Chapter 6, Problem 70P

Data Set NIFED.DAT (at www.cengagebrain.com) was described earlier. We wish to look at the effect of each treatment separately on heart rate and systolic blood pressure (SBP).

Provide separate point estimates and 95% CIs for the changes in heart rate and SBP (level 1 to baseline) for the subjects randomized to nifedipine and propranolol, respectively. Also provide box plots of the change scores in the two treatment groups.

You have reason to believe that the weekly viewing of Big Bang Theory (the television show, not the actual theory) will lower an individual's IQ. In February, seven test participants who had never watched the show were gathered, given an IQ test, subjected to weekly viewing of the show for 12 weeks, then in May given another similar IQ test. Results are as follows. Sums of interest included = 47 and 2 Σ (d-a) ² = 29.429. Participant ABCDEFG Feb 92 121 115 87 132 99 124 IQ test result May 86 118 110 78 125 91 115 4

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 41 senior citizens were treated with garlic in a processed tablet form. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have an average (mean) of 3.8. Identify the sample, the population, the sample statistic, and the population parameter in this study.

Assess the importance of fixed and random effects.
