Determine your independent and dependent variables, which type of ANOVA would you choose, and how much replication would be needed. Farmer Joe has eight different plots of land. He applies two different nitrogen levels randomly to each of the 8 plots, low and high. In addition, four different strawberry varieties are randomized within the plots. He is measuring mass of fruit for his outcome. I would like to see if there is a difference in birth weight among cat breeds. I will measure 5 different cat breeds.
An experiment to test the effectiveness of regular treatments with fluoride varnish to reduce tooth decay involved 36 volunteers who had half of their teeth (the right side or left side, determined by a coin flip) painted with a fluoride varnish every six month for 5 years. At the end of the treatments, the number of new cavities during the treatment period was compared on treatment (fluoride varnish) side versus the control (no fluoride varnish) side. The appropriate statistical test for analyzing the results of this experiment is O Paired t test for a mean difference O One sample z test for a population mean O Two sample t test for a difference in means O One sample z test for a population proportion O Two sample z test for a difference in proportions
A research team is interested in the effect of the Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) in reducing children’s disruptive behaviors for children with disruptive behavior disorders (DBD). The research team recruited 12 families with child with DBD and interviewed the parents about the number of the disruptive behaviors the child has at home. After 3 weeks’ therapy, the research interviewed again about child’s disruptive behaviors. The disruptive before and after the therapy is list below. Test the researcher’s hypothesis at a 0.05 significant level. List 4 steps.
Peter Boag, studied the inheritance of beak depth in Galapagos finches by looking at the relationship between parent beak depth (in mm) and that of their offspring. He collected two sets of parent offspring data, once in 1976 and again in 1978. For both years he followed birds to determine which pairs belonged to which nests. Most of the parents had been previously captured so their beak depths were known. He then captured the offspring when they fledged and measured their beak depth. He calculated the "midparent" beak depth (the average beak depth of the two parents) and then compared that to beak depth of their offspring. Use regression analysis to estimate heritability for the trait beak depth from the Galapagos finches data in the above table.
Scientists are interested in the placebo effect on adults with arthritis. They randomly choose 15 adults with arthritis and give them 2 treatments: effective drug and placebo for 1 week at different times. At the end of each week, the scientists ask the participants to rate their arthritic pain level on a scale of 1-5, where 1 is little pain and 5 is a lot of pain. The researchers then take the difference of their pain levels (affective drug - placebo). The data are below. 0, 1, 2, 2, 0, -1, 3, 1, 2, -1, 0, 1, -2, -1, -6 (a) Find the 5-number summary for the difference of arthritic pain levels. Minimum = Q₁ = Median = USE SALT Q3 = Maximum = (b) One of the conditions for inference for population mean difference of paired data is normality. Outliers within a data set cast a shadow of doubt upon the normality of the population distribution. Use the 5-number summary calculated in part (a) to determine if there are any outliers in the data set. Which of the values, if any, is an outlier…
As the manager of a fashion brand, you have recently run a large-scale campaign to draw attention to your company's CSR activities and thus improve the brand's image. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the campaign, you conducted a survey at major fashion stores to measure the attitudes towards. your brand at two points of time: before the campaign started and after the campaign finished. By summing up respondents' answers to 3 questions (each measuring a particular aspect of attitude on a 1-5 scale), a single overall measure of attitude is obtained for each participant. This measure can therefore range from 3 to 15, with a score of 3 representing and extremely negative attitude and a score of 15 representing an extremely positive attitude. To check whether male and female customers have different attitudes towards you company, as well as to test whether the campaign may have affected males and females differently, you ask the respondents to report their gender. You analyse the…
Researchers suspect that drinking tea might enhance the production of interferon gamma, a molecule that helps the immune system fight bacteria, viruses, and tumors. A recent study involved 20 healthy people who did not normally drink tea or coffee. Ten of the participants were randomly assigned to drink five cups of tea a day, while 10 were asked to drink the same amount of coffee. After two weeks, blood samples were exposed to an antigen and production of interferon gamma were measured. The results are shown in the following table: Теа: 55 17 54 49 10 46 21 14 53 Coffee: 16 12 20 52 37 15 22 30 3 Let X ~ N(ux,o3) be the interferon gamma production for participants who drink tea and observations for the ten participants who drink tea are a random sample from X. Let Y ~ N(uy,o) be the interferon gamma production for participants who drink coffee and observations for the ten participants who drink coffee are a random sample from Y. Some R output that may help. > p1 qnorm(p1) [1] -2.326…
In late July 2016, the Ohio Department of Health collected vials of water from 12 beaches on Lake Erie to investigate water quality. Those vials were being tested for E. coli bacteria which are found in human and animal feces and can cause illness and disease, should a swimmer accidentally ingest some water. These beaches had been found to be safe earlier in the summer with E. coli counts, on average of 88 per 100-millileter vial (about 3.4 ounces). However, E. coli counts can change due to weather and other variables. Experts consider it unsafe if a vial contains more than 88 E. coli bacteria. The mean E. coli count in the 12 vials was found to be 113.75 with a standard deviation of 93.9. Is this evidence that the water is unsafe? Test at the 1% level of significance. a) State the hypotheses. b) Find the test statistic and p-value. c) Based on your p-value, state whether or not you will reject the null hypothesis and a statement of your findings, relating back to the problem.
You are concerned that nausea may be a side effect of Tamiflu, but you cannot just give Tamiflu to patients with the flu and say that nausea is a side effect if people become nauseous. This is because nausea is common for people who have the flu. From past studies you know that about 30% of people who get the flu experience nausea. You collected data on 1744 patients who were taking Tamiflu to relieve symtoms of the flu, and found that 572 experienced nausea. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the percentage of people who take Tamiflu for the relief of flu symtoms and experience nausea is greater than 30%.a) Identify the null and alternative hypotheses?�0: �1: b) What type of hypothesis test should you conduct (left-, right-, or two-tailed)? left-tailed right-tailed two-tailed c) Identify the appropriate significance level.d) Calculate your test statistic. Write the result below, and be sure to round your final answer to two decimal…
A researcher is studying two types of medication that both treat hives. 23 out of the random sample of 270 adults given medication A still had hives 30 minutes after taking the medication. 15 out of another random sample of 300 adults given medication B still had hives 30 minutes after taking the medication. Test to see if the proportion of people who still had hives after medicine A is different than the proportion of people who still had hives after medicine B. Use a 0.01 level of significance. The correct hypotheses are: Ho:PA PB (claim) Ho :PA PB H A:PA < PB (claim) Но :РА На :РА # рв (claim) = PB Since the level of significance is 0.01 the critical value is 2.576 and -2.576 The test statistic is: 1.684 x (round to 3 places) The p-value is: 0.092 x (round to 3 places) The decision can be made to:
Fish produce a hormone called isotocin, a hormone that is similar to oxytocin in mammals. Both hormones, oxytocin and isotocin, have been linked to social behaviors including the suppression of social anxiety, trust, and attachment. Prior to this study the relationship between isotocin in the bloodstream and the amount of aggression or submission individual cichlid fish display was unknown. The researchers hypothesized that isotocin would suppress aggressive behaviors in cichlids to promote social cohesion as these fish exist in large social groups (schools). To address this hypothesis each of 10 fish were exposed to two treatments 1 week apart. One at a time a fish was randomly selected from the group of 10 and either injected with a saline solution ( that served as the control) or with isotocin. After this injection the fish was returned to its group and the amount of aggressive and submissive behaviors the fish demonstrated was recorded for the next 10 minutes. One week later this…
