A group of researchers were interested in ways to lower blood pressure. The study consisted of 90 participants. 30 partcipants were randomly assigned to eat a heart healthy diet, 30 were randomly assigned to a heart healthy exercise routine, and 30 were randomly assigned to do nothing and serve as a control. After. a month of their assigned intervention, partcipants' blood pressure was measured. Which statistical test should be used to compare the 3 intervention types on post-treatment blood pressure? a. one way between subjects ANOVA b. one way repeated measures ANOVA c. two way between subjects ANOVA d. none of these options

An epidemiologist found five cases of “big toe cancer” in the Yukon Territory. Because there were only a few cases, the epidemiologist decided to conduct a matched case-control study to determine whether shoe size larger than 9 is a risk factor for big toe cancer. Cases were individually matched to one control for daily activity, history of athlete’s foot, and history of ingrown toenails. The following data were gathered: Shoe size > 9 Pair Case Control 1 Yes No 2 No No 3 No Yes 4 Yes Yes 5 No Yes Compute the proper measure of association. Interpret your results. If you were to investigate a rare cancer in Lynchburg, where might you look for data? What would be necessary legally and ethically to be able to utilize this data set(s)?

What is the distinguishing feature of a case-control study such as this? An epidemiologist performed a case-control study examining whether tobacco use was associated with oral cancer. The investigator recruited a random sample of 75 adults with oral cancer and 72 adults without oral cancer. Participants were interviewed and asked about their history of tobacco use. O Exposure status was assessed, and then the participants were followed up over time to see who developed the outcome. O The exposure and outcome were measured at the same time, so temporality cannot be established. O Participants were selected based on disease status, and then exposure status was assessed from the past. O The investigator randomized participants into exposure groups and then followed them to see who developed the outcome.
A researcher is studying the effects of his newly created lens on vision. He samples 9 people with poor vision and measures their visual distance (in feet) with the lens and then without the lens. Did people’s vision with the lens differ from their vision without? Participant # With Lens Without Lens 1 8 14 2 6 17 3 9 12 4 7 11 5 5 12 6 9 18 7 8 13 8 9 7 9 7 13 What kind of analysis will you use? Why? State the null and alternative hypothesis. Check your assumptions. Explain why each of them are or are not met. Sketch a distribution and shade the rejection region(s), including the corresponding critical value(s). Using R, calculate your test statistic and interpret the results of your test. (Don’t forget your 95% confidence interval and screenshots of your work!) What do you conclude about the null hypothesis? Are there significant differences?
A substance abuse counselor wants to demonstrate the effect of situational stress on alcohol cravings. He recruits two groups of men who are similar in respect to history of alcohol use and demographic variables. He divides them in to two groups. In one group(n=11), the men are exposed to a stressful situation and then asked to complete a measure rating their alcohol cravings on a scale from 0-10, where 0 representsno cravings and 10 represents intense cravings. In the second group (n=10), the men are exposed to a neutral situation and asked to complete the same measure. What test and graph should I create to find out if a stressful situation result in more intense alcohol cravings than a non-stressful situation?
What test do I need to run?

Rhino viruses typically cause common colds. In a test of the effectiveness of echinacea, 42 of the 48 subjects treated with echinacea developed rhinovirus infections. In a placebo group, 93 of the 109 subjects developed rhinovirus infections. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that echinacea has an effect on rhinovirus infections. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
Researchers investigate how the presence of cell phones influence the quality of human interaction. Subjects are randomly selected from a population and divided into an experimental group that is asked to leave their phones in the front of the room and a control group that are not asked to leave their cell phones at the front of the room. Subjects are left alone for 10 minutes and then asked to take a survey designed to measure quality of interactions they had with others in the experiment. What statistical test is appropriate?
When a t-test is used to compare pre- and post-treatment data. What does the t-test reveal about the difference between baseline and treatment?
A one-way ANOVA was conducted at ? = 0.05. The study involved three (3) different groups with 12 subjects in each. The means for each group were as follows: ?1 = 10.92, ?2 = 13.83, ??? ?3 = 14.92. The sum of squares values is shown in the table below.
An epidemiologist wants to evaluate the most effective method to teach the public about preventative health. They compare the following 3 treatments; posters with information about healthy habits, social media posts about healthy habits, and TV commercials suggesting healthy habits. Which of the following tests is appropriate for this study? a. Independent Measures t-test (between subjects) b. ANOVA c. Two-Factor ANOVA d. Repeated Measure t-test (within-subjects)
Below indicate whether the appropriate test would be an independent t-test, dependent t-test, One-way ANOVA, or z-test. A researcher wants to know if people find baby animals cuter than adult animals. All of the participants in a study are shown 10 pictures of baby animals and 10 pictures of adult animals. They are asked to rate (on a 1 to 10 scale) how cute they think each animal is.
