100 school children: On first day of term 8 have a cold. During the first week (the study period) a further 15 develop a cold.
1. What is the prevalence on day1 ?
2. What is the cumulative incidence? First work out the population at risk on day 1
The total number of childrens in the school - 100
On first day of the term 8 children had cold
During the first week -15 more children developed cold
1. Prevalence rate is the proportion of persons in a population who have a particular disease or attribute at a specified point in time or over a specified period of time.
Prevalence rate of day 1 = Number of all childrens with cold / Total number of children at that specified point in time
= 8 / 100 = 0.08 %
2. Cumulative incidence - Number of new cases of disease during a given period of time / total population at risk
= Number of new cases with cold - 15
Total number of children = 100
Cumulative incidence = 15/ 100
= 0.15

Suppose you want to show that first-born children have an average higher cholesterol level than the national average. It is known that the mean cholesterol level for all Americans is 190, give or take 15. We test 100 first-born children and find that their average cholesterol level is 198. Test this hypothesis at the .05 alpha level. (Tip: “give or take” is a layman’s term for standard deviation!) Construct the hypothesis test: 1a. State your conceptual null hypothesis (This is...
