GHT AT NIGHT MAKES FAT MICE Studies have shown that exposure to light at night is harmful to human health. A study in mice shows that light at night has an effec weight gain after just three weeks. In the study, mice were randomly assigned to live in one of three light conditions: LD had a stand ight/dark cycle, LL had bright light all the time, and DM had dim light when there normally would have been darkness.

- A random selection of volunteers at a research institute has been exposed to a weak flu virus. After the volunteers began to have flu symptoms, 20 of them were given multivitamin tablets daily that contained 1 gram of vitamin C and 3 grams of various other vitamins and minerals. The remaining 20 volunteers were given tablets containing 4 grams of vitamin C only. For each individual, the length of time taken to recover from the flu was recorded. At the end of the experiment the following data were obtained. Treated with multivitamin Treated with vitamin C Days to recover from flu 7.2, 5.3, 4.9, 4.4, 2.0, 4.0, 5.9, 4.9, 5.2, 7.7, 4.2, 7.3, 5.0, 7.3, 7.5, 3.0, 6.4, 6.5, 7.1, 4.6 2.9, 2.7, 5.4, 3.9, 4.7, 4.0, 5.9, 2.9, 6.8, 5.8, 7.0, 4.0, 1.6, 6.0, 3.7, 3.9, 4.5, 0.4, 6.4, 0.9 Send data to Excel Send data to calculator Lower limit: Upper limit: Suppose that it is known that the population standard deviation of recovery time from the flu is 1.8 days when treated with multivitamins and that…A random selection of volunteers at a research institute have been exposed to a typical cold virus.

- A paper describes a study of the use of MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) exams in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The purpose of the study was to determine if MRI exams do a better job than mammograms of determining if women who have recently been diagnosed with cancer in one breast have cancer in the other breast. The study participants were 950 women who had been diagnosed with cancer in one breast and for whom a mammogram did not detect cancer in the other breast. These women had an MRI exam of the other breast, and 101 of those exams indicated possible cancer. After undergoing biopsies, it was determined that 30 of the 101 did in fact have cancer in the other breast, whereas 71 did not. The women were all followed for one year, and four of the women for whom the MRI exam did not indicate cancer in the other breast were subsequently diagnosed with cancer that the MRI did not detect. The accompanying table summarizes this information. Cancer Cancer Not Present Present Total MRI…A study indicates that CB radio use speeds up activity in the brain. As part of a randomized crossover study, 36 participants were fitted with a CB radio device on each ear and then underwent two positron emission topography, or PET, scans to measure brain glucose metabolism. During one scan, the CB radios were both turned off. During the other scan, an automated 40- minute muted signal was sent to the radio on the right ear. The order of when the signal was received (for the first or second scan) was randomized. Comparison of the PET scans showed a minor increase in activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna during the transmission of the automated signal. Was this an observational study or an experiment? Explain why. O The study is an observational study because the reseashers cannot control the response variable during the signal. O The study is an observational study because the researchers only observe values of the response and explanatory variables. O The study is…A random selection of volunteers at a research institute has been exposed to a weak flu virus.

- Consider a simple logistic model in which the response variable is attendance at a conference (yes = 1; no = 0), and the sole independent variable is a college degree (degree = 1; no degree = 0). The estimated odds ratio for the college degree variable is 1.25. What is its proper interpretation?A random selection of volunteers at a research institute has been exposed to a weak flu virus.

One sample of rats serves as a control group and receives a placebo that does not affect normal levels of serotonin. A second sample of rats receives a drug that lowers brain levels of serotonin. Using an alpha level of a = .05, the researcher then tests the animals by recording the number of aggressive responses each of the rats display. The data are as follows: a.) Step 1: State the Hypotheses Ho: H₁: Control n = 10 M = 14 SS=180.5 b.)
