The quality control department of a fabric factory was studying the effect of two factors, i.e. operator and cycle time (in minutes), on the dyeing of a cloth used in manufacturing shirts. Three operators and four cycle times were selected. Two small specimens of cloths were dyed under each combination of cycle time and operator. The three operators were selected at random but only four cycle times were used in the experiment. The finished cloth was compared to a standard and a numerical score was given. The following results were obtained: Cycle Operator Time 1 3 40 17, 20 16, 21 24, 22 50 12, 9 18, 13 17, 12 60 16, 12 18, 21 25, 23 70 21, 17 23, 21 23, 22 Assume that all assumptions to perform an ANOVA test are satisfied. (a) State the model and its assumptions. (b) By using ANOVA, test for (i) the significance of interaction effects between cycle time and operator. Use a = 0.05. (ii) the significance of cycle time effects. Use a = 0.05. (iii) the significance of operator effects. Use a = 0.05.

Attractiveness of body types has been a large discussion relating to effects on youth and culture. Unhealthy levels of BMI are often associated with beauty. A researcher decided to study how young heterosexual adults body type preferences related to BMI. Participants were asked to use a computer program to design their desired partner. The program then calculated the BMI of the designed partners. The table summarizes the results based on a SRS of 35 men and 48 women. BMI designed by men n=35 x-bar=18.850 stdev=1.750 SE Mean 0.277 BMI designed by women n=48 x-bar=25.860 stdev=4.215 SE Mean 0.625 Use this information to conduct a test to decide if male and/or female body type preferences are associated with healthy BMI measurements. You should have two complete tests here. You may assume the populations are normally distributed.
A substance abuse counselor wants to demonstrate the effect of situational stress on alcohol cravings. He recruits two groups of men who are similar in respect to history of alcohol use and demographic variables. He divides them in to two groups. In one group(n=11), the men are exposed to a stressful situation and then asked to complete a measure rating their alcohol cravings on a scale from 0-10, where 0 representsno cravings and 10 represents intense cravings. In the second group (n=10), the men are exposed to a neutral situation and asked to complete the same measure. What test and graph should I create to find out if a stressful situation result in more intense alcohol cravings than a non-stressful situation?
Rhino viruses typically cause common colds. In a test of the effectiveness of echinacea, 42 of the 47 subjects treated with echinacea developed rhinovirus infections. In a placebo group, 89 of the 102 subjects developed rhinovirus infections. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that echinacea has an effect on rhinovirus infections. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

Four factors are thought to influence the taste of the dietary product: A - type of sweetener; B – fruit content; C – percentage fat matter; D - temperature. A full factorial experiment was conducted with these 4 factors. At each run in the design, samples of the dietary product were tested by panel of experts who rated the taste on a scale from 1 to 10, the response variable taken being the sum of individual ratings. The results are listed in the table below, in the standard order of runs. Generate the design for this experiment, analyse the results by producing main effects and interactions plots and discuss the most significant factors that can be used to find a formulation that maximises the total score.

Public relation companies conducted two surveys about deodorants. The first survey asked a random sample of 500 men about their use of a natural deodorant. A second survey asked the same questions to a random sample of 550 women. In these two studies, 68% of men and 44% of women stated they were dissatisfied with the effectiveness of natural deodorants. Use these results to answer the following questions about the proportion of men and women's satisfaction with natural deoderants. (Round to the nearest whole person as needed). What is the difference between the proportion of men and women? _____ (write as a decimal) The standard error for these two samples is ______ . (round to the nearest hundredth) Using a 99% confidence level, the lower limit is _____ and the upper limit is _____
Suppose you were presented with the results of a study comparing two different training methods for basketball athletes. You are told 32 athletes were randomly assigned to the two groups so that 16 were in the group A and 16 were in the group B. At the end of the session, the average scores (wins versus losses) of the two groups/teams were compared and a difference of 10% was observed ( the first team had 10% more wins than the second). The coach observer reports two- sample t-test shows this difference is statistically significant. How would you interpret these findings? What questions or concerns would you have? How might this type of study be improved? Hint: Consider the possibility that the test performed was not the appropriate one.
A recent study looked at the relationship between condom use and the spread of AIDS, by following heterosexual couples in which one partner was infected with HIV. The couples were classified by their condom use. Of the 98 couples who always used condoms, 4 partners became infected with HIV. Of the 67 couples who did not always use condoms, 11 partners became infected. Test whether the proportions of partners who became infected with HIV are different for each group, using a 5% level of significance. Give each of the following: 1) the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses; 2) the appropriate test; 3) the decision rule; 4) the calculation of the test statistic; and 5) your conclusion including a comparison to alpha or the critical value.

An experiment to determine the most effective way to teach safety principles applied four different teaching methods. Some employees were given programmed instruction booklets and worked through the course at their own pace. Other employees attended lectures. A third group watched a television presentation, and a fourth group was divided into small discussion groups. A high of 10 was possible. A sample of five tests was selected from each group. The test grade results were: Sample Number Programmed Instruction Lecture TV Group Discussion 1 6 8 7 8 2 7 5 9 5 3 6 8 6 6 4 5 6 8 6 5 6 8 5 5 At the 0.01 level, what is the critical value?

A clinical trial is conducted to compare a new pain re- liever for arthritis to a placebo. Participants are randomly assigned to receive the new medication or a placebo, and the outcome is pain relief within 30 minutes. The data are shown in Table 7–8. Is there a significant difference in the proportions of patients reporting pain relief? Run the test at a 5% level of significance.
