Shared leadership in airplane crews. Human Factors (March 2014) published a study that examined the effect of shared leadership by the cockpit and cabin crews of a commercial airplane. Simulated flights were taken by 84 six-person crews, where each crew consisted of a two-person cockpit (captain and first officer) and a four-person cabin team (three flight attendants and a purser.) During the simulation, smoke appeared in the cabin and the reactions of the crew were monitored for teamwork. Each crew was rated as working either successfully or unsuccessfully as a team. Also, each individual member was evaluated for leadership (measured as number of leadership
- a. Consider the data for captains. Interpret the p-value for testing (at α = .05) whether the mean leadership values for captains from successful and unsuccessful teams differ.
- b. Consider the data for flight attendants. Interpret the p-value for testing (at α = .05) whether the mean leadership values for flight attendants from successful and unsuccessful teams differ.

A U.S. study published in The American Journal of Preventive Medicine compared state-level prevalence of firearm ownership in 2002 with state-level rates of firearm assault and firearm robbery in the subsequent year. The investigators found a positive association - meaning that states with higher prevalence of firearm ownership also tended to be the states with higher rates of firearm assault.
Which design best describes this study?
a)Observational cohort study
b)Randomized trial
c)Case-control study
d)Ecological study

Deforestation is a serious problem throughout much of India. An article discusses the social forces that influence forest management policies in three Indian states: Haryana, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh. The forest quality in Haryana is somewhat degraded, in Bihar it is very degraded, and in Uttar Pradesh it is well-stocked. In order to study the relationship between educational levels and attitudes toward forest management, random samples of adults in each of these states were surveyed and their educational levels were ascertained. The numbers of adults at each of several educational levels were recorded. The data are presented in the following table (see image).
A.Find the P-value
B.State a conclusion. Can you conclude that the educational levels differ among the three states?

- What is an experiment?arrow_forwardIn studies examining the effect of humor on interpersonal attractions, McGee and Shevlin (2009) found that an individual’s sense of humor had a significant effect on how the individual was perceived by others. In one part of the study, female college students were given brief descriptions of a potential romantic partner. The fictitious male was described positively as being single and ambitious and having good job prospects. For one group of participants, the description also said that he had a great sense of humor. For another group, it said that he has no sense of humor. After reading the description, each participant was asked to rate the attractiveness of the man on a seven-point scale from 1 (very unattractive) to 7 (very attractive). A score of 4 indicates a neutral rating. The females who read the “great sense of humor” description gave the potential partner an average attractiveness score of M = 4.53 with a standard deviation of s = 1.04.

Each subject was assigned randomly either to the usual care or to the usual care plus counseling, and their smoking status (still smoking or quit smoking) was observed after 3 months. The percentage who had quit smoking was higher for the group receiving counseling. (a) Identify the response variable and the explanatory variable.

- In the book Business Research Methods (5th ed.), Donald R. Cooper and C. William Emory discuss studying the relationship between on-the-job accidents and smoking. Cooper and Emory describe the study as follows: Suppose a manager implementing a smoke-free workplace policy is interested in whether smoking affects worker accidents. Since the company has complete reports of on-the-job accidents, she draws a sample of names of workers who were involved in accidents during the last year. A similar sample from among workers who had no reported accidents in the last year is drawn. She interviews members of both groups to determine if they are smokers or not. The sample results are given in the following table.

A 2003 American Journal of Health Education study investigated the effects of cell phone use on reaction time.

Those in the control group participated in the experiment with no distractions, whereas those in the cell phone group had access to text documents on a cell phone. Participants in each group were then asked to take a computerized reaction time test. Researchers then recorded each subject's reaction time in seconds. The table shows the results of the experiment.
