Researchers have shown that cigarette smoking has a deleterious effect on lung function. In their study of the effect of cigarette smoking on the carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DL) of the lung, Ronald Knudson, W. Kaltenborn and B. Burrows found that current smokers had DL readings significantly lower than either ex-smokers or nonsmokers. The carbon monoxide diffusing capacity for a random sample of current smokers was as follows: 103.768 88.602 73.003 123.086 91.052 92.295 61.675 90.677 84.023 76.014 100.615 88.017 71.210 82.115 89.222 102.754 108.579 73.154 106.755 90.479 Do these data indicate that the mean DL reading for current smokers is lower than 100, the average DL reading for nonsmokers? A. Find the test statistics and interpret the results, a = 0.01? B. Calculate p value and interpret the results. C. Find the confidence interval for a = 0.05.
In a bumper test, three test vehicles of each of three types of autos were crashed into a barrier at 5 mph, and the resulting damage was estimated. Crashes were from three angles: head-on, slanted, and rear-end. The results are shown below. Research questions: Is the mean repair cost affected by crash type and/or vehicle type?

The National Cancer Institute conducted a 2-year study to determine whether cancer death rates for areas near nuclear power plants are higher than for areas without nuclear facilities. A spokesperson for the Cancer Institute said, "From the data at hand, there was no convincing evidence of any increased risk of death from any of the cancers surveyed due to living near nuclear facilities." Let p denote the proportion of the population in areas near nuclear power plants who die of cancer during a given year. The researchers at the Cancer Institute have considered the null and alternative hypotheses below: А. Họ: p = value for areas without nuclear facilities Hạ: p> value for areas without nuclear facilities According to the spokesperson's statement, what is the conclusion of the National Cancer Institute? Select one of the following: Reject Ho Fail to reject Ho Reject Ha Fail to reject Ha

A psychologist would like to research if the Hope scale (Synder, et al., 1991) scores differ between those living in City A and City B. The 12-item scale consisted of two subscales: a 6-item agency subscale and a 6-item pathways subscales. Scores on the 12 items were averaged, with higher scores indicating higher levels of hope. The following scores were obtained.

A small pilot study is run to compare a new drug for chronic pain to one that is currently available. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the new drug or the currently available drug and report improvement in pain on a 5-point ordinal scale: 1=Pain is much worse, 2=Pain is slightly worse, 3= No change, 4=Pain improved slightly, 5=Pain much improved. Is there a significant difference in self-reported improvement in pain? Use the Mann-Whitney U test with a 5% level of significance. Please show work. New Drug: 4 5 3 3 4 2 Standard Drug: 2 3 4 1 2 3
A 1-1 matched case-control study was conducted among office workers on the association between suffering chronic lower back pain and sitting at a PC. There were 118 cases (suffering from back pain), individually matched to controls (not suffering from back pain) on sex, age, and general exercise habits. The exposure was the amount of time spent at a PC. The data are in Table 1: Case > 4 hours/day 4 hours/day 18 13 <4 hours/day 25 62 Use a suitable test to test for no association between suffering chronic lower back pain and time spent sitting at a PC.
Researchers have noted a decline in cognitive functioning as people age (Bartus, 1990). However, the results from other research suggest that the antioxidants in foods such as blueberries may reduce and even reverse these age-related declines (Joseph et al., 1999). To examine this phenomenon, suppose that a researcher obtains a sample of n = 16 adults who are between the ages of 65 and 75. The researcher uses a standardized test to measure cognitive performance for each individual. The participants then begin a 2-month program in which they receive daily doses of a blueberry supplement. At the end of the 2-month period, the researcher again measures cognitive performance for each participant. The results show an average increase in performance of MD = 7.4 with SS = 1215. Does this result support the conclusion that the antioxidant supplement has a significant effect on cognitive performance? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05. Show your computations.
