WEEK FOUR DQ1 Explain the importance of random sampling. What problems/limitations could prevent a truly random sampling and how can they be prevented? Probability sampling‚ also known as random sampling‚ requires that every member of the study population have an equal opportunity to be chosen as a study subject. For each member of the population to have an equal opportunity to be chosen‚ the sampling method must select members randomly. Probability sampling allows every facet of the study population

1. The independent variable for A‚ B‚ and C is postnatal age in hours. The dependent variables for A‚ B‚ and C are systolic blood pressure‚ diastolic blood pressure‚ and mean blood pressure respectively. The relationships between these variable is direct and positive in that as the independent variable of postnatal age increases the corresponding dependent variable increases. 2. The independent and dependent variables in Figure 3 are the same as in Figure 2‚ as well as the relationship between

Exercise 36 1. The researchers found a significant difference between the two groups (control and treatment) for change in mobility of the women with osteoarthritis (OA) over 12 weeks with the results of F(1‚ 22) = 9.619‚ p = 0.005. Discuss each aspect of these results. The F-value is high enough at the 5% level of significance to suggest a significant difference between the control and treatment groups. The p-value 0.005 < 0.05 hence this suggests a rejection of the null hypothesis

Provide a rationale for your answer. t = 2.03* the smallest t ratio listed in Table 2. It indicates that the cholesterol level change was statistically significant from pretest to 3 months. It is greater than the given value of p<0.05 7. Why are the larger t ratios more likely to be statistically significant? They

Threesamma Joseph HLT-362V 9/7/2012 1. The answer is C‚ interval/ratio. The researchers analyzed the data as though it were interval/ratio level. They calculated the mean and standard deviation which is only appropriate for interval/ratio level data. 2. The mean post-test empowerment score for the control group is 97.12. This data is found explicitly in the chart of data given. 3. The baseline score mean is 14 and the post-test depression score mean is 13.36‚ meaning they were less depressed

Tutorial Answer for Chapter 5 1. Which should have the higher risk premium on its interest rates‚ a corporate bond with a Moody’s Baa rating or a corporate bond with a C’s rating? Why? The bond with a C rating should have a higher risk premium because it has a higher default risk‚ which reduces its demand and raises its interest rate relative to that of the Baa bond. 2. Why do US treasury bills have lower interest rates than large-denomination negotiable bank CDs? U.S. Treasury bills have
