Observational Studies and Experiments
Explain why each of the following questions are best answered by an observational study or an
experiment. Use details such as sample availability, ethics, and lurking variables to support your choice.
. Does this nutrient-enhanced soil increase the average fruit size for apple trees planted in it?
• Is there an effect on brain development for babies exposed to this antidepressant during pregnancy?
• Does this sound frequency, which is undetectable by human hearing, improve focus during studying?
. Do concussions cause memory loss?
Identify whether each of the following is an observational study or an experiment, and explain how you
know. If it is an observational study, specify whether it is retrospective or prospective, and explain how
you know. If it is an experiment, specify whether it is blind, double-blind, controlled, and explain how
you know.
Researchers are studying whether eating a small amount of dark chocolate every day affects resting
heart rate. They measure the resting heart rate daily for a week before the beginning of the study,
and daily for a week after the end of the study, which lasts six months. The researchers are not told
ahead of time which participants are and are not eating dark chocolate.
• A study tracks the long-term professional careers of students for ten years after they graduate from
college.
• A psychologist is determining what proportion of her patients with eating disorders experienced
harmful body image narratives in childhood.
. Clinical trials for a new blood pressure medication are determining which dosage is most effective.
One group receives a placebo, one group receives the low dose, and one group receives the higher
dose. Subjects are paired according to age and similar genetic profile, and are following a prescribed
diet and exercise regimen. Neither the researchers nor the participants know which dosage any
participant is receiving, if any.

On clear days, the views are spectacular. From her cubicle, Sylvia's eye catches the edge of the beautiful blue-and-white skyscraper as she reaches for her inhaler. Unfortunately, this is the third asthma attack she has experienced since she returned from lunch four hours ago—her asthma is really bad today. But if she leaves work early again, her boss will write her up for it. Sylvia concentrates on breathing normally. Her roommate, Kelly, is a respiratory therapist at the county hospital. Kelly says Sylvia's asthma attacks are probably triggered by the city's high level of air pollution and high levels of pollen. That can't be true. They both run in the park every morning before work, and Sylvia rarely needs to use her inhaler then. Her problems start when she gets to work. The wheezing and coughing were so bad today that by the time she got up the elevator and…arrow_forwardMatch the statement on the left with the accurate directional term on the rightarrow_forward
- I am needing clarification of why is the nasal airway open during the Oral Prepatory Phase?arrow_forwardA CST is assisting a surgeon with a lumbar discectomy procedure. The CST removes tissue from the jaws of the pituitary rongeur that the surgeon is using to remove the disc material. He looks at the specimen and says to the physician, “I think you should stop and look at this – it doesn’t look like disc material to me.” The surgeon asks, “How so?”, and the CST responds, “It has a lumen.” The surgeon examines the tissue, has the circulator page a genitourinary specialist, completes the discectomy, and assists in the repair of the ureter. What did the CST have to know in order to make this critical observation? Discuss the relationship between knowledge of anatomy and physiology and its practical application in the OR setting.arrow_forwardDavid suffered head trauma from an automobile accident and now has anosmia.
