- 1. Instructions: Complete the following cxercises that have been adapted from 10.1 and 10.2 in Refigaring Anthropology. For both hypothesis testing problems. write out all 5 stges for bypothesis testing, In your conclusions (Step 5), list the t-value with the df, significance etc, use the Student's table to answer 3.7. Attach additional pages as necescary. 1. Five skulls were excavated from a large Pleistocene cave in mainland China: The average H, erectas cranial capacity is generally estimated to be about 1000cc. Based upont cranial capacity alone, could the skulls be from H. enectus specimens? List all 5 steps for hypothesis testing, in your conclusions (Step 5). list the t-value with the df, significance etc. Use a-0.01 2. A group of ten male skeletons has just arrived at a large eastern muscum. Unfortunately, they have been improperly catalogeed, and their place of origin is uncertain. Based upon the inadequate reconds available with the collection, the museum staff has guessed that these are Native American skeletons. The biological anthropologist in charge computes that the average statare of the ten specimens is 161.3cm with s=10cm. Judging strictly from stature, what is the minimum alpha needed to reject the hypothesis that these specimens are equal to the Native American population with an average of 163.7cm ?
