A study is designed to test whether there is a difference in mean daily calcium intake in adults with normal bone density, adults with osteopenia (a low bone density which may lead to osteoporosis) and adults with osteoporosis. Adults 60 years of age with normal bone density, osteopenia and osteoporosis are selected at random from hospital records and invited to participate in the study. Each participant's daily calcium intake is measured based on reported food intake and supplements. The data are shown below.
Is there a statistically significant difference in mean calcium intake in patients with normal bone density as compared to patients with osteopenia and osteoporosis?
Researchers have observed that high school students who watched educational television programs as young children tend to have higher grades than their peers who did not watch educational television. Is this an observational study or a controlled experiment? Explain why.
Studies have suggested that alcohol abuse and disorders are found to be more prevalent during early adulthood than in any other age group, with about 9% of young adults (age 18 to 29 years) meeting the criteria to be labeled as alcoholic. In addition, surveys have shown that college students tend to drink more than their peers who do not attend college.
You want to test to see if there are differences in excessive alcohol use in young adults that attend college versus those who do not, so you surveyed 405 young adults, age 19 to 22, about their alcohol use by asking the question, "Have you consumed alcohol to the point of intoxication at least once within the past month?" with the following results.

- What is an experiment?arrow_forwardOne study of cell phones and the risk of brain cancer looked at a group of 469 people who have brain cancer. The investigators then asked about the use of cell phones. Result: “Our data suggest that the use of hand- held cellular phones is not associated with risk of brain cancer. B . Based on this study, can you determine that cellular use does not CAUSE brain cancer? Why or why not?arrow_forwardA research team is interested in determining if there is a relationship between death anxiety and religiosity. Subjects completed a death anxiety scale (high score = high anxiety) and also completed a checklist designed to measure an individual's degree of religiosity (belief in a particular religion, regular attendance at religious services, number of times per week they regularly pray, etc.) (high score = greater religiosity).

- It would not be ethical to assign one group of children to smoke in order to study the effect. so, in lieu of this type of direct experimentation other forms of evidence are commonly accepted. Describe two of the common types of evidence that can be used to establish a cause-effect relationship when direct experimentation is not possible.arrow_forwardWhat are the requirements for an experiment to be able to show that changes in one variable cause changes in another?arrow_forwardThe Human Resources Department is studying absenteeism with employees. They have noticed an unacceptable level of absenteeism that is believed to be related to the general health of the employees. Twelve months ago, a fitness program for employees was started at the company. To evaluate the program, a random sample of eight participants were studied before the fitness program began and the same eight participants were studied twelve months later. The Human Resources Department believes the number of absences should change over the twelve months. Before After Difference Employee 1. What is dbar? 2. What is tcrit? 3. What is at? 4.

- Jachuck et al. (1982) report on a drug designed to reduce hypertension (high blood pressure). Such hypotensive drugs are frequently effective but are also linked to side effects like irritability and a decline in energy. Seventy-five patients with mild hypertension were put on hypotensive drugs and their progress was monitored by doctors and spouses. When asked to rate the treated patients as improved, worse, or unchanged, the doctors rated all 75 patients as "improved." Meanwhile, the spouses rated 74 of the 75 patients as "worse." Why might spouses and doctors differ in their opinion about the effect of going on blood pressure medication? Make a one-sentence argument for each of the following two viewpoints The doctors' opinions should be used to determine how beneficial blood pressure medication is for the purposes of CEA The spouses' opinions should be used to determine how beneficial blood pressure medication is for the purposes of CEA.arrow_forwardThe table below refers to a case control study on the association between sulfones and streptomycin drugs in the treatment of leprosy. Subjects were sampled based on their clinical change to treatment and then asked whether they had a high or low degree of infiltration. The degree of infiltration measures a type of skin damage. We will use clinical change response scores {-1, 0, 1, 2, 3}. The question of interest is whether degree of infiltration is associated with clinical change. (a) Compute the sample proportions of having a high degree of infiltration for each clinical change group? What type of variable is Clinical Change? (B)Conduct a Cochran-Armitage trend test at the 5% significance level to determine whether there is an association between degree of infiltration and clinical change. (C)Now, ignore the fact that clinical change is an ordinal variable. Conduct a chi-squared test for association between degree of infiltration and clinical change at the 5% significance…arrow_forwardNoonan syndrome is a genetic condition that can affect the heart, growth, blood clotting, and mental and physical development. Noonan et al. examined the stature of men and woman with Noonan syndrome. The study contained 29 male and 44 female adults. One of the cut-off values used to assess stature was the third percentile of adult height. Eleven of the males fell below the third percentile of adult height, while 24 of the females fell below the third percentile of female adult height. Does this study provide sufficient evidence for us to conclude that among subjects with Noonan syndrome, females are more likely than males to fall below the respective third percentile of adult height? Hint: Use the pooled proportions z-test with a = 0.05.arrow_forward
- Hepatitis B and Pancreatic Cancer. The article “Study Links Hepatitis B and Cancer of Pancreas” by D. Grady, appeared in the September 29, 2008 issue of the NewYork Times. It reported that, for the first time, a study showed that people with pancreatic cancer are more likely than those without the disease to have been infected with the hepatitis B virus. The study by M. Hassan et al., titled “Association Between Hepatitis B Virus and Pancreatic Cancer” (Journal of Clinical Oncology, Vol. 26, No. 28, pp. 4557–4562) compared 476 people who had pancreatic cancer with 879 healthy control subjects. All were tested to see whether they had ever been infected with the viruses that cause hepatitis B or hepatitis C. The results were that no connection was found to hepatitis C, but the cancer patients were twice as likely as the healthy subjects to have had hepatitis B. The researchers noted, however, that “. . . while the study showed an association, it did not prove cause and effect.

Subjects are randomly selected from a population and divided into an experimental group that is asked to leave their phones in the front of the room and a control group that are not asked to leave their cell phones at the front of the room. Subjects are left alone for 10 minutes and then asked to take a survey designed to measure quality of interactions they had with others in the experiment.
