The reaction time of these subjects was tested by having them grab a meter stick after it was released by the tester. The number of centimeters that the meter stick dropped before being caught is a direct measure of the person’s response time.

• Plot these data on the attached sheet. Use the vertical segments as if they are number lines; place a dot on a segment to show the reaction times for people of various ages.
• The values under "age" are in years. The values under "Reaction Time" are in centimeters.

Questions:

1. Must you use the same minimum and maximum values for all segments on which you plot data?
2. Are there any ways this data might be pre-processed that would make it easier to complete this task?
3. Do you see any patterns in this data?
4. Can this data be considered a sample? If so, from what population? What questions would you ask about this data when you think of it as a sample that you wouldn't ask otherwise?
