A study measured the Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV, a measure of lung capacity for which higher numbers mean more lung capacity) on several school children ranging in age from 6 to 18. The study also asked the children if the are or have been smokers. Surprisingly the average FEV computed for smokers is higher than the average FEV for non-smokers. Which of the following should we consider when interpreting results from this study:
- A.
Since this is an observational study, we can conclude that smoking causes an increase in FEV
- B.
Age and height might be lurking variables because older kids will have larger lungs and will be more likely to smoke.
- C.
Since this is a designed experiment, we can conclude that smoking causes an increase in FEV
- D.
The study results are different from what was expected and therefore we should conclude that there is no relationship between smoking and FEV.
- E.
Children should not smoke and therefore the study must be invalid.

Cannot be calculated.
Correct Answer
A. 0.0994Explanation
z=(8-10.05)/12.12= -0.17
z=(11-10.05)/12.12= 0.08
From the Normal Table,
the percentage to the left of z=0.08 is 0.5319
the percentage to the left of z= -.17 is 0.4325
the percentage between the z-scores is =.5319 - 0.4325 = 0.0994Rate this question:
