Application Exercise: A food company has developed a high mineral sea salt (sodium). A nurse practitioner hypothesizes that getting more sodium from the new sea salt predicts an increase in blood pressure. Below are the sodium and BP measurements for a sample of participants that regularly use the new sea salt. What can the nurse practitioner conclude with an a of 0.05? Sodium BP 8.3 8.2 8.3 8.2 8.4 8.4 8.3 8.2 8.3 187 141 145 167 190 196 190 149 175 a) Select and compute the appropriate statistic. --Select-- b) Obtain/compute the appropriate values to make a decision about Ho Critical Value = Test Statistic = Decision: -Select-- c) Compute the corresponding effect size(s) and indicate magnitude(s). If not appropriate, input and/or select "na" below. Effect Size = Magnitude: --Select--- d) Make an interpretation based on the results. More sodium intake significantly predicts an increase in blood pressure. More sodium intake significantly predicts a decrease in blood pressure. O Sodium intake does not significantly predict blood pressure.
