Wilfley and colleagues (2008) tested whether the antiobesity drug sibutramine would be an effective treatment for people with binge eating disorder. They measured the frequency of binge eating every 2 weeks for 24 weeks during treatment. The following table lists a portion of the data similar to results reported by the authors for the frequency of binge eating over the first 8 weeks of the drug treatment.

A child psychologist treats four children who are afraid of snakes with a behavioral modification procedure called systematic desensitization. In this procedure, children were slowly introduced to a snake over four treatment sessions. Children rated how fearful they are of the snake before the first session (baseline) and following each treatment session. Higher ratings indicated greater fear. The hypothetical data are listed in the table. Sessions Baseline 1 2 3 4 7 7 5 4 3 7 6 6 4...

Researchers in mental health fields are often interested in evaluating the effectiveness of using food images to enhance positive mood. Adapting a typical design from such studies, suppose we have participants rate their mood change on a standard self-report affect scale after viewing images of "comfort" foods, fruits/vegetables (F/V), and random non-food images (used as a control group). The results are given in the table at right for this hypothetical study. Images Control F/V Comfort Foods 0 0 3 0...
