Chapter 9.4, Problem 9.59ACI
A new method of evaluating health care research reports. When evaluating research reports in health care, a popular tool is the Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR). AMSTAR, which incorporates 11 items (questions), has been widely accepted by professional health associations. A group of dental researchers has revised the assessment tool and named it R-AMSTAR (The Open Dentistry Journal, Vol. 4, 2010). The revised assessment tool was validated on five systematic reviews (named R1, R2, R3, R4. and R5) on rheumatoid arthritis. For each review, scores on the 11 R-AMSTAR items (all measured on a 4-point scale) were obtained. The data are shown in the table at the bottom of the page.
- a. One goal of the study was to compare the mean item scores of the five reviews. Set up the null and alternative hypotheses for this test.
- b. Examine the data in the table and explain why a randomized block ANOVA is appropriate to apply.
- c. The Minitab output for a randomized block ANOVA of the data (with Review as treatments and Item as blocks) appears below. Interpret the p-values of the tests shown.
- d. The Minitab printout also reports the results of a Tukey multiple comparison analysis of the five Review means. Which pairs of means are significantly different? Do these results agree with your conclusion in part c?
- e. The experimentwise error rate used in the analysis of part d is .05. Interpret this value.

In the COVID-19 data set, there are several questions that participants answer about the reactions of their government to the pandemic, as well as questions about their own well-being, in terms of measures of distress, such as anxiety and depression. This data was collected quite early in the pandemic, near the beginning of the first wave in late March.
One might ask whether how one viewed their government might affect one's concerns about the health of their family and themselves. What type of procedure might you use to see whether there was an association between attitudes towards governtment and worries about health?

However, they are still concerned about service. Recently, a group of four carriers hired Brunner Marketing Research Inc. to survey passengers regarding their level of satisfaction with a recent flight. The survey included questions on ticketing, boarding, in-flight service, baggage handling, pilot communication, and so forth. Twenty-five questions offered a range of possible answers: excellent, good, fair, or poor. A response of excellent was given a score of 4, good a 3, fair a 2, and poor a 1. These responses were then totaled, so the total score was an indication of the satisfaction with the flight. The greater the score, the higher the level of satisfaction with the service. The highest possible score was 100. Brunner randomly selected and surveyed…arrow_forward

- To determine a target audience for a new email package, a computer company surveyed a large random sample of potential customers, asking each whether he/she uses email on a regular basis. (The company considered "a regular basis" to be at least three times a week.) The data, as summarized in the contingency table below, were classified according to two variables: the age of the respondent ("under 18", "18-35", "36-54", "55+") and regularity of email use ("on a regular basis" or "not on a regular basis"). Each cell of the table contains three numbers: the first number is the observed cell frequency (fO); the second number is the expected cell frequency (fE) under the assumption that there is no dependence between age and regularity of email use and the third number is the following value.arrow_forwardTo determine a target audience for a new email package, a computer company surveyed a large random sample of potential customers, asking each whether he/she uses email on a regular basis.
