1. Researchers wanted to compare the efficacy of non-surgical versus surgical methods for curing cataracts. A random sample of 20 Americans with a cataract was obtained. These Americans had Extracapsular surgery performed to treat the cataract. Another random sample of 20 Americans with a cataract was obtained. These Americans used cataract eye drops to treat the cataract. Is this an example of independent or dependent samples? 2. Researchers are interested in determining the success of "non-surgical" methods for curing cata- racts. A random sample of 20 Americans was obtained that have a cataract in one eye. The subjects were paired based on the severity of the cataract. Of the pairs, one used herbs to treat the cataracts and the other used eye drops. Is this an example of independent or dependent samples?
