For the differences, d, between their ranks for these 10 films, ∑ d 2 = 84 (a) Calculate Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient between Abena’s ranks and Meghan’s ranks. (1) A test is carried out at the 5% level of significance to see if there is agreement between their ranks for the films. The hypotheses for the test are H 0 : ρS = 0 H1 : ρS > 0 (b) (i) Find the critical region for the test. (ii) State the conclusion of the test. (2) An 11th film is added to the list. Abena and Meghan both agree that this film is their least favourite. A new test is carried out at the 5% level of significance using the same hypotheses. (c) Determine the conclusion of this test. You should state the test statistic and the critical value used. (4 [Show More]
