#30 ## Positive Predictive Value Calculation for Drug Test### Scenario Description:A person is working for a company with a mandatory drug-testing policy. It is estimated that 2% of the employees use a certain drug. The company administers a drug test that is 96% accurate in identifying drug users. ### Problem Statement:Calculate the positive predictive value (PPV) for the drug test.### Explanation:The Positive Predictive Value (PPV) is the probability that subjects with a positive screening test are truly drug users. ### Formula:\[ \text{PPV} = \frac{\text{true positives}}{\text{true positives} + \text{false positives}} \]- True Positive: The test correctly identifies someone as a drug user.- False Positive: The test incorrectly identifies someone as a drug user.### Given Data:- Prevalence of drug use (P(D)) = 2% or 0.02- Sensitivity of the test (P(T+|D)) = 96% or 0.96### Calculation:Assuming a population size of 1000 employees for simplicity:- Expected number of drug users: \( 1000 \times 0.02 = 20 \)- Expected number of non-users: \( 1000 - 20 = 980 \)- True Positives: \( 20 \times 0.96 = 19.2 \)- False Positives: \( 980 \times (1 - 0.96) = 39.2 \)Using the PPV formula:\[ \text{PPV} = \frac{19.2}{19.2 + 39.2} \approx 0.329 \]Thus, the positive predictive value is approximately **32.9%**.### Input Area:The positive predictive value is [ ].*(Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)*---In an educational context, learners should understand the relationship between prevalence, sensitivity, and PPV. Practical application of these concepts helps in interpreting test results accurately.
