A diagnostic test for a certain disease is applied to n individuals known to not have the disease.
A diagnostic test for a certain disease is applied to n individuals known to not have the disease. Let X the number among the n test results that are positive (indicating presence of the disease, so X is the number of false positives) and p = the probability that a disease-free individual's test result is positive (i.e., p is the true proportion of test results from disease-free individuals that are positive). Assume that only X is available rather than the...

The probability that a person has a certain disease is 0.05. Medical diagnostic tests are available to determine whether the person actually has the disease. If the disease is actually present, the probability that the medical diagnostic test will give a positive result (indicating that the disease is present) is 0.90. If the disease is not actually present, the probability of a positive test result (indicating that the disease If the medical diagnostic test has given a positive result (indicating...

The probability that a person has a certain disease is 0.05. Medical diagnostic tests are available to determine whether the person actually has the disease. If the disease is actually present, the probability that the medical diagnostic test will give a positive result (indicating that the disease is present) is 0.88. If the disease is not actually present, the probability of a positive test result (indicating that the disease is present) is 0.02. The probability is (Round to three decimal...

4. For a diagnostic test of a certain disease, let T1 denote the probability that the diagnosis is positive given that a subject has the disease, and let T2 denote the probability that the diagnosis is positive given that a subject does not have it. Let p denote the probability that a subject has the disease. (a) More relevant to a patient who has received a positive diagnosis is the probability that they truly have the disease. Given that a...

Only 1 in 1,000 is afflicted with a rare disease for which a diagnostic test has been developed. When a person has the disease , the test returns a positive result 99% of the time. However, when a person does not have the disease, the test shows a positive result only 2% of the time. When a person's test results are positive, in order to validate the results, a second test is given. The second test has the same accuracy...
The probability that an individual randomly selected from a particular population has a certain disease is...
The probability that an individual randomly selected from a particular population has a certain disease is 0.04. A diagnostic test correctly detects the presence of the disease 94% of the time and correctly detects the absence of the disease 96% of the time. If the test is applied twice, the two test results are independent, and both are positive, what is the (posterior) probability that the selected individual has the disease? [Hint: Tree diagram with first-generation branches corresponding to Disease...

One percent of all individuals in a certain population are carriers of a particular disease. A diagnostic test for this disease has a 95% detection rate for carriers and a 4% detection rate for non-carriers. Suppose the test for this is applied independently to two different blood samples from the same randomly selected individual. Hint: Use Notation A= {no disease} A'={disease} B1= {1st test positive} B2={2nd test positive} a) What is the probability that the first test is positive? b)...

To prevent developing a certain type of cancer, Health Canada organize a diagnostic test. The false positive and negative rates for this diagnostic test are five percent and four percent, respectively. Assume that five percent of the population has this type of cancer. If a randomly selected person has a positive test result, what is the probability that the person has this type of cancer The test is administrated twice on the same patient. Assume that the test results are...
