Ten individuals have participated in a diet-modification program to stimulate weight loss. Their weights both before and after participation in the program is shown in the following list. Is there evidence to support the claim that this particular diet- modification program is effective in producing mean weight reduction? Compare the weight before to the weight after the diet modification program.

Studies suggest that women who smoke during pregnancy affect the birth weights of their newborn infants. To study this issue further, a sample of 10 women smokers were asked to estimate the average number of cigarettes they smoke per day. In the following table are their estimates and the birth weight (in kgs) of their child.

The mean birthweight of an infant is thought to be associated with the smoking status of the mother during the first trimester of the pregnancy. Consider the following data from mothers divided into four categories according to smoking habits, and the corresponding birthweights of their children. Group 1: Mother is a non smoker (NON): 7.5, 6.2, 6.9, 7.4, 9.2, 8.3, 7.6 Group 2: Mother is an ex-smoker (EX): 5.8, 7.3, 8.2, 7.1, 7.8 Group 3: Mother is a current smoker, smokes less than 1 pack per day (CUR < 1) 5.9, 6.2, 5.8, 4.7, 8.3, 7.2, 6.2 Group 4: Mother is a current smoker, smokes more than or equal to 1 pack per day (Cur ≥ 1) 6.2, 6.8, 5.7, 4.9, 6.2, 7.1, 5.8, 5.4 Using Stata test whether or not the mean birthweights are equal across all four groups at the alpha = 0.05 level.
