A group of researchers was interested in the effect of music on the behavior of dogs. Specifcally, they wanted to measure the effect of classical music on sleepiness as an indication of dogs' mental relaxation. They conducted
the following study on a group of 400 Jack Russell Terriers.
Every day for 4 months, the researchers would play Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata for 1 hour occurring
randomly between 9 a. m. and 12 p. m. During the entire 3 hours observers would record the times in which
each dog was sleeping. By the end of the 4 months, the researchers calculated and compared the percentage of
time each dog spent sleeping during each of two conditions: while the music was playing and while it wasn't
Is the study appropriate for the statistical questions it's supposed to answer?
