[Midterm Q6] In the fаll оf 2012, my wife, Dr Deb Huttо, cоnducted experimentаl triаls to prove her dissertation research proposal. Consider the case of teaching adult students attempting to earn a GED -- students who already had unfavorable experiences with school. Dr Hutto theorized that teachers who involved the students in a learning community and encouraged them to believe in their ability to achieve would produce superior performing students over conventional methods. She was attempting to generate empirical evidence of the superiority of Motivational Systems Theory (MST) in a classroom setting. MST holds that properly taught students will be both more motivated and perform better academically. Dr Hutto was approved to conduct her experiment in 6 adult classes of approximately 10-15 students in three counties in northwest Florida. Dr Hutto randomly assigned conventional and motivational methods to six classrooms -- three each -- and measured student motivation and grade level both prior to the class and after the class. For example, student Jones might score 50 on a motivational questionnaire prior to class and 67 after - an improvement of 17 points in motivation or "self efficacy." Similarly, Jones might move from grade level 6.8 to 8.3 in science during the semester, an improvement of 1.5 grade levels. For motivational classes, Dr Hutto spent two days teaching the instructors her methods. While she could control the teaching methods in each class, she was unable to randomly assign students to classes. She also worried about differences in the inherent teaching ability of the instructors for both classes. a. Can this be considered a designed experiment or is it something else? Why or why not? Recall Montgomery's chapter 1 definition.b. Can this study establish a cause-and-effect link between teaching methods and student achievement?c. In an ideal world, describe at least two changes to a study like this to improve its worth as a designed experiment?
[Midterm Q10 B, C] An аrticle in Biоelectrоmаgnetics (“Electrоmаgnetic Effects on Forearm Disuse) describes a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to determine if a common pulsing electromagnetic field (PEMF) treatment could reduce bone loss after forearm disuse due to injury. Eighty injured subjects immobilized with a cast were randomly placed into four groups. A placebo or PEMF transmitter was worn on the injured forearm for 1, 2, or 4 hours per day for 8 weeks. The data below are the percent loss in forearm bone density (BD) after each patient’s treatment – with instructor modifications. Midterm Q10.png a. Suppose that the orthopedic surgeons consider 2.5% loss of bone density significant and historical data yields a bone loss standard deviation of roughly 1.5% in patients of this type. Using these two numbers, comment on the use of 20 replicates per group: too big or too small? Use Design Expert. Respond here with your answer and reason for it. b. If you were seeking 95% power to detect the numbers mentioned in part a of this problem (2.5% / 1.5%), rebuild your Question 10 design and report the required number of replicates. Respond here with a number: “_________ replicates would be enough for approximately 95% power.”
