Peak force (N) on the hand was measured just prior to impact and just after impact on a backhand drive for six advanced tennis players. The resulting data, from the paper “Forces on the Hand in the Tennis One-Handed Backhand” (International Journal of Sport Biomechanics [1991]: 282–292), are given in the accompanying table.

Suppose the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) wants to examine the safety of compact cars, midsize cars, and full-size cars. It collects a sample of three for each of the treatments (cars types). Using the hypothetical data provided below, run your analyses in R to test whether the mean pressure applied to the driver’s head during a crash test is equal for each types of car (higher pressure = less safe).

What kind of statistical analysis do you need to use and why?
State the null and alternative hypotheses.
Check your assumptions. Include screenshots of your R output and explain why each of them are or are not met.
Using R, run your analysis and include a screenshot.
Using R, run post-hoc tests and include a screenshot.
What do you conclude about the null hypothesis?
What does each of your p-values tell you? Are there differences and in which comparisons?…
Ankle Brachial Index. The ankle brachial index (ABI) compares the blood pressure of a patient’s arm to the blood pressure of the patient’s leg. The ABI can be an indicator of different diseases, including arterial diseases. A healthy (or normal) ABI is 0.9 or greater. In a study by M. McDermott et al. titled “Sex Differences in Peripheral Arterial Disease: Leg Symptoms and Physical Functioning” (Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, Vol. 51, No. 2, pp. 222–228), the researchers obtained the ABI of 187 women with peripheral arterial disease. The results were a mean ABI of 0.64 with a standard deviation of 0.15. At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that, on average, women with peripheral arterial disease have an unhealthy ABI?
Do wearable devices that monitor diet and physical activity
help people lose weight? Researchers had 237 subjects who
were already involved in a program of diet and exercise use
wearable technology for 24 months. They measured their
weight (in kilograms) before using the technology and 24
months after using the technology.
The 237 differences in weight (weight after 24 months
minus weight before using the wearable technology) had
x = -3.5 and s = 7.8.
Let u be the mean weight difference.
