1.) Your uncle sends you a message over Twitter with a link to a medical study. The study compares older adults who report drinking red wine in moderation to older adults who reported abstaining from alcohol. Those who drink red wine in moderation are less likely to have hypertension. Your uncle concludes that he is better off drinking red wine for the health benefits. (a) What is the causal relationship your uncle is trying to uncover and what is the...
The demand for beer for heavy drinkers is given by the following demand function: Qd=190-3P. The demand for beer for light drinkers is given by the following demand function Qd=60-4P. Suppose the current price for beer is, on average, $12 per case. a. What is the price elasticity of demand for heavy drinkers? b. How does this compare to the price elasticity of demand for light drinkers? c. Are the differences in the price elasticity between the two groups what...
Part 1: Read each research question and study design. Then, answer these questions A) First, is the study correlational or experimental? Check the box for the correct study design. B) Second, if the study is correlational, what are the two variables being measured? Alternatively, if the study is experimental, what are the independent and dependent **Your answer to question B depends on how you answered question A*** 3) Are people more likely to comply with a strange request than a...

How much alcohol can one consume before one's Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) is above the legal limit? An experiment was conducted at Gallaudet University to predict Blood Alcohol Content from the number of beers. A total of 50 volunteer college students (some men and some women) were assigned a certain number of beers to drink and then, after a half an hour, their Blood Alcohol (BAC) level was measured. To make this assignment simpler, we will only use the first...
The Australian Government’s Energy Efficiency Opportunities
program encourages large energy using businesses to improve their
energy efficiency. It does this by requiring businesses to
identify, evaluate and report publicly on cost effective energy
savings opportunities. As part of the process of identifying
factors impacting on electricity consumption, a large super market
chain took a sample of 30 stores and investigated the relationship
between electricity consumption and store size. Consider the simple
regression model: consi = β0 + β1sizei +εi
Where:...

2. A recent study conducted by a research team at the University Medical School was conducted to assess how age, systolic blood pressure, and smoking relate to the risk of strokes. The data is is found in the worksheet Stroke data. a. Which variables are the explanatory (independent) variables? b. Which variable is the response (dependent) variable? Run the correlation analysis to produce the correlation matrix. c. Write an interpretation of the correlation matrix. d. At this point are there...
Lung Cancer & Smoking Case Study A causal relationship between cigarette smoking and lung cancer was first suspected in the 1920s on the basis of clinical observations. To test this apparent association, numerous epidemiologic studies were undertaken between 1930 and 1960. Two studies were conducted by Richard Doll and Austin Bradford Hill in Great Britain The first was a case-control study begun in 1947 comparing the smoking habits of lung cancer patients with the smoking habits of other patients. The...
