3. A crossover trial is planned to evaluate the impact of an educational intervention program to
reduce alcohol consumption in patients determined to be at risk for alcohol problems. The pla
is to measure alcohol consumption (the number of drinks on a typical drinking day) before the
intervention and then again after participants complete the educational intervention program
How many articipantswouldberequiredtoen urethata95%,confidencen terval for the mean-
difference in the number of drinks is within 2 drinks of the true mean difference? Assume that
the standard deviation of the difference in the mean number of drinks is 6.7 drinks.

What is an experiment?

A hospital conducted a study of the waiting time in its emergency room. The hospital has a main campus and three satellite locations. Management had a business objective of reducing waiting time for emergency room cases that did not require immediate attention. To study this, a random sample of 15 emergency room cases that did not require immediate attention at each location was selected on a particular day, and the waiting times (measured from check into when the patient was called into the clinic area) were collected and stored in the table.
At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of a difference in the mean waiting times in
the four locations?

According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is
0.36.
Suppose a random sample of
110
traffic fatalities in a certain region results in
49
that involved a positive BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the
α=0.05
level of significance?
