Q6 (no data file needed for this question) Researchers are interested in examining participants’ life satisfaction as a result of time spent practicing mindfulness (a type of meditation). They would like to use a simple regression equation based on data collected in a published study to predict a participant’s level of life satisfaction (measured on a 1-60 scale) depending on the number of hours they engage in mindfulness per week.   Given the calculated values of life satisfaction of Participant A who engaged in mindfulness for 2 hours per week, and Participant B who engaged in 10 hours of mindfulness per week, what conclusion can the researchers come to about the expected levels of life satisfaction these individuals are expected to report? Who will have higher life satisfaction? Write 2-3 sentences to explain (this does not need to be in APA format). (4 pts)

Q4 (no data file needed for this question) Researchers are interested in examining participants’ life satisfaction as a result of time spent practicing mindfulness (a type of meditation). They would like to use a simple regression equation based on data collected in a published study to predict a participant’s level of life satisfaction (measured on a 1-60 scale) depending on the number of hours they engage in mindfulness per week.   Use the equation y = 45.38 +.30x to calculate the predicted amount of life satisfaction for Participant A who reported that they practice mindfulness for 2 hours per week. Round to 2 decimal places. (3 pts)
