A medical social worker is interested in examining the relationship between patients who receive social support by family members (yes/no) and the patients’ outcome (failure/success). She collected data over a period of a month (N=100). A chi square analysis revealed the following: χ2= 5.65, df = ?, p = .01. 3. Is the relationship between social support and patients’ outcome statistically significant (use the traditional rejection level)? How do you know?

Dr. Guidry conducts a study examining the relationship between the number of friends one has and the experience of daily stress and life satisfaction. She randomly samples 1,500 elderly men and women in Nashville, Tennessee (the state capital), located in the southern United States. Below are her findings.• Life satisfaction and experience of daily stress: r = .57 (p = .01)• Number of friends one has and experience of daily stress: r = .09, not sig.• Number of friends one has and life satisfaction: r = .36 (p = .04) Which of the following conclusions can Dr. Guidry draw about the number of friends one has and life satisfaction based on her statistical analyses? a. The probability of her sample coming from a zero association population is about 4%. (correct answer) b. The probability of her sample coming from a zero association population is about 96%. c. The relationship is not statistically significant. d. The strong correlation means that the number of friends one has causes an…

Studies have shown that people who suffer sudden cardiac arrest have a better chance of survival if a defibrillator shock is administered very soon after cardiac arrest. How is survival rate related to the time between when cardiac arrest occurs and when the defibrillator shock is delivered? The accompanying data give y = survival rate (percent) and x = mean call-to-shock time (minutes) for a cardiac rehabilitation center (in which cardiac arrests occurred while victims were hospitalized and so the call-to-shock time tended to be short) and for four communities of different sizes: Mean call-to-shock time, x Survival rate, y The data were used to compute the equation of the least-squares line, which was ŷ = 100.90 9.21x. A newspaper article reported that "every minute spent waiting for paramedics to arrive with a defibrillator lowers the chance of survival by 10 percent." Is this statement consistent with the given least-squares line? Explain. O Since the slope of the least-squares line…

How would you describe the relationship between mean call-to-shock time and survival rate? O There is a strong positive relationship. The relationship is close to being linear, particularly if the point with the lowest x value is disregarded. If that point is included then there is the suggestion of a curve. O There is a strong positive relationship. The relationship is close to being linear, particularly if the point with the highest x value is disregarded. If that point is included then there is the suggestion of a curve. O There is a strong negative relationship.
