Studies originating in France about 15 years ago claimed that moderate red wine drinking (1-2 glasses per day) lowered rates of heart disease. a). What would be an ideal way to test this theory? What data would you collect, on how many people and from where?b). If you were forced to use observational data from some big data sets, what would your dependent (Y) and independent (X) variables be?c). Can you imagine any sampling or measurement problems inherent to your study? How might they hinder your analysis?d). Could red wine be a confounding variable for something else, explain?e). Let’s suppose that you found with more than 99% confidence that red wine reduced heart disease in France and the effect was substantial. Explain how the concepts of external validity and extrapolationmight or might not be concerns in applying the results to different groups in the United States?
