Wesson (1976) examined the influence of the drug succinylcholine on the circulation levels of androgens in the blood. Blood samples from wild deer were obtained after an intramuscular injection of the drug using darts and a capture gun. Deer were bled again 30 minutes after the injection, and then released. The dataset on 10 such deer are available in the dataset named ‘Problem 5’. Test with a significance level of 0.05 whether the androgen concentrations are altered after 30 minutes of restraint. (Note: Testing the difference of means)

Deer	Levels at time of injection	Levels at 30 minutes after injection
1	2.76	7.02
2	5.18	3.1
3	2.68	5.44
4	3.05	3.99
5	4.1	5.21
6	7.05	10.26
7	6.6	13.91
8	4.79	18.53
9	7.39	7.91
10	7.3	4.85

15 patients have been examined after intake for Glucose levels of a drug. If mean difference= 2.55 and standard deviation difference= 2.8 of glucose level, was observed between before and after intake of this drug. Does that prove the new drug is effective in the treatment of diabetes at 95% CL? please explain

4. In a fictional study, the influence of a television program on children's aggressiveness was examined. The number of aggressive responses was measured during an observation period after the children viewed the television program. Imagine that the known national average for number of aggressive responses typically performed by children who do not watch television is 6.647. a) Perform the six steps of hypothesis testing using the data in the table and a two-tailed t test at an α level .05....

A study examined parental influence on the decisions of teenagers from a certain large region to smoke. A randomly selected group of students, from the region, who had never smoked were questioned about their parents' attitudes toward smoking. These students were questioned again two years later to see if they had started smoking. The researchers found that, among the 263 students who indicated that their parents disapproved of kids smoking, 53 had become established smokers. Among the 43 students who...

A recent study examined the effect of diet cola consumption on calcium levels in women. A sample of 16 healthy women aged 18 – 40 were randomly assigned to drink 24 ounces of either diet cola or water. Their urine was collected for three hours after ingestion of the beverage and calcium excretion (in mg) was measured. The researchers were investigating whether diet cola leaches calcium out of the system, which would increase the amount of calcium in the urine...

A study examined parental influence on teenagers' decisions to smoke. A group of students who had never smoked were questioned about their parents' attitudes toward smoking. These students were questioned again two years later to see if they had started smoking. The researchers found that, among the 284 students who indicated that their parents disapproved of kids smoking, 64 had become established smokers. Among the 30 students who initially said their parents were lenient about smoking, 12 became smokers. Do...

A research study examined the blood vitamin D levels of the entire US population of landscape gardeners. The population average level of vitamin D in US landscapers was found to be 45.29 ng/mL with a standard deviation of 4.701 ng/mL. Assuming the true distribution of blood vitamin D levels follows a Gaussian distribution, if you randomly select a landscaper in the US, what is the likelihood that his/her vitamin D level will be between 57.21 and 60.85 ng/mL? Suppose at...

A research study examined the blood vitamin D levels of the entire US population of landscape gardeners. The population average level of vitamin D in US landscapers was found to be 34.15 ng/mL with a standard deviation of 5.672 ng/mL. Assuming the true distribution of blood vitamin D levels follows a normal distribution, if you randomly select a landscaper in the US, what is the likelihood that his/her vitamin D level will be 49.72 ng/mL or less?
