Banning controversial sports team sponsors. Refer to the Journal of Marketing Research (October. 2015) study of the impact of banning a controversial sponsor on a sports team’s success, Exercise 9.34 (p. 522). Recall that markets for English soccer clubs were classified as one of four types: (1) banned alcohol sponsors but now have other sponsors, (2) banned alcohol sponsors and now have no other sponsors. (3) did not ban alcohol sponsors but now have other sponsors, and (4) did not ban alcohol sponsors and now have no other sponsors. To assess the impact of an alcohol ban in a market, the researchers computed the matching value loss (MVL) for each market and treated this as the dependent variable in the analysis. The data (simulated from information provided in the study) are saved in the file. Consider a model for mean MVL as a
- a. Give the equation of the model for E(MVL). Use market type “no ban/no other” as the base level for the qualitative independent variable.
- b. Fit the model, part a, to the data. Give the least squares prediction equation.
- c. Provide a practical interpretation of each of the estimated β’s in the model.
- d. Conduct the global F-test for the model using α = .05. What inference can you make about the
mean MVL values for the four markets? - e. The sample mean MVL values for the four markets were 8.52, 8.55, 6.63, and 6.38, respectively. Show how to find these sample means using only the p estimates obtained in part b.

- A development corporation purchased land that will be the site of a new luxury condominium complex. Management is considering a six month market research study designed to learn more about potential market acceptance of the condominium project. Management anticipates that, if conducted, the market research study will provide one of the following two results. 1. Favorable report (F): A significant number of the individuals contacted express interest in purchasing a condominium. 2. Unfavorable report (U): Very few of the individuals contacted express interest in purchasing a condo- minium. After deciding whether to conduct the market research study, they have the following two decision alternatives. d1 = a small complex with 30 condominiumsd2 = a medium complex with 60 condominiumsFollowing this, a chance event concerning the demand for the condominiums has two states of nature. s1 = strong demand for the condominiumss2 = weak demand for the condominiumsThe payoffs, probabilities, and…arrow_forwardWhich of the independent variables retains the strongest association with the number of children a respondent has when all other variables in the model are controlled?

- In a recent study, young adults (18-25 years) were randomly assigned to one of two treatments to increase seat belt use. The intervention group received Safe Vehicle Engagement (SAVE) intervention, a 6-week automated interactive text message program, including weekly seat belt use queries with feedback and goal support to increase seat belt use. The control group received similar queries but no additional feedback. The primary objective is to assess whether there is an association between treatment (SAVE vs control) and self-report of always using a seat belt over the past 2 weeks at the 6-week follow-up. Below is the 2x2 table of treatment and primary endpoint. Always wearing a seat belt Not always wearing a seat belt SAVE Intervention 34 48 Control 15 61 Questions: (1) Estimate an appropriate absolute measure of association and 95% confidence interval (CI) comparing participants who received SAVE intervention to those who received control treatment.

In all, 650 subjects took acetaminophen, and 44experienced some adverse symptom. Of the 347 subjects who took ibuprofen, 49 had an adverse symptom.

- In its January 25, 2012, issue, the Journal of the American Medical Association reported on the effects of overconsumption of low, normal, and high protein diets on weight gain, energy expenditure, and body composition. Researchers conducted a single blind, randomized controlled trial of 25 U.S. adults. The subjects were healthy, weight-stable, male and female volunteers, aged 18 to 35 years. All subjects consumed a weight-stabilizing diet for 13 to 25 days. Afterwards, the researchers randomly assigned participants to diets containing various percentages of energy from protein: 5% (low protein), 15% (normal protein), or 25% (high protein). The subjects were not aware of the specific protein level diet to which they were assigned. On these diets the researchers overfed the participants during the last 8 weeks of their 10 to 12 week stay in the inpatient metabolic unit. The goal was to investigate the effect of overconsumption of protein on weight gain, energy expenditure, and body…arrow_forwardA consumer advocacy group wanted to study whether different airline carriers differed in terms of their delayed flights. In particular, the researchers were interested in the relationship between p1, the proportion of Alpha Airlines flights that were delayed at least 15 minutes, and p2, the proportion of Beta Airlines flights that were delayed at least 15 minutes. A random sample of 1,000 Alpha flights and a separate random sample of 1,000 Beta flights found that 67 of the Alpha fights and 160 of the Beta flights were delayed at least 15 minutes. The conditions for inference were checked and verified. Does this set of samples provide strong evidence that Alpha Airlines has a smaller proportion of flights that are delayed at least 15 minutes than Beta Airlines, at the α = 0.05 significance level? Find the z-table here. A. The test statistic is z = –6.56 and the P-value ≈ 0. Since the P-value ≈ 0 < 0.05, there is not sufficient evidence that Alpha Airlines has fewer delayed…arrow_forwardIn a research to study the gender differences in receiving Lidocaine therapy in Acure Myocardial infarction (AMI) patients older than 75 years who have a history of hypertension and strokes, there were 81 patients in total (30 males and 51 females).

- Does posting calorie content for menu items affectpeople’s choices in fast-food restaurants? According to results obtained by Elbel, Gyamfi, and Kersh(2011), the answer is no. The researchers monitoredthe calorie content of food purchases for children andadolescents in four large fast-food chains before andafter mandatory labeling began in New York City. Although most of the adolescents reported noticing thecalorie labels, apparently the labels had no effect ontheir choices. Data similar to the results obtained showan average of M = 786 calories per meal with s =85 for n =100 children and adolescents before thelabeling, compared to an average of M = 772 calorieswith s = 91 for a similar sample of n = 100 after themandatory posting.a. Use a two-tailed test with a = .05 to determinewhether the mean number of calories after theposting is significantly different than before caloriecontent was posted.b.

Carson, M.S. McDonagh, et al., “Drug class review: Newer drugs for insomnia,” Oregon Health and Science University, 2008, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). Suppose a study of two drugs, Sonata and Ambien, was conducted and the resulting data are contained in a file titled Shuteye. The samples reflect an experiment in which individuals were randomly given the two brands of pills on separate evenings. Their time spent sleeping was recorded for each of the brands of sleeping pills. (A) Does the experiment seem to have dependent or independent samples? Explain your reasoning. (B) Do the data indicate that there is a statistical difference in the mean time spent sleeping for people using the two drugs? Test using alpha = 0.02.
