An article in Plant Disease, "Effect of Nitrogen and Potassium Fertilizer Rates on Severity of Xanthomonas Blight of Syngonium Podophyllum" (1989, Vol. 73, No. 12, pp. 972-975) showed the effect of the variable nitrogen and potassium rates on the growth of "White Butterfly" and the mean percentage of disease. Data representative of that collected in this experiment is provided in the following table. Potassium (mg/pot/wk) Nitrogen (mg/pot/wk) 30 90 120 50 60.8 60.8 45.5 43.0 60.0 58.4 150 54.4 56.1 53.8 51.6 34.5 35.5 250 42.9 40.0 36.1 37.9 33.0 33.3 (a) Use the analysis of variance to test the appropriate hypotheses with a = 0.05. The effect of the variable nitrogen significant, the effect of the potassium rates significant, the interaction between the variable nitrogen and potassium rates significant. (b) Graphically analyze the residuals from this experiment. The residuals acceptable. (c) Estimate the appropriate variance component. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Source…
The table below is from a study called “The Epidemiology of Social Stress.” The researchers in this study conduct a series of statistical tests to shed light on the association between social status variables (IVs) and depression (DVs). The left-hand column shows the tests for mean depressive symptom scores (Number of symptoms reported [range:0-50], higher levels indicate higher number of reported depressive symptoms) by sex, age, marital status, and occupational prestige. The right-hand column shows the tests for prevalence of major depressive disorder (has major depression=1; does not have major depression=0), broken down by sex, age, marital status, and occupational prestige. Examine the table and answer questions  a)At alpha=.05, what can you conclude about the association between marital status and mean depressive symptom scores? Briefly summarize the findings, and provide a plausible, logical explanation (theory) for the observed association (or lack thereof).  b)At alpha =.001,…
Lead in Medicine Listed below are the lead concentrations (in μ g/g) measured in different Ayurveda medicines. Ayurveda is a traditional medical system commonly used in India. The lead concentrations listed here are from medicines manufactured in the United States (based on data from “Lead, Mercury, and Arsenic in US and Indian Manufactured Ayurvedic Medicines Sold via the Internet,” by Saper et al., Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 300, No. 8). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean lead concentration for all such medicines is less than 14 μ g/g.
