A study is conducted to estimate the association between exposure to lead paint in childhood and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Data on n = 400 children are collected, and data on exposure and ADHD diagnosis are shown in Table 9–26. Estimate the crude or unadjusted relative risk. Estimate the crude or unadjusted odds ratio.
Household incomes in a certain region are skewed right with mean $57,550 and standard deviation $16,200. The probability that the mean of a random sample of 4400 household incomes would differ from the population mean by $500 or more is about__?
Calculate an odds ratio A group of teens ages 13-17 with anxiety were chosen as cases in a case-control study. A second group of teens ages 13-17 without anxiety were chosen as controls for the same study. The researchers were investigating if attention deficient and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a potential risk factor (exposure) for anxiety (outcome). The medical histories of cases and controls were examined to determine if participants had been diagnosed with ADHD between ages 8 and 10. Among cases (teens with anxiety), 77 had been diagnosed with ADHD between ages 8 and 10 and 34 had not been diagnosed with ADHD between ages 8 and 10. Among controls (teens without anxiety), 18 had been diagnosed with ADHD between ages 8 and 10 and 124 had not been diagnosed with ADHD between ages 8 and 10. Calculate the odds ratio to measure the association between being ADHD and anxiety in teens. Express your answer to the nearest tenth or 1 place past the decimal (example: 15.4).
Teenagers who do not sleep well or long enough may have a higher risk of raised blood pressure, which could lead to cardiovascular disease later in life. The odds of raised blood pressure increase 3.5 times for those who have trouble falling asleep at night or who wake up too early and 2.5 times for those with sleeping periods of fewer than 6.5 hours. A health psychologist is interested in studying teenagers who have diastolic blood pressure scores in the top 20%. Diastolic blood pressure scores for teenagers follow a normal distribution with μ = 72 and σ = 10. Use the Distributions tool to help answer the questions that follow. The minimum z-score necessary to be in the top 20% of the diastolic blood pressure distribution is z =0.842 . Use this z-score to determine X, the corresponding diastolic blood pressure score. X = 80.42 This score, X, is the 80th percentile of diastolic blood pressure scores among teenagers. The percentile rank of this score is 80%…
The weekly earnings of shift supervisors in the glass industry follow a normal probability distribution with a mean of $1,000 and a standard deviation of $100. What is the z value of income X of a supervisor who earns $1,100 per week? What about a supervisor who makes $900 a week?
Dementia is the loss of the intellectual and social abilities severe enough to interfere with judgment, behavior, and daily functioning. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia. Researchers explored the experience and struggles of people diagnosed with dementia and their families. Research has shown that the mean age at diagnosis of all people with early-onset dementia is 55 years, and the population standard deviation is 6.8 years.yt What is the probability a single person will be diagnosed with early-onset dementia is less than 50 years? Do we know if the sample mean of samples of size 20 is normally distributed or not? Explain.
You read an online article that claims that 62% of 8-year-olds have social media accounts. You want to investigate that specific claim, so you set up a one-way chi square analysis and recruit 130 8-year-old participants for your sample. What is the expected frequency for the number of 8-year-olds in your sample who have social media accounts? mard Next
Shaver Manufacturing Inc. offers dental insurance to its employees. A recent study by the human resource director shows the annual cost per employee per year followed the normal probability distribution, with a mean of $1,280 and a standard deviation of $420 per year. Use Appendix B.3. What probability of the employees costs between $1,500 and $2,000 per year? (Round z-score computation to 2 decimal places and your final answer to 4 decimal places.)
The MBA program at Dover College has an enrollment of 160 students with an average age of 34.7 years old and a standard deviation 5.2 years. A random sample of 40 MBA students was selected. What is the probability that the average age of the sample is less than 34 years old?
The scores of individual students on the American College Testing (ACT) program composite college entrance examination have a normal distribution with mean 18.6 and standard deviation 6.0. Forty-nine randomly selected seniors take the ACT test. What is the probability that their mean score is less than 18?
