Operationalize the dependent variable in the following hypothesis statement as a ratio-level measure, “It is hypothesized that people who complete annual physical exams (compared to those who do not complete annual physical exams) will be healthy.”
The hypothesis: "People who complete annual physical exams (compared to those who do not complete annual physical exams) will be healthy."
Here the dependent variable is periodic Diagnosis of health-related problems & treatment of these conditions accordingly. In annual physical exams, the history of the patient's health is taken into account & also his vital signs like blood pressure, heart rate, BMR, temperature are measured , along with a thorough check-up on the heart & the lungs. If there is a condition, it can be easily detected in its early stage due to periodic & regular diagnosis, and preventive measures can be taken which are more effective than curative measures (which are taken once the disease has fully set in).

2. For the following testable hypotheses, identify the independent and dependent variable. Hypothesis: A person's resting heart rate will drop after cycling for 1 hour 3x per week for three months. INDEPENDENT VARIABLE DEPENDENT VARIABLE Hypothesis: In a patient with a bacterial blood infection, 50 mg of penicillin applied once in an IV drip will kill more bacteria than giving the patient 50 mg of penicillin in a single pill ingested orally. NDEPENDENT VARIABLE DEPENDENT VARIABLE Hypothesis: The frequency of...
Identify the independent and the dependent variable, as well as the unit of analysis, in the following hypothesis- Fewer people who are lower class own their own home than people who are upper class. IV: DV: Unit of analysis: Identify the independent and the dependent variable, as well as the unit of analysis, in the following hypothesis- Fewer people who are lower class own their own home than people who are upper class. IV: DV: Unit of analysis:
Construct a research hypothesis that has one nominal level independent variable and one ordinal level dependent variable .Explain how you would measure the dependent variable to produce the desired level of measurement.
1.Given an interval or ratio scale dependent variable and a nominal independent variable with three or more levels, we could use a(n) ________ to analyze the data. Select one: A. t test B. ANOVA C. z test D. PRE test 2. Interested in the effects of different kinds of instruction on videogame performance, Martin asks 30 college freshmen to each play an hour of Ratchet and Klank. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three instruction groups: (1) complete the...
Write a research question for each of the following phenomenon. Make sure you have an Independent variable and a Dependent variable identified for each statement, by indicating (IV) and (DV) behind the appropriate term. Remember that the DV is the outcome being measured, and that it is dependent upon the IV, which is the intervention. (For example: anxiety level of hospitalized children and parent rooming in. My research question is: Is the anxiety level (DV) of hospitalized children decreased when...
A colorful frog species has four color morphs. It's been hypothesized that frequency-dependent selection will stabilize the color morphs in a population to a 1:1:1:1 ratio. You collect 160 frogs and observe the following numbers: red spot 34 yellow 48 blue stripe 40 pink chevron 38 The question of interest is whether the frogs in this population are in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. Step 2: State the null hypothesis. Step 3: State the alternative hypothesis. Step 4: What is the correct...
In controlled comparison research, the observed relationship between an independent variable (X) and a dependent variable (Y) may be caused by some other, uncontrolled compositional difference (Z). So, we always ask, “How else, besides the independent variable, are the groups I am comparing not the same?” For the hypothesis below, do the following: (i) Think up a plausible alternative causal variable. (ii) Describe how this variable might affect the relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable. In a...
8. _____ can be interpreted as the proportion of variance in the dependent variable that is accounted for by the independent variable. MS R2 F d 9. By convention, an R2 value of 0.16 would be considered: too small to reject the null hypothesis. large. small. medium. 10. The Bonferroni test is: more conservative than the Tukey's HSD test. a post-hoc test. a planned comparison test. a post-hoc test and is more conservative than the Tukey's HSD test. 11. Calculation...
You conducting the claim that variable and the column variable are dependent in the following are a test of the row contingency table A 20 31 24 B 13 72 36 Give all answers rounded to 3 places after the decimal point, if necessary (a) Enter the expected frequencies below: (b) What is the chi-square test-statistie for this data? Test Statistic: χ- (c) What is the critical value for this test of independence when using a significance level of a-0.05?...
3. Determine whether the following sampling is dependent or independent. Indicate whether the response variable is qualitative or quantitative. A researcher wishes to compare personality types of married pharmacists and their spouses. She obtains a random sample of 187 such couples who take a personality inventory and determines each spouse's personality type. Determine whether the following sampling is dependent or independent. O A. The sampling is dependent because an individual selected for one sample does not dictate which individual is...
