An international study by Unilever reveals that33% of consumers are choosing to buy from brands they believe aredoing social or environmental good. Suppose you select a sample of 100 consumers.a. What is the probability that in the samnple fewer than 30% arechoosing to buy from brands they believe are doing social orenvironmental good?b. What is the probability that in the sample between 28% and38% are choosing to buy from brands they believe are doingsocial or environmental good?c. What is the probability that in the sample more than 38% arechoosing to buy from brands they believe are doing social orenvironmental good?d. If a sample of 400 is taken, how does this change your answersto (a) through (c)?

6.6.4 To study the difference in drug therapy adherence among subjects with depression who received usual care and those who received care in a collaborative care model was the goal of a study conducted by Finley et al. (A-21). The collaborative care model emphasized the role of clinical pharmacists in providing drug therapy management and treatment follow-up. Of the 50 subjects receiving usual care, 24 adhered to the prescribed drug regimen, while 50 out of 75 subjects in the collaborative care model adhered to the drug regimen. Construct a 90 percent confidence interval for the difference in adherence proportions for the populations of subjects represented by these two samples.

To examine adolescent substance abuse, Li, Pentz, and Chou (2002) surveyed 1,807 middle school students from 57 schools. The results showed that a greater risk of adolescent substance abuse was associated with increasing numbers of parents and friends who were sub- stance abusers. However, friends’ use did not affect adolescent substance abuse when parents were nonusers. Is this an example of a research design?
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.

Birthweight In 2003 the Journal of the AmericanMedical Association reported a study examining thepossible impact of air pollution caused by the 9/11 attack New York’s World Trade Center on the weight ofbabies. Researchers found that 8% of 182 babies born tomothers who were exposed to heavy doses of soot andash on September 11 were classified as having low birthweight. Only 4% of 2300 babies born in another NewYork City hospital whose mothers had not been near thesite of the disaster were similarly classified. Does thisindicate a possibility that air pollution might be linked toa significantly higher proportion of low-weight babies?a) Was this an experiment? Explain. b) Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclu-sion in context. c) If you concluded there is a difference, estimate thatdifference with a confidence interval and interpret thatinterval in context.

Do well-rounded people get fewer colds? A study on the Chronicle of Higher Education was conducted by scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Virginia. They found that people who have only a few social outlets get more colds than those who are involved in a variety of social activities. Suppose that of the 276 healthy men and women tested, n1=96 had only a few social outlets and n2=105 were busy with six or more activities. When these people were exposed to a cold virus, the following results were observed: Construct a 99% confidence interval for the difference in the two population proportions.
The director of an obesity clinic in a large northwestern city believes that drinking soft drinks contribute to obesity in children. To determine whether a relationship exists between these two variables, she conducts the following pilot study. Eight- 12-year-old male volunteers are randomly selected from children attending a local junior high school. Parents of the children are asked to monitor the number of soft drinks consumed by their child over a one week period. The children are weighed at the end of the week and their weights converted into body mass index (BMI) values. The BMI is a common index used to measure obesity and takes into account both height and weight. An individual is considered obese if they have a BMI value 30. The following data or collected: child. # of soft drinks consumed BMI 1 3 20 2 1 18 3…
