Transcribed Image Text:Suppose the self-reports are completely accurate and are
representative of the number of eighth-grade students who
smoke in the general community. We are considering using
an SCN level 2 100 µg/mL as a test criterion for identifying
cigarette smokers. Regard a student as positive if he or she
smokes one or more cigarettes per week.
*3.68 What is the sensitivity of the test for light-smoking
students (students who smoke ≤ 14 cigarettes per week)?
*3.69 What is the sensitivity of the test for moderate-smoking
students (students who smoke 15-44 cigarettes per week)?
*3.70 What is the sensitivity of the test for heavy-smoking
students (students who smoke ≥ 45 cigarettes per week)?
*3.71 What is the specificity of the test?
*3.72 What is the PV of the test?
*3.73 What is the PV- of the test?
