Textbook Question
Chapter 12.12, Problem 12.128ACI
Reality TV and cosmetic surgery. Refer to the Body Image: An International Journal of Research (March 2010) study of the influence of reality TV shows on one's desire to undergo cosmetic surgery, Exercise 12.17 (p. 701). Simulated data for the study are saved in the file. In Exercise 12.17, you fit the first-order model,
E(y)=β0+ β1x1+ β2x2+ β3x3+ β4x4, where y = desire to have cosmetic surgery , x1 is a dummy variable for gender, x2 = level of self-esteem, x3 = level of body satisfaction, and x4 = impression of reality TV.
- a. Check the data for multicollinearity. If you detect multicollinearity, what modifications to the model do you recommend?
- b. Conduct a complete residual analysis for the model. Do you detect any violations of the assumptions? If so, what modifications to the model do you recommend?

In a typical multiple linear regression model where x1 and x2 are non-random
regressors, the expected value of the response variable y given x1 and x2 is denoted
by E(y | 2,, X2). Build a multiple linear regression model for E (y | *,, *2) such that the
value of E(y | x1, X2) may change as the value of x2 changes but the change in the
value of E(y | X1, X2) may differ in the value of x1 . How can such a potential difference
be tested and estimated statistically?
An article in Biotechnology Progress [“Optimization of Conditions for Bacteriocin Extraction in PEG/Salt Aqueous Two-Phase Systems Using Statistical Experimental Designs” (2001, Vol. 17, pp. 366–368)] reported an experiment to investigate and optimize the extraction of nisin in aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS). Nisin recovery was the dependent variable (y). The two regressor variables were the concentration (%) of PEG 4000 (indicated as x1) and the concentration (%) of Na2SO4 (indicated as x2). The data is shown below.
a) Find the fit parameters of the proposed model.
b) Establish, by means of a hypothesis test, if the regression is significant.
c) State, if the regression coefficients are significant.
d) Evaluate R2 as well as R_adjusted^2.
e) Construct and analyze the residual plot.
The accompanying data file contains 40 observations on the response variable y along with the predictor variables x1 and x2. Use the holdout method to compare the predictability of the linear model with the exponential model using the first 30 observations for training and the remaining 10 observations for validation.

Cotinine is a metabolite of nicotine, meaning that when nicotine is absorbed by the body, cotinine is produced. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that nonsmokers exposed to tobacco smoke have a higher mean cotinine level than nonsmokers not exposed to tobacco smoke.

In the study, published as “An Evaluation of Physical Fitness Parameters for Graduate Students” (Journal of American College Health, Vol. 51, No. 1, pp. 32–37), a sample of 27 female graduate physical-therapy students had a mean of 22.46 percent body fat. a.

- Researchers interested in lead exposure due to car exhaust sampled the blood of 52 police officers subjected to constant inhalation of automobile exhaust fumes while working traffic enforcement in a primarily urban environment. The blood samples of these officers had an average lead concentration of 124.32 µg/l and a SD of 37.74 µg/l; a previous study of individuals from a nearby suburb, with no history of exposure, found an average blood level concentration of 35 µg/l. Test the hypothesis that the downtown police officers have a higher lead exposure than the group in the previous study. Interpret your results in context. Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for the average blood concentration level of police officers contain 35 µg/l?
