27. No Variation in a Sample An experiment was conducted to test the effects of alcohol. Re searchers measured the breath alcohol levels for a treatment group of people who drank ethano and another group given a placebo. The results are given below (based on data from “Effects o Alcohol Intoxication on Risk Taking, Strategy, and Error Rate in Visuomotor Performance," by Streufert et al., Journal of Applied Psychology, Vol. 77, No. 4). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the two sample groups come from populations with the same mean. Treatment Group: n = 22, x = 0.049, sj = 0.015 %3D Placebo Group: n2 = 22, x2 0.000, s2 = 0.000

The authors of the paper "Statistical Methods for Assessing Agreement Between Two Methods of Clinical Measurement"† compared two different instruments for measuring a person's ability to breathe out air. (This measurement is helpful in diagnosing various lung disorders.) The two instruments considered were a Wright peak flow meter and a mini-Wright peak flow meter. Seventeen people participated in the study, and for each person air flow was measured once using the Wright meter and once using the mini-Wright meter.

There are dozens of personality tests available on the internet. One test, scored on a scale of 0 to 200, is designed to give an indication of how "personable" the test taker is, with higher scores indicating more "personability." Suppose that scores on this test have a mean of 97 and a standard deviation of 20. Complete the following statements about the distribution of scores on this personality test. (a) According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least (Choose one) of the scores lie between 57 and 137. (b) According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least 36% of the scores lie between and. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) X
Women Values for the labor force participation rate ofwomen (LFPR) are published by the U.S. Bureau ofLabor Statistics. We are interested in whether there wasa difference between female participation in 1968 and1972, a time of rapid change for women. We check LFPRvalues for 19 randomly selected cities for 1968 and 1972.Shown below is software output for two possible tests:Paired t-Test of m11 - 22Test Ho: m11972@19682 = 0 vs Ha: m11972 - 19682 ≠ 0Mean of Paired Differences = 0.0337t-Statistic = 2.458 w>18 df p = 0.02442-Sample t-Test of m1 - m2Ho: m1 - m2 = 0 vs Ha: m1 - m2 ≠ 0Test Ho: m119722 - m119682 = 0 vsHa: m119722 - m119682 ≠ 0Difference Between Means = 0.0337t-Statistic = 1.496 w>35 df p = 0.1434a) Which of these tests is appropriate for these data?Explain.b) Using the test you selected, state your conclusion.

Magnet Treatment of Pain Researchers conducted a study to determine whether magnets are effective in treating back pain, with results given below (based on data from “Bipolar Permanent Magnets for the Treatment of Chronic Lower Back Pain: A Pilot Study,” by Collacott, Zimmerman, White, and Rindone, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 283, No. 10). The values represent measurements of pain using the visual analog scale. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that those given a sham treatment (similar to a placebo) have pain reductions that vary more than the pain reductions for those treated with magnets.
NCI Cancer Bulletin, December 2, 2008 Volume 5 / Number 24 Title of the article: After Menopause, Weight Affects Breast Cancer Rates More than Mammography Use Women who are overweight or obese after menopause face an increased risk of breast cancer, but a large prospective cohort study indicates that the frequency of mammography use and screening accuracy are not the primary explanations for higher rates of breast cancer in these women. The same is true of large, invasive breast cancer tumors and advanced stage disease; risk increases with weight, but higher rates are not explained by the frequency or accuracy of screening mammography before breast cancer was diagnosed. The study appears in the December 3 Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Dr. Karla Kerlikowske of the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Medical Center and colleagues gathered data on 287,115 postmenopausal women who were registered in the Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium database. Reflecting a trend in the…
Cardiac Arrest at Day and Night. A study investigated survival rates for in-hospital patients who suffered cardiac arrest. Among 58,593 patients who had cardíac arrest during the day, 11.604 survived and were discharged. Among 28,155 patients who suffered cardiac arrest at night, 4139 survived and were discharged (based on data from "Survival from In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest During Nights and Weekends" by Peberdy et al., Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 299. No. 7). We want to use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the survival rates are the same for day and night. In this example, use a confidence interval rather than a hypothesis test to help draw conclusions.

A researcher wants to examine the effect of daily mental exercises on cognitive performance of people in early stages of Alzheimer's disease. She enrolled to her study n = 16 patients diagnosed with the early stage of Alzheimer's disease and all participants conducted daily mental exercises for a month. At the end of the program all enrolled patients took the MMSE test (i.e., Mini-Mental State Examination). The results show that the sample mean on the MMSE test was M = 23.6 with the standard deviation, s = 7. It is known that the MMSE mean in the population of patients with early Alzheimer's disease is µ = 20. Do these data show a significant effect of daily mental exercises on cognitive performance in early stages of Alzheimer's disease?
