An NHL executive says that players who incur penalty time during a game have a median time of 1.2 minutes in the penalty box. A random sample of 28 hockey players with penalty time produced 24 non-zero differences when a Wilcoxon signed rank test was used. The W (R+) equaled 156.5 . The alternate hypothesis is m  1.2 minutes. Assume the population is symmetrically distributed. The computed test statistic in this instance equals:
 a. 156.5.
  b. 0.186.
  c. 6.5.
  d. 35.
  e. 143.5.

Question 2

The Wilcoxon signed rank test assumes sample data to be
 a. continuous with either nominal or ordinal measurement scale.
  b. continuous with either interval or ratio measurement scale.
  c. discrete with either nominal or ordinal measurement scale.
  d. discrete with either interval or ratio measurement scale.
  e. continuous with any measurement scale.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
