Lab 5: Sleepless Nights?

Background: In class you were asked to report how much sleep you got the night before. From these data we would like to determine the following:

  • Do students at your school appear to be getting less than 8 hours of sleep at night?
  • On average, how much sleep do students at your school get on a typical night?
  • Do students appear to get the same amount of sleep on average compared to college students in general?

Goals for this lab: To analyze a quantitative response variable using numerical and graphical summaries and using one-sample t-procedures to make inferences about a population mean, considering several possible population shapes.
