Test for differences (a) between ovalbumin-sensitized and nonsensitized outcomes, (b) among thethree different exposures, and (c) interaction. Let a = .05 for all tests. 16. In a study of pulmonary effects on guinea pigs, Lacroix et al. (A-30) exposed 18 ovalbumin-sensitized guinea pigs and 18 nonsensitized guinea pigs to regular air, benzaldehyde, andacetaldehyde. At the end of exposure, the guinea pigs were anesthetized and allergicresponses were assessed in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). The following table shows thealveolar cell count (x10°) by treatment group for the ovalbumin-sensitized and nonsensitizedguinea pigs.Ovalbumin-SensitizedTreatmentAlveolar Count ×106noacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeairair49.9050.6050.35nonono44.1036.30nono39.15no24.1524.6022.55nonoairnoair25.1022.6526.8531.10noairnoairbenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydeacetaldehydenono18.3019.35nono15.4027.10no21.9090.3072.95138.60noyesyesyes80.0569.2531.7040.2063.2059.1079.60yesyesyesairyesairyesуesairairуesair102.4564.6022.1522.7522.15yesairyesyesyesyesyesbenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehydebenzaldehyde37.8519.35yes66.70yesSource: Data provided courtesy of G.

A study of parental empathy for sensitivity cues and baby temperament (higher scores mean more empathy) was performed. Let x, be a random variable that represents the score of a mother on an empathy test (as regards her baby). Let x, be the empathy score of a father. A random sample of 35 mothers gave a sample mean of x, = 69.38. Another random sample of 34 fathers gave x, = 57.34. Assume that o, = 11.27 and o, = 11.17. (a) Let u, be the population mean of x, and let u, be the population mean of x,. Find a 99% confidence interval for u, - µz. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit upper limit (b) Examine the confidence interval and explain what it means in the context of this problem. Does the confidence interval contain all positive, all negative, or both positive and negative numbers? What does this tell you about the relationship between average empathy scores for mothers compared with those for fathers at the 99% confidence level? O Because the interval contains…
A medical researcher is interested in determining if there is a relationship between adults over 50 who exercise regularly and levels of blood pressure. A random sample of 236 adults over 50 is selected and the results are given below. Calculate the test statistic to test the claim that regular exercise and blood pressure are independent. Use α = 0.01.
Two separate samples receive two different treatments. The first treatment group (N = 9) has a mean of 50 with SS = 710. The second treatment group (N = 6) has a mean of 60 with SS = 460. Is the second treatment group significantly larger than the first? What is the effect size?

The following data show the pattern of results that was obtained in a study by Liguori and Robinson (2001) examining how different levels of alcohol and caffeine consumption influenced response time in a simulated driving test. The means show the average response time in milliseconds for different combinations of alcohol and caffeine. Remember larger reaction time means someone is slower to respond. For these data, indicate which are true/false There is an interaction, caffeine has a larger impact on reaction times (makes people respond faster) when participants haven’t had alcohol) A. True B. False
Solid fats are more likely to raise blood cholesterol levels than liquid fats. Suppose a nutritionist analyzed the percentage of saturated fat for a sample of 6 brands of stick margarine (solid fat) and for a sample of 6 brands of liquid margarine and obtained the following results: Stick:[25.5,26.7,26.5,26.6,26.3,26.4] Liquid:[16.5,17.1,17.5,17.3,17.2,16.7] We want to determine if there a significant difference in the average amount of saturated fat in solid and liquid fats. What is the test statistic? a) z = 39.604 b) t = 25.263 c) t = 39.604 d) z = 39.104 e) t = 39.104
A study was conducted to determine if lung cancer altered levels of surfactant in the alveoli of the lung. Seven healthy subjects in the study yielded the following data on surfactant levels: 18, 12, 15, 15, 16, 9, 17. Seven lung cancer patients yielded the following results: 16, 8, 7, 15, 11, 12, 9. Do these data indicate a difference in the surfactant level with cancer? Let α = 0.05. Give the p-value.

A researcher wanted to examine whether type of dog food (freeze dried meat vs generic brand kibble) would affect dogs’ attention span. The researcher hypothesized that dogs who ate freeze dried meat would have longer attention spans than those who ate generic brand kibble. The researcher used a single sample of 13 subjects, that took part in both treatment conditions. The researcher set the alpha level at .01. The mean of the difference scores (MD)was 7.0 and the SSD for the difference in attention spans was 144. What is the calculated test statistic to the nearest thousandth? Be sure to put the positive or negative sign in front of it. Note: SHOW ALL WORK!!! Based on your work above, do you reject or retain the null? reject retain Based on your conclusion regarding the null, was there a treatment effect? Yes No
According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.34. Suppose a random sample of 109 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 50 that involved a positive BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the x = 0.01 level of significance? Because npo (1-Po) = 24.5 > 10, the sample size is (Round to one decimal place as needed.) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? p = 0.34 versus H₁: p > 0.34 Ho: p (Type integers or decimals.
