Chapter 9.4, Problem 9.63ACA
Anticorrosive behavior of steel coated with epoxy. Organic coatings that use epoxy resins are widely used for protecting steel and metal against weathering and corrosion. Researchers at National Technical University (Athens. Greece) examined the steel anticorrosive behavior of different epoxy coatings formulated with zinc pigments in an attempt to find the epoxy coating with the best corrosion inhibition (Pigment & Resin Technology, Vo. 32, 2003). The experimental units were flat rectangular panels cut from steel sheets. Each panel was coated with one of four different coating systems. S1, S2, S3, and S4. Three panels were prepared for each coating system. (These panels are labeled S1-A, S1-B, S1-C. S2-A, S2-B.....S4-C.) The characteristics of the four coating systems are listed at the bottom of the page. Each coated panel was immersed in deionized and deaerated water and then tested for corrosion. Because exposure time is likely to have a strong influence on anticorrosive behavior the researchers attempted to remove this extraneous source of variation through the experimental design. Exposure times were fixed at 24 hours, 60 days, and 120 days. For each of the coating systems, one panel was exposed to water for 24 hours, one exposed to water for 60 days, and one exposed to water for 120 days in random order. The design is illustrated in :he accompanying table.
| Exposure Time | Coating System/Panel Exposed |
| 24 hours | S1-A, S2-C, S3-C, S4-B |
| 60 days | S1-C, S2-A, S3-B, S4-A |
| 120 days | S1-B, S2-B, S3-A, S4-C |
Following exposure, the corrosion rate (nanoamperes per square centimeter) was determined for each panel. The lower the corrosion rate, the greater the anticorrosion performance of the coating system. The data are shown in the next table. Are there differences among the epoxy treatment means? If so, which of the epoxy coating systems yields the lowest corrosion rate?

A sociologist wants to investigate the question, "Is there a relationship between texting during class and grade-point-average (GPA) among high school seniors in a large district?"
Which study design is most appropriate?
Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester, obtain each student’s GPA from the appropriate admissions and records office. Compare the GPA of students who routinely text during class to the GPA of students who do not text during class.

- A case–control study of patients on antihypertensive drugs related an increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI) for patients using calcium channel blockers (Psaty, et al.,1995). In this study, cases were antihypertensive drug patients who had suffered a first fatal or nonfatal MI through 1993, and controls were antihypertensive patients, matched by demographic factors, who had not suffered a MI. Among the comparisons reported were patients receiving calcium channel (CC) blockers (with and without diuretics) and patients receiving β–blockers (with and without diuretics). Results of numbers of patient by drug/MI status combination are given in Table 1. Compute the odds ratio of suffering MI (CC blockers relative to β–blockers), and the corresponding 95% CI. Does it appear that calcium channel blockers are associated with higher odds (and thus probability) of suffering MI than β –blockers?

In their experiment, rats received pairings of a cherry flavor with 8% sucrose solution after exposure to 32% sucrose solution, which made the 8% solution a relatively low value. On other trials, a grape flavor was paired with 8% sucrose solution after exposure to a 2% sucrose solution, which made the 8% solution a relatively high value. Thus, cherry was paired with a relatively low-value reward and grape was paired with a relatively high-value reward. They observed that rats consumed more in ounces of cherry flavor than grape flavor at a later test. Identify the independent and dependent variables for this study. What scale of measurement is the dependent variable? Is the dependent variable discrete or continuous?
