8 AM9798.597.697.798.7
12 AM97.697.89898.498.4

Conclusion Given the body temperatures in the table, what issue can be addressed by conducting a statistical analysis of the data.

Short Answer

Expert verified

A statistical analysis can be conducted to either obtain a correlation between the two groups or check the difference in mean values.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Five pairs of body temperatures are recorded at 8 AM and 12 AM.

02

Statistical analysis on the data 

Statistical analysis is a procedure to conclude statistically from certain data. The data is paired, which means two variables record for the same subject.

In the case of paired data on a continuous scale of measurement, the simplest analysis can be conducted based on association (correlation analysis) or test for two group means.

The correlation analysis is performed to check whether there is an association between the groups.

The test for two groups' means can check significant differences between the two groups in terms of their averages (or means).

03

Mention the issues that can be studied using statistical analysis

In the case of body temperatures, analyses can be conducted:

  • To examine the presence of significant differences between the means of body temperatures recorded at 8 AM and 12 AM
  • To examine whether there is any relation or (correlation) between the body temperatures recorded at 8 AM and 12 AM

Clinical Trials. Researchers at Yale University conduct a wide variety of clinical trials by using subjects who volunteer after reading advertisements soliciting paid volunteers.

Correlation. One study showed that for a recent period of 11 years, there was a strong correlation (or association) between the numbers of people who drowned in swimming pools and the amounts of power generated by nuclear power plants (based on data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Energy). Does this imply that increasing power from nuclear power plants is the cause of more deaths in swimming pools? Why or why not?
