you stated, explain whether the researcher should conduct a one-tailed or two-tailed test.
