I need answer only for questions 6 and 7 using EF2 SPSS FILE, SOME ONE HAS ANSWE

ID: 3350463 • Letter: I

Question

I need answer only for questions 6 and 7 using EF2 SPSS FILE, SOME ONE HAS ANSWERED QUESTIONS 1 TO 5 (USING EF1 SPSS FILE) BUT NOT QUESTIONS 6 AND 7. i am attaching answers for part 1 (from 1 to 5) at the end which someone had solved previously may this will help when draw conculsion for question 6.

Please do not solve it manually as i need respective SPSS output files as well. There are two SPSS file associated with these excercise EF1 (ejection fraction 1), for question number 1-5 and EF2 for used for question number 6 and 7(ejection fraction 2). Please find both SPSS FILES at the end. Thanks.

The data set EF1.SAV contains percentages of fractional fraction, made by 34 subjects in an imaginary clinical study. The efficacy fraction (EF) was calculated before and after treatment, given with the baseline and post variables, while ID is patient number.

1- Check if Baseline is a normally distributed variable.

2- Calculate average and standard deviation for Baseline, and find a 95% confidence interval for the Baseline average.

3- Repeat Points 1 and 2 for the Post variable.

4- Is there a significant difference between the Baseline and Post average? Make an analysis based on both confidence and p-value.

5- Write a short summary of what you found.

A researcher who has not had any course in statistics analyzes the same data using a two-sample method. He considers the data from before and after treatment as if they came from two random sample of patients.

Here you can use the dataset ef2.sav; The data represents the ejaculation fraction before and after a treatment. The measurements are the same as in ef1.sav, but the data structure is slightly different and the ID variable has been removed.

6- Perform the test performed by the researcher. What conclusion do you get? Compare these conclusions you received when analyzing the data in point 4.

7- What's wrong with this method? Why do you get different conclusions when using the two different methods? Consider this based on the effectiveness goals and the uncertainty of the effect goals you get when using the two methods.

THESE TWO VARIABLES, TIME AND EF(ejection fraction) ARE PART OF EF2 SPSS FILE.

Answered for part 1

The data set EF1.SAV contains percentages of fractional fraction, made by 34 subjects in an imaginary clinical study. The efficacy fraction (EF) was calculated before and after treatment, given with the baseline and post variables, while ID is patient number.

Check if Baseline is a normally distributed variable.

Kolmogorov-Smirnov test value 0.209, P=0.001 which is < 0.05 level. The test is significant. The data is not normally distributed.

2- Calculate average and standard deviation for Baseline, and find a 95% confidence interval for the Baseline average.

5- Write a short summary of what you found.

Paired sample t test is used. Calculated t=-4.938, P=0.000 which is < 0.05 level. Ho is rejected. We conclude that there is a significant difference between the Baseline and Post average.

A researcher who has not had any course in statistics analyzes the same data using a two-sample method. He considers the data from before and after treatment as if they came from two random sample of patients.

Since data are paired, we have to use dependent sample method. Paired sample t test is appropriate here to compare difference between the Baseline and Post average.
