Peak force (N) on the hand was measured just prior to impact and just after impact on a backhand drive for six advanced tennis players. The resulting data, from the paper “Forces on the Hand in the Tennis One-Handed Backhand” (International Journal of Sport Biomechanics [1991]: 282–292), are given in the accompanying table.

Refer to laserjeans.xlsx to answer the questions below. These real data come from Ondogan, Z., Pamuk, O., Ondogan, E. N., & Ozguney, A. (2005). Improving the appearance of all textile products from clothing to home textile using laser technology. Optics and Laser Technology, 37, 631-637. Researchers sought to test the differences in tensile strength of jeans designed by hand versus those designed with lasers. 1. What type of measurement scale do each of the five variables use? 2. Create histograms for those that are continuous (interval or ratio). How would you describe the shape of these distributions? 3. A textile researcher wants to simplify the strength data by turning this continuous variable into an ordinal variable with 10 equal interval widths. Given that the lowest force resulting in a rip was 860 N, and the greatest force resulting in a rip was 1,450 N, what should the interval widths (also called bins or breaks) be? Fill in the second column of the…
Suppose the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) wants to examine the safety of compact cars, midsize cars, and full-size cars. It collects a sample of three for each of the treatments (cars types). Using the hypothetical data provided below, run your analyses in R to test whether the mean pressure applied to the driver’s head during a crash test is equal for each types of car (higher pressure = less safe).

Ankle Brachial Index. The ankle brachial index (ABI) compares the blood pressure of a patient’s arm to the blood pressure of the patient’s leg. The ABI can be an indicator of different diseases, including arterial diseases. A healthy (or normal) ABI is 0.9 or greater. In a study by M. McDermott et al. titled “Sex Differences in Peripheral Arterial Disease: Leg Symptoms and Physical Functioning” (Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, Vol. 51, No. 2, pp. 222–228), the researchers obtained the ABI of 187 women with peripheral arterial disease. The results were a mean ABI of 0.64 with a standard deviation of 0.15. At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that, on average, women with peripheral arterial disease have an unhealthy ABI?

- Do wearable devices that monitor diet and physical activity help people lose weight? Researchers had 237 subjects who were already involved in a program of diet and exercise use wearable technology for 24 months. They measured their weight (in kilograms) before using the technology and 24 months after using the technology. The 237 differences in weight (weight after 24 months minus weight before using the wearable technology) had x = -3.5 and s = 7.8. Let u be the mean weight difference. 41 John M.
