The screening process for detecting a rare disease is not perfect. Researchers have developed a blood test that is considered fairly reliable. It gives a positive reaction in 94.4% of the people who have that disease. However, it erroneously gives a positive reaction in 3.9% of the people who do not have the disease. Consider the null hypothesis "the individual does not have the disease" to answer the following questions. a. What is the probability of a Type I error?...

The screening process for detecting a rare disease is not perfect. Researchers have developed a blood test that is considered fairly reliable. It gives a positive reaction in 94.8% of the people who have that disease. However, it erroneously gives a positive reaction 3.3% of the people who do not have the disease. Consider the null hypothesis "the individual does not have the disease,to answer the following questions. o. What is the probability of a Type l error? (Round your...

A polygraph (lie detector) is an instrument used to determine if an individual is telling the truth. These tests are considered to be 92% reliable. In other words, if an individual lies, there is a 0.92 probability that the test will detect a lie. Let there also be a 0.080 probability that the test erroneously detects a lie even when the individual is actually telling the truth. Consider the null hypothesis, "the individual is telling the truth," to answer the...

A screening test for a rare form of TB has a 7% false positive rate (i.e. indicates the presence of the disease in people who do not have it). The test has an 8% false negative rate (i.e. indicates the absence of the disease in people who do have it). In a population of which 0.6% have the disease, what is the probability that someone who tests positive has the disease?

A screening test for a rare from of TB has a 7% false positive rate (i.e. indicates the presence of the disease in people who do not have it). The test has an 18% false negative rate (i.e. indicates the absence of the disease in people who do have it). Suppose that 3% of the population have the disease. (i) Partition the sample space into those who have the disease, B1, and those who don’t have the disease, B2. Find...

4. Generalize the Bayesian analysis of medical screening given in class. Let a rare disease D occur with probability P(D) = δ, with δ small. The test for this disease is accurate such that the probability of a correct result is 1-e, with e small. Derive formulas for the probabilities of a true positive P(D|+) and a false positive, P(D'l+). For this screening to be useful at a given δ, what is required of e ?

The test for this disease is accurate such that the probability of a correct result is 1-e, with e small. Derive formulas for the probabilities of a true positive P(D|+) and a false positive, P(D|+). For this screening to be useful at a given δ, what is required of ε ?

In a laboratory, blood test is 95% effective in detecting a certain disease, when it is, in fact, present. However, the test also yields a false positive (test is positive but patient does not have the disease) result for 1% of the healthy people tested. 0.5% of the population actually has the disease. Given this information, calculate the following probabilities: The probability that the test is positive. Given a negative result, the probability that the person does not have the...

Jane is being tested for a rare disease. Only 1.5% of the population has the disease. The following data were collected. First a group of people who had the disease were tested. 98.5% tested positive and 1.5% tested negative. Next, a group of people who did not have the disease were tested. 3% tested positive and 97% tested negative. (First write down the six given probabilities) [1] Page 4 of 8 MATH 140 - Introduction to Statistics What is the...

A medical test has been designed to detect the presence of a certain disease. Among people who have the disease, the probability that the disease will be detected by the test is 0.94. However, the probability that the test will erroneously indicate the presence of the disease in those who do not actually have it is 0.05. It is estimated that 6% of the population who take this test have the disease. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a)...
