Preventable chronic diseases are increasing rapidly in some regions, particularly diabetes. Shown below is a contingency table showing cross classification of educational attainment and diabetic state for a random sample of 1093 people in a region (HS is high school). At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that an association exists between educational level and diabetic state for the region?

The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations mandated that hospitals ban smoking by 1994. To study the effects of this ban on smoking behaviors, subjects were randomly selected from two different populations: those from hospitals with the ban and those from hospitals without the ban. Investigators were interested in determining if this smoking ban had any impact on the proportion of smokers employed at each hospital that then quit smoking. Among 843 smoking employees of hospitals with the smoking ban, 56 quit smoking during the study period. Among 703 smoking employees from workplaces without the smoking ban, 27 quit smoking during the study period. Below is the Stata output that was run to determine if there was a statistically significant difference between these two proportions at the α=0.05 level. A. What is the estimate of the proportion of smokers from the hospitals that implemented the ban that quit smoking (the blank labeled "C" in the above output)?…
A research group is interested in the association between vitamin E supplementation and a decreased risk for osteoporosis in a group of elderly women. The team randomly samples a group of women potentially enrolled in the study after a strict set of inclusion criteria have been met, and pairs each woman receiving the supplementation with two women receiving a placebo based on a number of characteristics such as BMI, education, and socio-economic status. The data compiled after 10 years of follow up were analyzed using conditional logistic regression. Which of the following methods to reduce confounding was not employed in the above scenario? Stratification Regression Restriction Matching
A case−control study was performed among 145 subjects with macular degeneration and 34 controls, all of whom were 70- to 79-year-old women. A genetic risk score was developed to help differentiate the cases from the controls. The risk score was categorized into six groups (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), with 6 being the highest risk and 1 being the lowest risk.The data in Table 10.48 were obtained relating the risk score to case/control status. taBlE 10.48 risk score cases controls 1 3 11 2 7 3 3 6 6 4 10 8 5 11 2 6 108 4 total 145 34 10.139 What test can be performed to study the asso- ciation between case/control status and risk score? Spe- cifically, we are interested in testing whether cases tend to have consistently higher risk scores or consistently lower risk scores than controls.
In a study of smokers who tried to quit smoking with nicotine patch therapy, 39 were smoking one year after the treatment, and 32 were not smoking one year after the treatment (based on data from. We want to use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that among smokers who try to quit with nicotine patch therapy, the majority are smoking a year after the treatment.
In ANOVA, what will be the conclusion when the means of the between groups vary from within groups? a.Accept the null hypothesis b.Reject the null hypothesis c.Conduct main effects d.Conduct interaction effects
A researcher was interested in whether there were differences in the level of activity in children who had been diagnosed with ADHA depending on whether they had received no treatment, were on Ritalin, or were in a behavior management program. He recruited 90 children with ADHD to participate, and randomly assigned each child to one of the three groups. The number of classroom disturbances during a 1 hour period was measured for each child. Which statistical test would be best to determine if there is a significant difference between groups? one-sample t-test dependent samples t-test independent samples t-test ANOVA

If 31 were killed in 2823 accidents for those not wearing seat belts and 16 were killed in 7765 accidents for those wearing seat belts, use a 0.05 significance level to determind if seat belts are effective in reducing fatalities. Give the test statistic z and your yes or no conclusion.
In a study of 90 patients on renal dialysis, Farhad Atassi (A-7) assessed oral home care practices. He collected data from 30 subjects who were in (1) dialysis for less than 1 year, (2) dialysis for 1 to 3 years, and (3) dialysis for more than 3 years. The following table shows plaque index scores for these subjects. A higher score indicates a greater amount of plaque. At the 5% level of significance test the claim that the plaque index scores differ between these groups.

In a study, 28 adults with mild periodontal disease are assessed before and 6 months after implementation of a dental-education program intended to promote better oral hygiene. After 6 months, periodontal status improved in 15 patients, declined in 8, and remained the same in 5. 9.1 Assess the impact of the program statistically (use a two-sided test). Suppose patients are graded on the degree of change in periodontal status on a 7-point scale, with +3 indicating the greatest improvement, 0 indicating no change, and −3 indicating the greatest decline. The data are given in Table 9.9. 9.2 What nonparametric test can be used to determine whether a significant change in periodontal status has occurred over time? 9.3 Implement the procedure in Problem 9.2 and report a p-value.
