Chapter 4: Q 56. (page 254)

Exercise and heart rate A student project measured the increase in the heart rates of fellow students when they stepped up and down for three minutes to the beat of a metronome. The step was either 5.75or 11.5inches high and the metronome beat was 14,21or 28steps per minute. Five students stepped at each combination of height and speed.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Subject: Combination of height and weight .

Explanatory variables: phase height and metronome speed.

Treatments:There are six height and rate variations.

Response Variables: Heart rate

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

The height of the step was 5.75or 11inches high. The metronome beat was14,21,28.

02

To determine

We need to determine:

Subjects of experimentation, explanatory variables, treatments and response variables.

03

Explanation

Subject: Combination of height and weight attended by five students. Students are subjects also,
Explanatory variables: Response depends on phase height and metronome speed.

Treatments:There are six height and rate variations. The procedures are:

  1. Twenty one steps per minute.
  2. Fourteen steps a minute.
  3. Twenty eight steps in a minute.
  4. Twenty one steps in a minute.
  5. Fourteen steps in a minute.
  6. Twenty eight steps per minute.

Response Variables: Heart rate is response variable as it is measured for five students.

Improving response rate How can we reduce the rate of refusals in telephone surveys? Most people who answer at all listen to the interviewer鈥檚 introductory remarks and then decide whether to continue. One study made telephone calls to randomly selected households to ask for opinions about the next election. In some calls, the interviewer gave her name, in others she identified the university she was representing, and in still others, she identified both herself and the university. For each type of call, the interviewer either did or did not offer to send a copy of the final survey results to the person interviewed. Do these differences in the introduction affect whether the interview is completed?

An example of a non-sampling error that can reduce the accuracy of a sample survey is

(a) using voluntary response to choose the sample.

(b) using the telephone directory as the sampling frame.

(c) interviewing people at shopping malls to obtain a sample.

(d) variation due to chance in choosing a sample at random.

(e) inability to contact many members of the sample.

What is the purpose of the control group in this experiment?

The Web portal AOL places opinion poll questions next to many of its news stories. Simply click your response to join the sample. One of the questions

in January 2008 was 鈥淒o you plan to diet this year?鈥� More than 30,000 people responded, with 68% saying 鈥淵es.鈥� You can conclude that

(a) about 68% of Americans planned to diet in 2008

(b) the poll used a convenience sample, so the results tell us little about the population of all adults.

(c) the poll uses voluntary response, so the results tell us little about the population of all adults.

(d) the sample is too small to draw any conclusion.

(e) None of these.
