8.4.2 An article in Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy [“Arthroscopic Meniscal Repair with an
Absorbable Screw: Results and Surgical Technique” (2005, Vol.
13, pp. 273–279)] showed that only 25 out of 37 tears (67.6%)
located between 3 and 6 mm from the meniscus rim were healed.
a. Calculate a two-sided 95% confidence interval on the proportion of such tears that will heal.
b. Calculate a 95% lower confidence bound on the proportion of such tears that will heal.
8.4.3 An article in the Journal of the American Statistical Association [“Illustration of Bayesian Inference in Normal Data Models Using Gibbs Sampling” (1990, Vol. 85, pp.
972–985)] measured the weight of 30 rats under experiment controls. Suppose that 12 were underweight rats.
a. Calculate a 95% two-sided confidence interval on the true
proportion of rats that would show underweight from the
experiment.
b. Using the point estimate of p obtained from the preliminary sample, what sample size is needed to be 95%…
8.4.8 Use the data from Exercise 8.4.2 to compute the two-sided
Agresti-Coull CI on the proportion of tears that heal. Compare
and discuss the relationship of this interval to the one computed
in Exercise 8.4.2.
