A:
A study was performed to test the effectiveness of aspirin in the treatment of
strokes. There were 155 patients in the study. A random sample of 78 of these
patients were placed in the “aspirin” group, and the remaining 77 in the “control”
group. After six months of treatment, all the patients were evaluated and their
condition recorded as either favorable or unfavorable. Of the 78 “aspirin” patients,
63 had favorable outcomes; of the 77 “control” patients, 43 had favorable
outcomes. We want to test the null hypothesis that the percentage of favorable
outcomes is the same between the two conditions.
Calculate the p-value and express what it means in plain words.
Do you reject the null hypothesis? State your conclusion in the context of the
original problem.

- Researchers recruited 1000 10- and 20-year-olds to participate in a study about age differences in aggression and the impact of violent video games on aggression. For 1-hour per day, half the participants were randomly assigned to play violent video games, while the other half played a nonviolent video game. A test for aggression was administered at the end of the year, and each participant received a score between 1 and 50 (higher scores indicate greater aggression). The results of the study are shown below: Factor 1 10 years 20 years old old Violent 35 25 Factor games 2 Nonviolent 25 45 games Is there a main effect of age? If so, which age shows more aggression?Researchers conducted trials to investigate the effects of color on creativity. Subjects with a red background were asked to think of creative uses for a brick; other subjects with a blue background were given the same task.

- An antidepressant has historically been known to relieve depression for 80% of patients who use the drug. The drug's formula was changed recently to include a smaller dose of its main, active ingredient. Due to this change, a medical researcher suspects that among all people with depression who use the new version of the drug, the proportion, p, of people who find relief is lower than 80%. A random sample of 215 patients who use the new version is selected by the researcher, and 159 of them find relief from depression. Based on these data, can we support the researcher's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H and the alternative hypothesis H₁. H:0 H₁ :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. (Choose one) ▼ (c) Find the value…A pharmaceutical company proposed a vaccine that would combat paralytic polio. Two independent random samples were collected from the population. One random sample of 201,229 was given the placebo, and among them 100,910 contracted paralytic polio. The other random sample of 200,745 was given the vaccine, and among them 50,033 people ended up contracting paralytic polio. Let the true proportion of cases of paralytic polio given placebo be p1p1 and the true proportion of cases of paralytic polio given vaccine be p2. Calculate the upper bound of a 95% confidence interval for p1−p2. Round your answer to three decimal places.Researchers investigate how the presence of cell phones influence the quality of human interaction. Subjects are randomly selected from a population and divided into an experimental group that is asked to leave their phones in the front of the room and a control group that are not asked to leave their cell phones at the front of the room. Subjects are left alone for 10 minutes and then asked to take a survey designed to measure quality of interactions they had with others in the experiment. What statistical test is appropriate?
- A study used 1259 patients who had suffered a stroke. The study randomly assigned each subject to an aspirin treatment or a placebo treatment. During a 3-year follow-up period, in Sample 1, 634 people received placebo treatments and 25 people died from heart attack. In sample 2, 625 people received aspirin treatment and 18 died from heart attack. Let pl denote the population proportion of death from heart attack for those with no treatment and p2 denote the population proportion of death from heart attack for those with aspirin treatment. (c) Which of SEO and SE1 is used for calculating a confidence interval for comparing two population proportions? Which is used for calculating the test statistic in a hypothesis test? (d) Construct the 95% confidence interval for pi – p2. Interpret.A random sample of n1 = 157 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from the island of Oahu, Hawaii, and 12 were found to be high school dropouts. Another random sample of n2 = 129 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from Sweetwater County, Wyoming, and 6 were found to be high school dropouts. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of high school dropouts on Oahu is different (either way) from that of Sweetwater County? Use a 1% level of significance. (a) What is the level of significance? What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Test the difference p1 − p2. Do not use rounded values. Round your final answer to two decimal places.) (c) Find (or estimate) the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)A large clinical trial of the effect of diet on breast cancer assigned women at random to either a normal diet or a low-fat diet. To check that the random assignment did produce comparable groups, we can compare the two groups at the start of the study. Asked if there is a family history of breast cancer: 1276 of the 5964 women in the low-fat group and 1507 of the 7726 women in the control group said "Yes." If the random assignment worked well, there should not be a significant difference in the proportions with a family history of breast cancer. How significant is the observed difference? State: Is there evidence of a difference in the proportion of women with a family history of breast cancer between the treatment and control groups? Plan: Let pi be the proportion for the treatment group, and Pz the proportion for the control group. State the hypotheses for your test. Ha:Pi + P2 Solve: Give the value of the test statistic.

- Twenty middle-aged men with glucose readings between 90 milligrams per deciliter and 120 milligrams per deciliter of blood were selected randomly from the population of similar male patients at a large local hospital. Ten of the 20 men were assigned randomly to group A and received a placebo. The other 10 men were assigned to group B and received a new glucose drug. After two months, posttreatment glucose readings were taken for all 20 men and were compared with pretreatment readings. The reduction in glucose level (Pretreatment reading − Posttreatment reading) for each man in the study is shown here. Group A (placebo) reduction (in milligrams per deciliter): 12, 8, 17, 7, 20, 2, 5, 9, 12, 6 Group B (glucose drug) reduction (in milligrams per deciliter): 29, 31, 13, 19, 21, 5, 24, 12, 8, 21 Part A: Do the data provide convincing evidence, at the α = 0.02 level, that the glucose drug is effective in producing a reduction in mean glucose level? Part B: Create and interpret a 98%…ester Hollar is vice president for human resources for a large manufacturing company. In recent years, he has noticed an increase in absenteeism that he thinks is related to the general health of the employees. Four years ago, in an attempt to improve the situation, he began a fitness program in which employees exercise during their lunch hour. To evaluate the program, he selected a random sample of eight participants and found the number of days each was absent in the six months before the exercise program began and in the six months following the exercise program. Below are the results. Employee Before After 1 6 5 2 6 2 3 7 1 4 7 3 5 4 3 6 3 6 7 5 3 8 6 7 At the 0.05 significance level, can he conclude that the number of absences has declined?

Assume that those individuals given the drug are examined before receiving the treatment and then again after receiving the treatment to determine if there was a change in their symptom status. If the initial results showed that 2.0% of individuals entered the study in remission, 77.0% of individuals entered the study with mild symptoms, 16.0% of individuals entered the study with moderate symptoms, and 5.0% entered the study with severe symptoms calculate and interpret a chi-squared test to determine if the drug was effective treating psoriasis given the information below from the final examination. A. We reject H0 because 6628.08 is greater than 11.07. We have statistically significant evidence at the alpha equals .05 level to show that the distribution of the severity of psoriasis cases at the end of the clinical trial for the sample is different from the distribution of the severity of psoriasis…
