- Childhood vaccinations: In January 2015, the Pew Research Center reported results from one of their surveys. “Asked about whether vaccines for childhood diseases such as measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) and polio should be required or left up to parental choice, 68% of adults say such vaccines should be required while 30% say that parents should be able to decide whether or not to vaccinate their children.” The following is an excerpt from the press release: The survey of the general public was conducted using a probability-based sample of the adult population by landline and cellular telephone Aug. 15-25, 2014, with a representative sample of 2,002 adults nationwide. The margin of sampling error for results based on all adults is plus or minus 3.1 percentage points. Source: C. Funk and L. Raine. Public and Scientists’ Views on Science and Society (2015) Which of the following statements is correct when interpreting the 95% confidence interval for these findings? 1. We are 95%…In a study about learning styles, researchers used a group of 64 elementary school students who volunteered to be part of the study. The researchers gave each student a pre-test and based upon the results, they divided them into 32 pairs of similarly scoring students. School administrators then randomly assigned one student from each pair to mathematics instruction online while the other student received in-person instruction in a traditional classroom. At the end of the year, all 64 students received a mathematics assessment, measured on a 100-point scale. The researchers calculated the difference (in person −− online) in the mathematics assessment scores for each pair of students. The 32 differences had a mean of 15 and a standard deviation of 3.9 points. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean difference (in person −− online) in the mathematics assessment scores for all pairs of students like these who learn math either face-to-face or online.a) A public health researcher is interested in some factors that influence heart disease. In a survey of 68 randomly selected localities, he gathered data on the percentage of people in each locality who bike to work “Biking”, the percentage of people in each locality who smoke “Smoking”, and the percentage of people in each locality who have heart disease “Heart.Disease”. The researcher wants to find which explanatory variable will be a better predictor of the response variable, “Heart.Disease”. Investigate the relationship between the explanatory variables and response variable to help the researcher find the better predictor. The dataset is called “Heart Disease.” b) The regression equation for “Biking” and “Heart. Disease is= 18.115809 - 0.20845321 Biking. Q1) In one randomly selected location, the researcher found the biking rate was 70%. Use this information to predict the corresponding rate of heart disease in that location. Use the regression equation in part (h) to predict the…
- Since first year students reported at the University of Nairobi, a shop attendant at students hall of residence has noticed an increase in sales of fanta soda. As a statistician and market analyst, you would wish to know if there is relationship between soda preference and year level of study at the University of Nairobi.

They asked a random sample of males and females, the following question: "Are you annoyed by people who repeatedly check their mobile phones while having an in-person conversation?" Among the 505 males surveyed, 171 responded "Yes"; among the 522 females surveyed, 202 responded "Yes." Does the evidence suggest a higher proportion of females are annoyed by this behavior? Complete parts (a) through (g) below. C -0.0484 ő 0 0.0484 (e) Determine the P-value based on the model from part (d). First find the test statistic for this hypothesis test.

- 2.- The journal Behavioral Research in Accounting published a study of Machiavellian traits in accountants. Machiavellian describes negative character traits that include manipulation, cunning, duplicity, deception, and bad faith. A questionnaire by email was administered to a random sample of 700 accounting alumni of a large southwestern university; however, due to nonresponse and incomplete answers, only 198 questionnaires could be analyzed. Several variables were measured, including age, gender, level of education, income, job satisfaction score, and Machiavellian (“Mach") rating score. The research findings suggest that Machiavellian behavior is not required to achieve success in the accounting profession. a) What is the populatidn of interest to the researcher? Answer: Business accountants in the southwest Accountants in general Accounting alumni from this university Business alumni from this university b) What inference was made by the researcher? Answer: Accountants are always…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?A warehouse manager wants to know if there is an association between the shift worked and being on time for work. To investigate, he selects a random sample of 70 workers and classifies each one according to the shift they worked most recently and whether they were on time for work. He was unable to classify a substantial number of people as being on time, so he classified those individuals as unknown. The data are displayed in the table. The manager would like to know if these data provide convincing evidence of an association between the shift worked and being on time in the large population of all workers at this warehouse. The random and 10% conditions are met. Is the Large Counts condition met? Yes, the smallest expected count is 5, so all expected counts are at least 5. Yes, the smallest expected count is 8.54, so all expected counts are at least 5. No, the smallest expected count is 2.56, so the expected counts are not all at least 5. No, the smallest expected count is…

In a study of the cultural importance of the waterfall, two groups of the Snoqualmie tribe were randomly surveyed. One group consisted of Snoqualmie members living less than 25 miles from the waterfall. Another group consisted of Snoqualmie members living more than 25 miles from the waterfall. The researchers asked each member to rate the cultural importance of the waterfall as low, medium, or high. Data from the study are presented in the following table. Members Living More Than 25 Miles from the Waterfall Members Living Less Than 25 Miles from the Waterfall Total Low 25 17 42 Medium 8 21 29 High 5 12 17 Total 38 50 88 If the distributions of ratings are the same for those Snoqualmie members living less than 25 miles from the waterfall and those living more than 25 miles from the waterfall, which of the following is equal to the expected count of members living less than 25 miles from the…A study was conducted in Thailand to study the association between Vitamin A deficiency and death among children with measles.
