n a recent submission to a Joint Select Committee of Parliament, the National Consumers' League said “In reality, cow’s milk especially processed cow’s milk, has been linked to a variety of health problems, including: mucous production, haemoglobin loss, childhood diabetes, heart disease, arteriosclerosis, arthritis, kidney stones, mood swings, depression, irritability, allergies.” Researchers know this to be true, though the Committee rejected the submission. Suppose that 34% of the population has mood swings, allergies, irritability and depression (MAID) and is known to consume dairy products. Also, 80% of the populace consumes dairy products. Suppose a randomly chosen dairy products user is tested, what is the probability this person has MAID? Select one:

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

Based on a survey of 12,344 U.S. college students and 6,729 Canadian college students, Kuo, Adlaf, Lee, Gliksman, Demers, and Wechsler (2002) report that alcohol use is more common among Canadian than U.S. students, but heavy drinking (five or more drinks in a row for males, four or more for females) is significantly higher among U.S. students than Canadian students. Is this an example of a survey research design?

In a study of whether taking a garlic supplement reduces the risk of getting a cold, participants were assigned to either a garlic supplement group or to a group that did not take a garlic supplement.† Based on the study, it was concluded that the proportion of people taking a garlic supplement who get a cold is lower than the proportion of those not taking a garlic supplement who get a cold. Do you think that the study was conducted in a reasonable way? What additional information would you want in order to evaluate this study? (Select all that apply.) A) whether the patients knew which treatment they were receiving B) whether the patients were randomly assigned to the treatments C) whether the patient's last name started with A through M D) whether the patient's cold lasted more than a week E) whether the experiment was conducted on a sufficient number of patients so that the differences observed could not be attributed to chance
