How does energy intake compare to energy expenditure? One aspect of this issue was considered in the article 鈥淢easurement of Total Energy Expenditure by the Doubly Labelled Water Method in Professional Soccer Players鈥 (J. of Sports Sciences, 2002: 391鈥397), which contained the accompanying data (MJ/day).

Test to see whether there is a significant difference between intake and expenditure. Does the conclusion depend on whether a significance level of .05, .01, or .001 is used?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Reject null hypothesis at significance level 0.01 and 0.05;

Do not reject null hypothesis at significance level 0.001.

Step by step solution

01

To Find the

Given data suggest that the paired t test should be used.

The Paired t Test:

When\(D = X - Y\)(difference between observations within a pair),\({\mu _D} = {\mu _1} - {\mu _2}\) and null hypothesis

\({H_0}:{\mu _D} = {\Delta _0}.\)

the test statistic value for testing the hypotheses is

\(t = \frac{{\bar d - {\Delta _0}}}{{{s_D}/\sqrt n }}\)

where\(\bar d\)and\({S_D}\)are the sample mean and the sample standard deviation of differences\({d_i}\), respectively. In order to use this test, assume that the differences\({D_i}\)are from a normal population. Depending on alternative hypothesis, the P value can be determined as the corresponding area under the\({l_{n - 1}}\)curve.

The accompanying table gives the necessary values for the paired\(\iota \)test to be performed.

Find the sample value

The sample mean and the sample standard deviation of the differences has to be computed.

The Sample Mean\(\bar x\)of observations\({x_1},{x_2}, \ldots ,{x_n}\)is given by

\(\bar x = \frac{{{x_1} + {x_2} + \ldots + {x_n}}}{n} = \frac{1}{n}\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{x_i}} \)

The sample mean\(\bar d\)for the differences is

\(\bar d = \frac{1}{7} \times ( - 0.2 + 2.9 \ldots 1.5) = 1.757\)

The Sample Variance\({s^2}\) is

\({s^2} = \frac{1}{{n - 1}} \times {S_{xx}}\)

Where

\({S_{xx}} = \sum {{{\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)}^2}} = \sum {x_i^2} - \frac{1}{n} \times {\left( {\sum {{x_i}} } \right)^2}\)

The Sample Standard Deviation s is

\(s = \sqrt {{s^2}} = \sqrt {\frac{1}{{n - 1}} \cdot {S_{xx}}} \)\(P = 0.008 > 0.001\)\(s = \sqrt {{s^2}} = \sqrt {\frac{1}{{n - 1}} \times {S_{xx}}} \)

The sample variance is

\(\begin{array}{l}s_D^2 = \frac{1}{{7 - 1}} \times \left( {{{( - 0.2 - 1.757)}^2} + {{(2.9 - 1.757)}^2} + \ldots + {{(1.5 - 1.757)}^2}} \right)\\ = 1.433\end{array}\)

and the sample standard deviation

\({s_D} = \sqrt {1.433} = 1.197\)

03

To find P value

The hypotheses of interest are\({H_0}:{\mu _D} = 0\)versus\({H_a}:{\mu _D} \ne 0\). The test statistic value is

\(t = \frac{{1.757 - 0}}{{1.197/\sqrt 7 }} = 3.88\)

The degrees of freedom are n-1=7-1=6. The P value is two times the area under\({t_6}\)curve to the right of |t|; thus

\(P = 2 \times P(T > 3.88)) = 2 \times 0.004 = 0.008\)

which was computed using software (you could use the table in the appendix).

Reject null hypothesis

at two of the given significance levels because

\(P = 0.008 < 0.01 < 0.05\)

At significance level 0.001 do

not reject null hypothesis

\(P = 0.008 > 0.001\)

04

Final proof 

Reject null hypothesis at significance level 0.01 and 0.05;

Do not reject null hypothesis at significance level 0.001.

Recent incidents of food contamination have caused great concern among consumers. The article "How Safe Is That Chicken?" (Consumer Reports, Jan. 2010: 19-23) reported that 35 of 80 randomly selected Perdue brand broilers tested positively for either campylobacter or salmonella (or' both), the leading bacterial causes of food-borne disease, whereas 66 of 80 Tyson brand broilers tested positive.

  1. Does it appear that the true proportion of noncontaminated Perdue broilers differs from that for the Tyson brand? Carry out a test of hypotheses using a significance level .01.
  2. If the true proportions of non-contaminated chickens for the Perdue and Tyson brands are .50 and .25, respectively, how likely is it that the null hypothesis of equal proportions will be rejected when a .01 significance level is used and the sample sizes are both 80?

Scientists and engineers frequently wish to compare two different techniques for measuring or determining the value of a variable. In such situations, interest centers on testing whether the mean difference in measurements is zero. The article "Evaluation of the Deuterium Dilution Technique Against the Test Weighing Procedure for the Determination of Breast Milk Intake" (Amer: J. of Clinical Nutr., \(1983: 996 - 1003\)) reports the accompanying data on amount of milk ingested by each of\(14\)randomly selected infants.

a. Is it plausible that the population distribution of differences is normal?

b. Does it appear that the true average difference between intake values measured by the two methods is something other than zero? Determine the\(P\)-value of the test, and use it to reach a conclusion at significance level . \(05\).

The degenerative disease osteoarthritis most frequently affects weight-bearing joints such as the knee. The article "Evidence of Mechanical Load Redistribution at the Knee Joint in the Elderly When Ascending Stairs and Ramps" (Annals of Biomed. Engr., \(2008: 467 - 476\)) presented the following summary data on stance duration (ms) for samples of both older and younger adults.

\(\begin{array}{*{20}{l}}{Age\;\;\;\;\;\;\;Sample Size\;\;Sample Mean\;\;Sample SD}\\{\;Older\;\;\;\;\;28\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;801\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;117}\\{Younger\;16\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;780\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;72}\end{array}\)

Assume that both stance duration distributions are normal.

a. Calculate and interpret a\(99\% \)CI for true average stance duration among elderly individuals.

b. Carry out a test of hypotheses at significance level\(.05\)to decide whether true average stance duration is larger among elderly individuals than among younger individuals.

Damage to grapes from bird predation is a serious problem for grape growers. The article "'Experimental Method to Investigate and Monitor Bird Behavior and Damage to Vineyards" (Amer. \(J\). of Enology and Viticulture, 2004: 288-291) reported on an experiment involving a bird-feeder table, time-lapse video, and artificial foods. Information was collected for two different bird species at both the experimental location and at a natural vineyard setting. Consider the following data on time (sec) spent on a single visit to the location.

\(\begin{array}{l}Species Location n \overline x SEmean\\Blackbirds Exptl 65 13.4 2.05 \\Blackbirds Natural 50 9.7 1.76\\Silvereyes Exptl 34 49.4 4.78\\Silvereyes Natural 46 38.4 5.06\end{array}\)

a. Calculate an upper confidence bound for the true average time that blackbirds spend on a single visit at the experimental location.

b. Does it appear that true average time spent by blackbirds at the experimental location exceeds the true average time birds of this type spend at the natural location? Carry out a test of appropriate hypotheses.

c. Estimate the difference between the true average time blackbirds spend at the natural location and true average time that silvereyes spend at the natural

Return to the data on maximum lean angle given in Exercise 28 of this chapter. Carry out a test at significance level .10 to see whether the population standard deviations for the two age groups are different (normal probability plots support the necessary normality assumption).
