A small pilot study is run to compare a new drug for chronic pain to one that is currently available. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the new drug or the currently available drug and report improvement in pain on a 5-point ordinal scale: 1=Pain is much worse, 2=Pain is slightly worse, 3= No change, 4=Pain improved slightly, 5=Pain much improved. Is there a significant difference in self-reported improvement in pain? Use the Mann-Whitney U test with a 5% level of significance. Please show work. New Drug: 4 5 3 3 4 2 Standard Drug: 2 3 4 1 2 3

A two-way ANOVA experiment with interaction was conducted. Factor A had three levels (columns), factor B had five levels (rows), and six observations were obtained for each combination. Assume normality in the underlying populations. The results include the following sum of squares terms: SST=1542 SSA= 1042 SSB = 358 SSAB = 39 a. Construct an ANOVA table. (Round "MS" to 4 decimal places and "F" to 3 decimal places.) ANOVA Source of Variation Rows Columns Interaction Error Total SS 0 df Answer is not complete. 0 MS F p- value 0.000 0.000 0.002

Use Excel’s Data Analysis tool to conduct a multiple regression, using Risk of Stroke as the dependent variable, and all the rest of variables as independent variables. Choose confidence level at 99%.

Neurosurgery Operative Times. An Arizona State University professor, R. Jacobowitz, Ph.D., in consultation with G. Vishteh, M.D., and other neurosurgeons obtained data on operative times, in minutes, for both a dynamic system (Z-plate) and a static system (ALPS plate). They wanted to perform a hypothesis test to decide whether the mean operative time is less with the dynamic system than with the static system. a. identify the variable. b. identify the two populations. c. determine the null and alternative hypotheses. d. classify the hypothesis test as two tailed, left tailed, or right tailed.
Students in an AP Statistics class wanted to determine if a person's hand span is associated with the number of candies he or she can pick up from a bowl of candy. For the fourteen students in the class, each student's hand span and the number of candies he or she was able to pick up was recorded. A least- squares analysis was conducted on the number of candies versus hand span. The conditions for inference were checked and deemed reasonable. The regression analysis output is given in the table below. Predictor Constant Coef -8.74 SE Coef T P 10.81. -0.81 0.434 Hand span 1.26 0.52 2.44 0.031 S=3.34 R-Sq 33.1%
The relationship between United States unemployment and inflation rates during the Covid-19 pandemic. Background The covid-19 pandemic has led to higher unemployment rates in the United States than normal because many people were laid off jobs in response to the pandemic (Al-Fadly, 2020). It is important to analyze how such as sharp increase in unemployment affected inflation in relation to how unemployment have traditionally affected inflation. The overall relationship between unemployment and inflation has traditionally been an inverse one. It is argued that when unemployment rates are higher, the number of individuals who are looking for jobs usually becomes higher than the number of job positions that are available (Putnam & Azzarello, 2015). In such a situation, employers tend to pay lower wages because there is abundance of workers which naturally leads to a lower wage inflation. This study will examine the relationship between unemployment rates and inflation rate during…
Roediger and Karpicke (2006) investigated whether the test-enhanced learning effect (the demonstration that repeated testing improves memory for material) was due merely to repeated exposure to material. They randomly assigned participants to one of two conditions(study-study or study-test) and to one of three interval conditions (final test at a delay of 5 minutes, 2 days, or 1 week). The dependent variable was the proportion of idea units recalled for an encyclopedia. How should this be labeled? a. 4x2 between-groups ANOVA b. 2x2 within-groups ANOVA c. 2x3 within-groups ANOVA d. 2x3 between-groups ANOVA
