A clinical trial is planned to compare an experimental medication designed to lower blood pressure to a pla- cebo. Before starting the trial, a pilot study is conducted involving seven participants. The objective of the study is to assess how systolic blood pressure (SBP) changes over time if left untreated. SBP is measured at baseline and again 4 weeks later. Is there a statistically significant difference in SBP over time? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Baseline 120 145 130 160 152 143 126 Four weeks 122 142 135 158 155 140 130 how do I solve this in excel?
Apple, Inc. reported that "0.5% (0.005) of participants received irregular pulse notifications indicative of possible AFib" which is a dangerous heart condition that needs an immediate trip to the emergency room. To improve benefits of pulse notifications, it is important to identify the percentage of people receiving false notifications. A cardiologist is concerned that the percentage of people who actually have these types of irregular heartbeats is not accurate. The doctor randomly selected a simple random sample of 2315 adults who own Apple watches and asked if they have received one of these irregular heartbeat notifications. Nine of the respondents reported receiving such a notification. Does this evidence support the cardiologists claim that the percentage of people who receive notifications of irregular heartbeats is not 0.5% (0.005)? Can the conditions for the 1-proportion Z- test be met? No, normality cannot be met. Yes, all conditions are met. No, some part of the binomial…
According to the USDA, 46.2% of males between 20 and 39 years old consume the minimum daily requirement of calcium. After an aggressive “Got Milk?” campaign, the USDA conducts a survey of 48 randomly selected males between the ages of 20 and 39 and finds that 32 of them consume the recommended daily allowance of calcium. At the alpha=0.10 level, is there evidence to conclude that the percentage of males between the ages of 20 and 39 who consume the minimum recommended daily allowance of calcium has increased?
The general population of people with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) has a known average in regards to symptom severity. These scores are measured on the Brief Depression Inventory, which uses a 0-100 scale, with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity. Researchers at Stanford select a sample of volunteers who meet MDD criteria. That sample of people participate in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for a period of time, and their symptom severity is measured on the Brief Depression Inventory. The sample's average score is then compared to the general population average for people with MDD. Researchers find that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy appears to treat MDD fairly well! How did researchers most likely analyze their data given this experimental setup? O Single Sample T O Paired Samples T O Independent Samples T O ANOVA O Correlation
A randomized prospective study is conducted to estimate the association between taking a drug and remission for patients with a specific type of cancer. The estimated incidence rate ratio of remission for the treatment group relative to the placebo is 1.35. What is the proper interpretation of this value? An individual (from the same cancer population) who does not take the drug is 35% less likely to go into remission as compared to an individual who has taken the drug. O In a random sample of 1,000 persons from the same cancer population, there would be 350 more remissions if these 1,000 persons took the drug as compared to if they did not take the drug. O An individual (from the same cancer population) who takes the drug is 35% more likely to go into remission as compared to an individual who has not taken the drug.

According to a CCH Unscheduled Absence survey, 9% of small businesses use telecommuting of workers in an effort to reduce unscheduled absenteeism. This proportion compares to 6% for all businesses. Is there really a significant difference between small businesses and all businesses on this issue? Use these data and an alpha of .10 to test this question. Assume that there were 780 small businesses and 915 other businesses in this survey. Select one: a. p-value=0.04, thus we reject the Null hypothesis: the proportions are significantly different b. p-value=0.02, thus we reject the Null hypothesis: the proportions are significantly different c. p-value=0.04, thus we failed reject the Null hypothesis: the proportions are not significantly different d. p-value=0.02, thus we failed the Null hypothesis: the proportions are not significantly different
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 106 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 48 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 a= 0.01 level of significance? ....

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 not have the same attention span as those who ate generic kibble. The researcher used a single sample of 13 dogs, that took part in both treatment conditions. The mean was 7.0 and the SS for the difference in attention spans was 144. Alpha was set at the 0.05 level. Calculate the appropriate t to the nearest thousandths and include the +/- value in front of the t. For example, -5.369. What is the corresponding critical t? What decision can you make about the null hypothesis? Was there a treatment effect?
