A researcher wanted to determine whether some pain medications produce more or less dizziness than others. The results from his study are shown below in the table. Apply a test for homogeneity to determine whether the proportion of people taking a pain medication within each treatment group that experience dizziness are the same at the α=0.01 level of significance.

To determine whether a relationship exists between these two variables, she conducts the following pilot study. Eight- 12-year-old male volunteers are randomly selected from children attending a local junior high school. Parents of the children are asked to monitor the number of soft drinks consumed by their child over a one week period. The children are weighed at the end of the week and their weights converted into body mass index (BMI) values. The BMI is a common index used to measure obesity and takes into account both height and weight. An individual is considered obese if they have a BMI value 30. The following data or collected: child. # of soft drinks consumed BMI 1 3 20 2 1 18 3…arrow_forwardA researcher conducts an independent-measures study examining the effectiveness of a group exercise program at an assisted living facility for elderly adults. One group of residents is selected to participate in the program, and a second group serves as a control. After 6 weeks, the researcher records a combined score measuring balance and strength for each individual. The data are as follows: Control Exercise n = 10n = 15 M = 12 M = 15.5 SS = 120.5 SS = 190.0 a. Does the exercise program have a significant effect? Use an alpha level of .05, two tails. b.

- An amusement park studied methods for decreasing the waiting time (minutes) for rides by loading and unloading riders more efficiently. Two alternative loading/unloading methods have been proposed. To account for pot differences due to the type of ride and the possible interaction between the method of loading and unloading and the type of ride, a factorial experiment was designed. Use the following data to test for any significant effect loading and unloading method, the type of ride, and interaction. Use a = 0.05. Factor A is method of loading and unloading; Factor B is the type of ride.
