3. It is hypothesized that there are fluctuations in norepinephrine (NE)levels which accompany fluctuations in affect with bipolar affectivedisorder (ranic-depressive illness). Thus, during depresive states,NE levels drop; during manic states, NE levels increase. To test thisrelationship. researchers measured the level of NE by measuring themetabolite 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG in micro gram per24 hour) in the patient's urine experiencing varying levels of mania/depression. Increased levels of MHPG are correlated with increasedmetabolism (thus higher levels) of central nervous systeni NE. Levelsof mania/depression were also recorded on a scale with a low scoreindicating increased mania and a high score increased depression.

Chocolate contains caffeine and an endogenous cannabinoid, as well as a chemical thatmodulates serotonin production; but is it an aphrodisiac, as the Mayans and Aztecs believed?Suppose you conduct a study which measures sex drive in a group of 20 women, after eating 8ounces of chocolate. Given that you have available data from the Kinsey Institute (IndianaUniversity) about the general sex drive for women of the same demographic as in your study, youdecide to compare your group to this population estimate.If testing hypotheses about the effects of chocolate on sex drive, it would be most appropriate tocalculate a ...1)Paired sampled t2)Z-test3)Independent-samples t-test 4)One- sample t-test

A sociologist wants to investigate the question, "Is there a relationship between texting during class and grade-point-average (GPA) among high school seniors in a large district?" Which study design is most appropriate? Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester, obtain each student’s GPA from the appropriate admissions and records office. Compare the GPA of students who routinely text during class to the GPA of students who do not text during class. Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester,…
Recently, the Shine research clinic published a report stating that the regular application of a very popular sunscreen lotion NoHelios might cause some forms of skin cancer. The manufacturer of NoHelios issued an energetic counterstatement asserting that the Shine clinic's conclusions were statistically inconsistent. Wellbeing pharmacy chain has been selling NoHelios lotion for a long time. The market research department of Wellbeing wants to see what is currently happening with NoHelios lotion demand. The members of a random sample of customers were asked about their willingness to use NoHelios before and after the publication of Shine clinic's report. The answers were provided in form of a score from 0 to 10 (higher score means more willingness). Results for five customers are shown in the following table. The "before" score is matched to the "after" score, and the difference should be calculated. Suppose that it is known that such differences have approximately bell-shaped…
After examining these data for all the jurisdictions, someone notes that certain areas have an unusually high “percent of 18-64 yr-olds with no high school diploma.” Based on this finding, this individual concludes that the high percentages are due to the rising population of immigrants in those areas. Further, the individual argues that any estimates of the associated “percent of low-income working families” in those areas should be recalculated after removing this sub-population from the data set, as they are causing the area to “look bad”. In addition to thinking critically, use the key rules about linear regression and extrapolation to write a statistically appropriate and socially responsible response to the individual’s conclusion and argument.
A dietitian wishes to see if a person’s cholesterol level will be changed if the diet is supplemented by a certain mineral. Four subjects were pre-tested, and they took the mineral supplement for a 6-week period. The results are shown in the table. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the population mean of cholesterol levels has been changed after six weeks at α=0.2α=0.2? Assume that the differences are from an approximately normally distributed population.

In a study conducted in the Science Department of Faculty of Science, Technology and Human Development in a University; the researcher examined the influence of the drug succinylcholine on the circulation levels of androgens in the blood. Blood samples from wild, free-ranging deer were obtained via the jugular vein immediately after an intramuscular injection of succinylcholine using darts and a capture gun. Deer were bled again approximately 30 minutes after the injection and then released. The level of androgens at time of capture and 30 minutes later, measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/ml), for 15 deers as in Table Q1. Assuming that the populations of androgen at time of injection and 30 minutes later are normally distributed:i) Find the average and standard deviation of this studyii)Determine the critical region of this problem.iii) Test at the 0.05 level of significance whether the androgen concentrations are altered after 30 minutes of restraint.
Does posting calorie content for menu items affectpeople’s choices in fast-food restaurants? According to results obtained by Elbel, Gyamfi, and Kersh(2011), the answer is no. The researchers monitoredthe calorie content of food purchases for children andadolescents in four large fast-food chains before andafter mandatory labeling began in New York City. Although most of the adolescents reported noticing thecalorie labels, apparently the labels had no effect ontheir choices. Data similar to the results obtained showan average of M = 786 calories per meal with s =85 for n =100 children and adolescents before thelabeling, compared to an average of M = 772 calorieswith s = 91 for a similar sample of n = 100 after themandatory posting.a. Use a two-tailed test with a = .05 to determinewhether the mean number of calories after theposting is significantly different than before caloriecontent was posted.b. Calculate r2to measure effect size for the mean difference.
An experiment to determine if a migraine medication decreases a person's average number of monthly migraines is performed on 400 people who report they have several migraines a month. Researchers randomly assigned 200 people to the treatment group and 200 people to the control group. After the study, the researchers determined that 48 of the subjects in the treatment group and 28 of the subjects in the control group average fewer migraines per month. The data from the two groups are resampled 150 times, and the table shows the distribution of the differences of the proportions for the reconfigured treatment and control groups.
