In a study of palatability of antibiotics for children, Doreen Matsui and her colleagues used a voluntary sample of healthy children to assess their reactions to the taste of four antibiotics. The children’s responses were measured on a 10-centimeter visual analog scale that incorporated the use of faces, from sad (low score) to happy (high score). The minimum and maximum scores were, respectively, 0 and 10. The data in the following table (simulated from the results given in Matsui’s report) were obtained when each of five children were asked to rate the taste of all four antibiotics.

- us. What does this suggest? Source: Pegna, Alan J. et al., "Discriminating Emotional Faces without Primary Visual Cortices Involves the Right Amygdala." Nature Neuroscience, 8(1), 2005. 28. Reproducibility Researchers looked at studies that were reported in newspapers with the goal of determining whether initial studies had results that could be reproduced. Reproducibility of results means that subsequent analysis confirms the conclusion of the original study. Primary studies are studies where the researchers come up with a research objective, clearly state the goals of the study and population, describe the research method, test the research hypotheses, and draw conclusions. (a) Among the 156 primary studies reported by newspapers, 76 had results that were validated by subsequent analysis. Does this suggest less than a majority of initial studies reported by newspapers have their results validated by subsequent analysis?

Subjects with a red background were asked to think of creative uses for a brick; other subjects with a blue background were given the same task. Responses were scored on a scale from 1 to 5 by a panel of judges and results from scores of creativity are given below. Higher scores correspond to more creativity. The researchers make the claim that “blue enhances performance on a creative task.” Red Background: n = 35, X bar = 3.39, s = .97 Blue Background: n = 36, X bar = 3.97, s = .63 Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that blue enhances performance on a creative task.

A case-control (or retrospective) study was conducted to investigate a relationship between the colors of helmets worn by motorcycle drivers and whether they are injured or killed in a crash. Results are given in the table below (based on data from “Motorcycle Rider Conspicuity and Crash Related Injury: Case-Control Study”, by Wells et al., BMJ USA, Vol. 4). 1. Test the claim that injuries are independent of helmet color, using chisq.test function in R at a 0.05 significance level. Please state the hypothesis, present a screenshot of the R output for this test, and provide your conclusion in the context of the problem. 2. Should motorcycle drivers choose helmets with a particular color? If so, which color appears best? Provide your justification.arrow_forward

Corporate sustainability refers to business practices designed CORSUS around social and environmental considerations. Refer to the Business and Society (March 2011) study on the sustainability behaviors of CPA corporations, Exercise 2.23 (p. 59). Recall that the level of support for corporate sustainability (measured on a quantitative scale ranging from 0 to 160 points) was obtained for each in a sample of 992 senior managers at CPA firms. Higher point values indicate a higher level of support for sustainability.

- At what age do babies learn to crawl? Does it take longer to learn in the winter when babies are often bundled in clothes that restrict their movement? Data were collected from parents who brought their babies into the University of Denver Infant Study Center to participate in one of a number of experiments between 1988 and 1991. Parents reported the birth month and the age at which their child was first able to creep or crawl a distance of four feet within one minute. The resulting data were grouped by month of birth. The data are for January, May, and September AverageBirth month crawling age SD nJanuary 29.84 7.08 32May 28.58 8.07 27September 33.83 6.93 38 Crawling age is given in weeks.

Atwood et al. (2012) measured whether the time taken to drink a beer was influenced by the shape of the glass in which it was served. Participants were given a 12 oz. of chilled lager and were told that they should drink it at their own pace while watching a nature documentary. The participants were randomly assigned to receive their beer in either a straight-sided glass or a curved, fluted glass. The data below are the total time in minutes to drink the glass of beer by the 19 women participants in the study.
