Crossover trial: A crossover trial is a type of experiment used to compare two drugs. Subjects take one drug for a period of time, then switch to the other. The responses of the subjects are then compared using matched-pair methods. In an experiment to compare two pain relievers, seven subjects took one pain reliever for two weeks, then switched to the other. They rated their pain level from 1 to 10, with larger numbers representing higher levels of pain. The results are listed below. Can you conclude that the mean pain level is more with drug B? Let u, represent the mean pain level with drug A and u= H,- H. Use the a= 0.05 level and the critical value method with the table.

Using the same anti-venom study, answer the following questions. A study was done on children (6 months to 18 years of age) who had (nonlethal) scorpion stings. Researchers wanted to know the effectiveness of a new anti-venonm. Each child was randomly assigned to receive a shot of the anti-venom or a placebo shot. Researchers recorded whether or not their condition improved over the next four hours. a. Identify the population for the study. b. Identify the sample for the study. (HINT: See #1) c. Was this an observational study or a controlled experiment? Explain how you know. d. Assuming the rest of the study was well-designed, use your answers to discuss whether it would be reasonable to conclude that the new anti-venom is effective at treating nonlethal scorpion stings in children.

You are a senior in the agricultural sciences department of NCSU doing an internship at a local dairy farm. Farmer Bill is an expert dairy farmer but has no background in quantitative decision making. Bill claims that the milk produced by his grass-fed Jersey cattle has higher protein content than the milk made by his grain-fed Jersey cattle. His evidence? He says he can taste the difference. You decide to put Bill's claim to the test. You randomly sample 21 grass-fed Jersey cattle and 18 grain-fed Jersey cattle, independently of one another, and obtain a sample of milk from each cow. Both histograms appear approximately normal. You test Ho : 4 = H2 VS. HA : H1 > 2. where 4 is the true mean protein content of milk produced by grass-fed Jersey cattle and-u, is that for the grain-fed cattle. Your test statistic is 1.98. Based on this information, which of the following is true ? Select one or more: O a. The sample mean protein content for the milk samples from the grass-fed cattle you…

Do people feel hungrier after sampling a healthy food? The authors of a consumer research paper carried out a study to answer this question. They randomly assigned volunteers into one of three groups. The people in the first group were asked to taste a snack that was described as a new health bar containing high levels of protein, vitamins, and fiber. The people in the second group were asked to taste the same snack but were told it was a tasty chocolate bar with a raspberry center. After tasting the snack, participants were asked to rate their hunger level on a scale from 1 (not at all hungry) to 7 (very hungry). The people in the third group were asked to rate their hunger but were not given a snack. The data in the table are consistent with summary quantities given in the paper (although the sample sizes in the actual study were larger).

A clinical psychologist wants to test the effectiveness of three new therapies that have been developed for reducing anxiety symptoms. The researcher recruits 15 participants and randomly assigns them to take part in Therapy A, Therapy B, or Therapy C for a month. At the end of the month, the researcher measures the participants' anxiety symptoms on a scale from 1 to 10 (where a higher score means more anxiety symptoms). The participants' scores are shown below: What is the appropriate test to use ? 3. What are the null and alternative hypotheses ? 4. Using a two-tailed alpha of .05, determine what the critical value is 5. Calculate the test statistic 6. State whether you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis for the omnibus test 7. Calculate and report the effect size for the omnibus test 8. Perform a Post-Hoc Test. Report the significance of each pairwise comparison

Swearing is a common, almost reflexive, response to pain. Whether you knock your shin into the edge of a coffee table or smash your thumb with a hammer, most of us respond with a streak of obscenities. One question, however, is whether swearing has any effect on the amount of pain that you feel. To address this issue, Stephens, Atkins, and Kingston (2009) conducted an experiment comparing swearing with other responses to pain. In the study, participants were asked to place one hand in icy cold water for as long as they could bear the pain. Half of the participants were told to repeat their favorite swear word over and over for as long as their hands were in the water. The other half repeated a neutral word. The researchers recorded how long each participant was able to tolerate the ice water. After a brief rest, the two groups switched words and repeated the ice water plunge. Thus, all the participants experienced both conditions (swearing and neutral) with half swearing on their first…

A clinical psychologist is interested in the effect of a new treatment for treating depression. She randomly divides her clients into two groups. One group receives the new treatment and the other group receives the old treatment (control group).  At the end of treatment, she assesses the severity of their depression on a scale ranging from 0 to 20 (higher scores indicate greater depression). Was there a significant difference in depression scores between the two treatments?   New Treatment Old Treatment 2 7 5 10 3 6 8 8 11 4 4 8 6 10 4 4
