What is the difference between single and double blinding?
It appears that there is some truth to the old adage “That which doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.” Seery, Holman, and Silver (2010) found that indi- viduals with some history of adversity report better mental health and higher well-being compared to people with little or no history of adversity. In an attempt to examine this phenomenon, a researcher surveys a group of college students to determine the negative life events that they experienced in the past 5 years and their current feeling of well-being. For n = 18 participants with 2 or fewer negative experi- ences, the average well-being score is M = 42
with SS = 398, and for n = 16 participants with5 to 10 negative experiences the average score is M = 48.6 with SS = 370.a. Is there a significant difference between the two
populations represented by these two samples? Use a two-tailed test with α = .05
Please provide an example of a research problem and a hypothesis for this statement.

- What is an experiment?arrow_forwardThe article "A Debate in the Dentist's Chair"+ described an ongoing debate over whether newer resin fillings are a better alternative to the more traditional silver amalgam fillings. Because amalgam fillings contain mercury, there is concern that they could be mildly toxic and prove to be a health risk to those with some types of immune and kidney disorders. One experiment described in the article used sheep as subjects and reported that sheep treated with amalgam fillings had impaired kidney function. (a) In the experiment, a control group of sheep that received no fillings was used but there was no placebo group. Explain why it is not necessary to have a placebo group in this experiment. O Sheep develop kidney diseases from other causes. O People develop impaired kidney functions from other causes. O The experimental subjects were sheep, who would not be aware whether or not they had fillings.

In an attempt to examine this phenomenon, a researcher surveys a group of college students to determine the negative life events that they experienced in the past 5 years and their current feeling of well-being. For n = 16 participants with 2 or fewer negative experiences, the average well-being score is M = 42 with SS = 398, and for n = 16 participants with 5 to 10 negative experiences the average score is M = 48.6 with SS = 370.

In an attempt to examine this phenomenon, a researcher surveys a group of college students to determine the negative life events that they experienced in the past 5 years and their current feeling of well-being.

However, as true for any screening test, they are not completely accurate. If it is determined, based on mammographic findings, that there is a possibility of breast cancer, this is usually confirmed or disconfirmed by a subsequent biopsy. A false positive test is a mammogram positive test that is disconfirmed by biopsy. The data in Table 1 were reported in a paper concerning breast cancer screening (Elmore, et al, New England Journal of Medicine 1998; 338(16): 1089-1096).

Another aspect of mammographic screening is the presence of false negatives. A false negative is a screen negative woman who has breast cancer.

- It’s important to understand social/demographic changes that are taking place and to better understand the direction in which the country is heading and perhaps how to prepare for that. For example, if we see that women are delaying childbearing more and more, then we know that that might have an impact on the number of schools we should build, or at least the timing of building those schools. Let’s say we survey 169 randomly selected mothers, and we find that the age at which they gave birth to their first child is normally distributed, with a mean of 26.0 years and a standard deviation of 3.25 years. (a) What is the standard error of the mean (to 2 decimal places)? (b) What is the probability that the true mean age at first birth for women (i.e., for the entire population from which this sample was drawn) falls between 26.16 and 26.46 years of age (to 4 decimal places)?arrow_forwardThe authors state, “Our study has certain limitations. First, due to the cross-sectional nature of our study, causality cannot be inferred.” Explain what this statement means and why it is an issue.arrow_forwardI got stuck on this question of null hypothesisarrow_forward
