Q. 4 In a retrospective study of 71 knees scanned by MRI. One of the indicators they examined was the absence of the "bow-tie sign" in the MRI as evidence of a bucket-handle or "bucket-handle type" tear of the meniscus. In the study, surgery confirmed that 43 of the 71 cases were bucket-handle tears. The cases may be cross-classified by "bow-tie sign" status and surgical results as follows: Tear Surgically Confirmed as Test result Confirmed (D) not present (D) Positive Test 38 10 (absent bow-tie design)(7) Negative Test (absent bow-tie design)(T) 5 18 (a) What is the sensitivity and specificity of testing to see if the absent bow- tie sign indicates a meniscal tear? (b) What additional information would you need to determine the predictive value of the test?

A researcher is interested in assessing if there are differences in the average number of monthly religious event attendances across religious affiliations. Religious event attendance is measured as an interval-ratio variable: it is the number of events that each survey respondent reported attending in the previous month. Religious affiliation is measured as a nominal variable with the following categories: Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, other, and not religious. Which of the following hypothesis tests would be appropriate, given the types of variables presented? O Chi-square test O Two-sample difference-of-proportions z-test O ANOVA O One-sample difference-of-proportions z-test
In a bumper test, three test vehicles of each of three types of autos were crashed into a barrier at 5 mph, and the resulting damage was estimated. Crashes were from three angles: head-on, slanted, and rear-end. The results are shown below. Research questions: Is the mean repair cost affected by crash type and/or vehicle type?

Dr. Mackintosh believes a new olfactory therapy would be more successful in promoting weight loss among obese patients. His patients are first weighed and then randomly assigned to olfactory therapy, dance therapy, or a control condition. At the end of the three weeks, the amount of weight lost is recorded. The results indicate no significant difference in the amount of weight lost between the three conditions. If true differences existed between the conditions, but they were not detected, what kind of error occurred?
In intaglio printing, a design or figure is carved beneath the surface of hard metal or stone. Suppose that an experiment is designed to compare differences in mean surface hardness of steel plates used in intaglio printing (measured in indentation numbers), based on two different surface conditions-untreated and treated by lightly polishing with emery paper. In the experiment, 40 steel plates are randomly assigned-20 that are untreated, and 20 that are treated. The results of the experiment are in the “Intaglio” data in Chapter 10_HW_Data.xls. Assuming that the population variances from both conditions are equal, is there evidence of a difference in the mean surface hardness between untreated and treated steel plates? (use α = 0.05) Determine the p-value in (a) and interpret its meaning. In addition to equal variances, what other assumption is necessary in (a)? Repeat Problem (a), assuming that the population variances from untreated and treated steel plates are not…
We are interested in comparing the proportions of men and women who say earning a large salary is very important to them. You surveyed 200 men and 200 women and recorded their answers to the question as “yes” (earning a large salary is very important) or “no” (earning a large salary is not very important). Yes No Total Men 150 50 200 Women 110 90 200 Total 260 140 400 Test the association between sex and the importance of earning a large salary using a z-test. Provide the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, p-value, and conclude test with 0.01 signifigance.

To further examine this relationship, a psychol- ogist obtains a sample of n = 12 young adults who each experienced 5 or more different homes before they were 16 years old.

The authors of the paper "Statistical Methods for Assessing Agreement Between Two Methods of Clinical Measurement" compared two different instruments for measuring a subject's ability to breathe out air.† (This measurement is helpful in diagnosing various lung disorders.) The two instruments considered were a Wright peak flow meter and a mini-Wright peak flow meter. Seventeen subjects participated in the study, and for each subject air flow was measured once using the Wright meter and once using the mini-Wright meter.
