Question 1c (0.5 pts): In a study published in 2016, a team of researchers found that tensile strain caused the valence band of an organic semiconductor to narrow and fall to lower energy levels without affecting the conduction band. What do you think this means for the electrical conductivity of the material when placed under tensile strain? Why do you think this occurs?

2. In 2004, a team of researchers published a study of contaminants in farmed salmon. Fish from many sources were analyzed for 14 organic contaminants. The study expressed concerns about the level of contaminants found. One of those was the insecticide mirex, which has been shown to be carcinogenic and is suspected to be toxic to the liver, kidneys, and endocrine system. Summaries for the mirex concentrations (in parts per million) in the farmed salmon are: n=150, X ̅=0.0913 ppm,...

In a study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry researchers wanted to measure the effect of alcohol on the development of the hippocampal region (responsible for long term memory storage) in adolescents. The researchers randomly selected 12 adolescents with alcohol use disorders. They wanted to determine whether the hippocampal volumes in the alcoholic adolescents were less than the normal volume of 9.02 cubic centimeters HA:μ<9.02 . An analysis of the sample data revealed that the hippocampal volume is approximately...

Researchers found a crude odds ratio of 1.8 in a case-control study.  They stratified their analysis within levels of a binary potential confounder and found an odds ratio of 1.2 in one level of the confounder and an odds ratio of 2.8 in the other level of the confounder.   A. Do you think they should present the adjusted odds ratio in the report of their results?   B. Why or why not?

Application Exercise: A team of researchers recruited a random sample of migraine sufferers. Before the study began at baseline, participants were asked to record the duration of headaches they experienced in a week. A few days later, all participants were asked to practice a week-long relaxation technique designed to reduce migraine headaches. A two-week off period in which the participants practiced nothing was given between the relaxation technique. Throughout the relaxation technique participants were asked to record the duration of...

2. A team of market researchers conducted a study involving 200 inhabitants of the United States to determine what people fear most. The gender of each person polled was noted, and then each was asked which of the following was his or her greatest fear: speaking before a group, heights, bugs/insects, financial problems, sickness/death, and other. The results of the poll are given in the table. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate a relationship between gender and greatest...
