Question
Shelia's doctor is concerned that she may suffer from gestational diabetes (high blood glucose levels during pregnancy). There is variation both in the actual glucose level and in the blood test that measures the level. A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if the glucose level is above 140 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after a sugary drink. Shelia's measured glucose level one hour after the sugary drink varies according to the

- The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) supplies "standard materials" whose physical properties are supposed to be known. For example, you can buy from NIST a liquid whose electrical conductivity is supposed to be 5. (The units for conductivity are microsiemens per centimeter. Distilled water has conductivity 0.5.) Of course, no measurement is exactly correct. NIST knows the variability of its measurements very well, so it is quite realistic to assume that the population of all measurements of the same liquid has the Normal distribution with mean μμ equal to the true conductivity and standard deviation σσ = 0.2. Here are 6 measurements on the same standard liquid, which is supposed to have conductivity 5: 5.32 4.88 5.10 4.73 5.15 4.75 NIST wants to give the buyer of this liquid a 96% confidence interval for its true conductivity.

- Researchers often rely on surveys to capture a subjective assessment of well-being. One study finds that holding everything else constant, people seem to be least happy when they are in their 40's. Another study suggests that money does buy happiness, but its effects diminishes as income rises above $75000 a year. The accompanying data file includes survey daa of 100 working adults' self-assessed happiness on a scale of ) to 100, along with their age and annual income. Estimate and interpret a regression model based on Age, Age 2 and income. Predict happiness with income equal = to $80000 and age equal to 30, 45, and 60 Years Predict happiness with Age equal = to 60 and income equal to 25,000, 75000, and 125000 Happiness Age Income 69 49 52000 83 47 123000 86 72 112000 73 52 166000 89 68 90000 81 37 152000 75 48 58000 56 48 50000 75 56 93000 57 51 27000 77 60 173000 83 55 173000 85 75 68000 82 69 157000 63 39 40000 70 66 107000 78 34 109000 53…arrow_forwardAccording to the CDC, cholesterol levels can be reduced by following a healthy diet, getting regular exercise, and reducing the amount of alcohol consumed on a weekly basis. One method of monitoring overall cholesterol levels is to calculate your cholesterol ratio (LDL/HDL), in general a cholesterol ratio between 3.5 and 5.0 is considered to be healthy for most adults. Suppose you are a clinical researcher testing the effects of these lifestyle changes on patient cholesterol levels. In order to determine if following these guidelines helps to reduce overall cholesterol, a total of 18 participants (N = 18) with moderate to high cholesterol ratios (i.e., 3.91 to > 5.0) were recruited for a healthy lifestyle study and their cholesterol ratio was calculated three times over a six week period: Week 0 (baseline), Week 3, and Week 6. Using the variables "Week 0", "Week 3", and "Week 6" in the data set, conduct a One-Way, Within Subjects (AKA Repeated Measures) ANOVA, at α = 0.05, to see…arrow_forwardAccording to the CDC, cholesterol levels can be reduced by following a healthy diet, getting regular exercise, and reducing the amount of alcohol consumed on a weekly basis.

Ehlers measured the difference in corneal thickness (in microns) between the two eyes of eight patients. Each patient had one eye that had glaucoma and one eye that was normal. The difference was measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma. Corneal thickness is important because it can mask an accurate reading of eye pressure. Question: If a participant has the same corneal thickness in their normal eye as the eye with Glaucoma, what would be the value for difference: measured as the corneal thickness of normal eye – corneal thickness of eye with Glaucoma.arrow_forward
