We have previously described Data Set LEAD.DAT (at www.cengagebrain.com), in which children were classified according to blood-lead level in 1972 and 1973 by the variable lead_grp, where 1 = blood-lead level < 40 μg/100 mL in both 1972 and 1973, 2 = blood-lead level ≥ 40 μg/100 mL in 1973, 3 = blood-lead level ≥ 40 μg/100 mL in 1972 but < 40 μg/100 mL in 1973. Answer Problem 6.67 for full-scale IQ.

- Find the mean hourly cost when the cell phone described above is used for 240 minutes.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is not statistically variable? Please choose one: a. A, B system blood group in humans b. Students' birth cities c. Euler's coefficient D. Relative system grades of students to. Height in humansarrow_forwardA study examined the link between sodium intake and blood pressure inchildren and adolescents between the ages of 8 and 18. The mean systolicblood pressure (SBP) was 112.8 mm Hg among the 636 study participants whowere overweight or obese and consumed high levels of sodium. Based on thisdata the researchers need to decide if they believe that the mean systolicblood pressure for the group was higher than for other groups. a. What would be a Type I error in this context? Your answer shouldconsist of both the researchers’ decision and what the reality is. b. What would be a Type II error in this context? Your answer shouldconsist of both the researchers’ decision and what the reality is.arrow_forward
- A researcher is exploring the relationship of academic performance of students in an online class to several factors listed below. The digital literacy scores were measured using a digital literacy test. The speed of internet connection is measured in megabyte per second (mbps). Family stress is measured using a 10-point scale test. A higher number means higher stress. The table shows the factors affecting academic performance of students in an online class. What is the value of the correlation between Academic Performance and Digital Literacy? * Speed of Digital Literacy Score Family Stress Academic Internet Connection performance Score ID (mbps) 1 87 91 3. 4 86 89 9 2 3 82 80 7 76 77 10 8. 4 85 91 12 93 89 7 83 80 29 6. 84 81 30 8 9 88 86 15 4 10 76 85 22 10 r = 0.6307 r= -0.6307 O r= -0.3607 r = 0.3607arrow_forwardPLEASE ANSWER ASAP: A case-control study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between physical activity and coronary heart disease (CHD) in men. A total of 406 men newly diagnosed with CHD were included together with 406 men of similar ages who did not have CHD. The risk of CHD (measured by the OR) was higher among men who were inactive or only moderately active (collectively called ‘inactive’) than among those who were physically active: (See attached image) Odds ratio for inactive men compared to active men= (299 x 136)/(270 x 107)=1.41Suppose there is no misclassification in these data.What would the observed OR have been... 1. If 20% of all the inactive men had been misclassified as active? 2. If 10 % of inactive cases had been misclassified as active?arrow_forward
