Tim is interested in studying whether Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Six people who were diagnosed with OCD participated in Tim's study, where he recorded the number of times they washed their hands per day for one month. They were then given a three week intensive CBT program before their hand-washing was monitored for another month. The average number of times per day each participant washed their hands over the two months of observation are as follows: Participant Month 1 Month 2 1 11 6 2 8 5 3 14 17 4 10 10 5 22 11 6 15 10   Compute the appropriate statistic to determine whether the program was effective and use this information to fill in the blanks:   Q1. revealed that the number of times per day participants washed their hands following the CBT program was Q2. compared to the number of times per day participants washed their hands before the…

A food-frequency questionnaire is used to measure dietary intake. The respondent specifies the number of servings of various food items they consumed over the previous week. The dietary cholesterol is then quantified for each respondent. The researchers were interested in assessing if there was an association between dietary cholesterol intake and high blood pressure. In a large sample of individuals who had completed the questionnaire, 250 persons with a high dietary cholesterol intake (greater than 300 mg /day) were selected and 250 persons with a low dietary cholesterol intake (less than 300 mg/day) were selected. The 500 selected participants had their medical history taken and were classified as having normal or high blood pressure. The data are given here. Dietary Cholesterol Blood Pressure Total High Low High 159 91 250 Low 78 172 250 Total 237 263 500 Test 2: two-tailed test for comparing two independent proportions Clearly state…

The effects of social skill training on a 29 year-old mentally retarded male adult were explored. The subject listened to typical social situations (such as getting a compliment or saying thank you) on audiotape and discussed the situations with a therapist. The subject's positive social verbal interactions were counted before the training, at three times during the training period, and at three times after the training had been completed. All counts were taken by observing the subject at a evening recreation time in the subject's group home. Results show that positive interactions increased during the training period but then rapidly decreased after training had stopped.
