QUESTION 4
-
The data set provided below is for a small study in which half the subjects (the Control group) were given a placebo and half (the Treatment or "Tx" group) were given a new medication. Anxiety was measured after treatment to see if there was a difference between the two groups. In this case, lower scores are better because less anxiety is better! "Group" is the independent variable (IV) in this case, but what kind of variable is it in terms of level of measurement (e.g., interval, ratio, ordered, or nominal variables) ?
Homework Answers
Group is nominal variable

Question 4 (2 points) Saved The study "Transcatheter or Surgical Aortic-Valve Replacement in Intermediate-Risk Patients" was published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2016. This study compared the efficacy of two treatments for cardiovascular malfunction. Over 1,000 low-risk patients were randomly assigned to a standard treatment: a type of invasive heart surgery. Another 1,000 low-risk patients were randomly assigned to a nonstandard treatment: the use of a less invasive non-surgical catheter. Researchers compared the two treatment groups, and...
