Exercise 11 Questions to be graded March 16‚ 2014 1. What demographic variables were measured at least at the interval level of measurements? Age‚ income‚ length of labor‚ return to work‚ and number of hours working per week 2. What statistics were used to describe the length of labor in the study? Were these appropriate? Mean and standard deviation were used to describe the length of labor. Yes‚ these were appropriate because a mean (M) can only be used to calculate on interval (and

PEARSON’S PRODUCT-MOMENT CORRELATION COEFFICIENT ANSWERS TO EXERCISE 23 Question 1 The r value for the relationship between Hamstring strength index 60o and the Shuttle run test is -0.149. This r value shows a weak correlation between the two variables‚ as it is less than the 0.3 threshold for significance. Therefore‚ the r value is not significant. Question 2 Between r=1.00 and r=-1.00‚ there is no difference in terms of strength. Both values are on the extreme ends of the spectrum and signify

1. Were the groups in this study independent or dependent? Provide a rationale for your answer. Independently due to the data being collected independently 2. t = −3.15 describes the difference between women and men for what variable in this study? Is this value significant? Provide a rationale for your answer. t = -3.15 describes mental health in this study. This is significant because mental health plays a big role in the outcome of MI patients. 3. Is t = −1.99 significant? Provide a

Exercise 27 5. In the legend beneath Figure 2[->0]‚ the authors give an equation indicating that systolic blood pressure is SBP = 43.2 + 0.17x. If the value of x is postnatal age of 30 hours‚ what is the value for Ŷ or SBP for neonates ≤1‚000 grams? Show your calculations. Y = a + bx 43.2 + 0.17(30) = 48.3 The SBP for neonates ≤1‚000 grams at 30 hours is 48.3. 6. In the legend beneath Figure 2[->1]‚ the authors give an equation indicating that systolic blood pressure is SBP = 50.3 + 0.12x

Exercise 36 Answers 1. Since the F value is significant‚ based on the p-value of 0.005 which is less than 0.05 which is sufficient to reject the null hypothesis. This suggests that there is a difference in the control and treatment groups. 2. Since the p- value is less than 0.05 and therefor the null hypothesis can be rejected. This presents that the mean‚ difficulty and mobility scores‚ must be different 3. The result was statistically significant with a probability score of p < 0.001.
