1. the ability of a study to detect an actual effect
or different is called?
a) power
b) Beta
2. what is the mean of the standard normal
distribution?
a) 0 (zero)
b) depends on the distribution of the parent population
Homework Answers
Answer: (A) Power
( Power is affected by sample size, significance size and effect size).
Answer: (A) Zero
( The mean of the standard normal distribution is zero wheras as the standard deviation of 1 is known as standard normal distribution)

Question 8 (1 point) You are planning a study to determine if mean height in a population has changed. The populations mean height in 1920 was 64 inches with a standard deviation of 4 inches. The study needs a big enough sample to detect a change of 1% with a power 0.8 and a significance of 0.05. What is the value of beta (P)? 0.8 O O 0.2 O 0.05 O 0.95

A study of the effect of exposure to color ( red or blue) on the ability to solve puzzles used 44 subjects. Half the subjects were asked to solve a series of puzzles while in a red-colored environment. The other half were asked to solve the same series of puzzles while in a blue-colored environment. The 22 subjects in the red-colored environment had a mean time for solving the puzzles of 9.61 seconds with standard deviation 3.39 ; the 22...

A study of the effect of exposure to color (red or blue) on the ability to solve puzzles used 60 subjects. Half the subjects (30) were asked to solve a series of puzzles while in a red-colored environment. The other half were asked to solve the same series of puzzles while in a blue-colored environment. The time taken to solve the puzzles was recorded for each subject. The 30 subjects in the red-colored environment had a mean time for solving...

An office manager is interested in the effect anxiety has on the ability of individuals to learn new material. She is also interested in whether the effect of anxiety depends on the difficulty of new material. An experiment is conducted with the design shown below. 45 participants participated in the study (5 per group). Each subject is given 30 minutes to learn the material, after which the subjects are tested to determine the amount learned. Results are shown below (values...

Problem 1 In a 5-year follow-up of bilateral stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus among 49 patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, investigators assessed changes in symptoms as measured by the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (range = 0 to 108, with higher values denoting more symptoms). Assume this measure follows a normal distribution. The mean score at baseline was 55.7. The standard deviation of change from baseline to 5 years was 15.3. 1. How much power does this study have to...

After viewing the powerpoint on for chapter 12 answer the following: 1. How do inclusion and exclusion criteria contribute to increasing the strength of evidence by the sampling strategy of a research study? 2. Why is it important for a researcher to use power analysis to calculate sample size? How does adequate sample size affect subject mortality, representativeness of the sample, the researcher's ability to detect a treatment effect, and your ability to generalize the study findings to your patient...
