In a randomized controlled trial, insecticide-treated bednets were tested as a way to reduce malaria. Among 349 infants using bednets, 22 developed malaria. Among 257 infants not using bednets, 23 developed malaria. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the incidence of malaria is lower for infants using bednets. Do the bednets appear to be effective? Conduct the hypothesis test by using the results from the given display.

Q1: Placebo effect of exercise In a high-profile research study, Crum and Langer (2007) performed an experiment to test whether the relationship between physical exercise and health is impacted by one's mindset: in other words, if there is any "placebo effect" of exercise. A sample of 84 randomly selected hotel workers in the United States were placed either into a treatment group (n=44) or control group (n=40) depending on which hotel they worked at. The treatment group was given information demonstrating how their work is good physical exercise, while the control group was not given this information. They measured the body mass index (BMI) for each worker before the experiment and again four weeks after the experiment. a. Are the treatment group and control group independent of each other, and if so why? b. Now consider the treatment group alone: are the measurements of BMI taken before and after the experiment independent of each other, and if so why? c. What is the most appropriate…
According to a recent poll, the percentage of Americans who would vote for the incumbent president is 53%. If a random sample of 100 people in New York results in 45% who would vote for the incumbent, test the claim that the percentage of people in New York who would vote for the incumbent president is different from 53%. Use the following results and a 0.10 significance level to state your decision about H0. H0 : p=0.53 H1 : p≠0.53 test statistic: z = -1.6 p value = 0.1090
In a clinical trial of a drug intended to help people stop smoking, 125 subjects were treated with the drug for 12 weeks, and 14 subjects experienced abdominal pain. If someone claims that more than 8% of the drug's users experience abdominal pain, that claim is supported with a hypothesis test conducted with a 0.05 significance level. Using 0.17 as an alternative value of p, the power of the test is 0.95. Interpret this value of the power of the test. The power of 0.95 shows that there is a % chance of rejecting the hypothesis of p = when the true proportion is actually That is, if the proportion of users who experience abdominal pain is actually then there is a % chance of supporting the claim that the proportion of than 0.08. users who experience abdominal pain is (Type integers or decimals.

A researcher wants to examine the effect of daily mental exercises on cognitive performance of people in early stages of Alzheimer's disease. She enrolled to her study n = 16 patients diagnosed with the early stage of Alzheimer's disease and all participants conducted daily mental exercises for a month. At the end of the program all enrolled patients took the MMSE test (i.e., Mini-Mental State Examination). The results show that the sample mean on the MMSE test was M = 23.6 with the standard deviation, s = 7. It is known that the MMSE mean in the population of patients with early Alzheimer's disease is µ = 20. Do these data show a significant effect of daily mental exercises on cognitive performance in early stages of Alzheimer's disease?
Spam: A researcher reported that 71.8 % of all email sent in a recent month was spam. A system manager at a large corporation believes that the percentage at his company may be 69%. He examines a random sample of 500 emails received at an email server, and finds that 365 of the messages are spam. Can you conclude that greater than 69% of emails are spam? Use both a=0.01 and a= 0.05 levels of significance and the critical value method with the table. Part 1 of 5 State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. Ho: P- .69 H1: p> .69 This hypothesis test is a right-tailed V test. Part 2 of 5 Find the critical values. Round the answers to three decimal places. For a=0.01 , the critical value is 2.326 For a=0.05 , the critical value is 1.645 Part: 2/5 Part 3 of 5 Compute the test statistic. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the answer to two decimal places.

At the 1% significance level, the data do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the amount of time American teenagers watch television per week is different from 14.1 hours.

A newspaper conducted a statewide survey concerning the 1998 race for state senator. The newspaper took a SRS of n=1300 registered voters and found that 670 would vote for the Republican candidate. Let p represent the proportion of registered voters in the state who would vote for the Republican candidate.We test Ho: p=.5 Ha: p>.5 What is the -statistic for this test? What is the P-value of the test?
A new method was developed to reduce variability of test scores by eliminating lower scores. Two groups, one called the control group and the other, the experimental group, both took the same test. The experimental group was taught using the new method. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that there is less variation among scores when the new method is used?
