Overview
1. Introduction needs references
2. Introduction lacks specific objectives
3.Methods did not completely describe the variables...showing their types, measurement levels, ect. 4.There needs to be a clear statistical analysis section that states specifically the statistical analysis you did. 5.Results do not seem to see any categorical variables summarized.
This part two to add to the paper.
1. For the low blood lead level group of children, is the average blood lead level greater than the recent CDC threshold of 10 ?g /100ml in 1972 as well as in 1973? a. State the hypotheses. b. Plot the distribution of blood lead levels in 1972 and 1973 using histograms. c. State your decision rule. d. Report the test statistic, p-value, mean, and 95% CI for the mean BLL in 1972 and in 1973. e. Interpret the results and state your conclusions.
2. Are the average blood lead levels different between children who spent the first 2 years of life within a mile of the smelter as compared to children who did not in 1972 as well as in 1973? a. State the hypotheses. b. Plot distribution of blood lead levels for each group using a boxplot for 1972 and for 1973 data. c. State your decision rule. d. Report the test statistics, p-values, means, and 95% CI’s for the difference between mean blood lead levels of children living near the smelter during their first 2 years and those who did not in 1972, and in 1973. e. Interpret the results and state your conclusions.
3. Is there a difference between the 1972 and 1973 average blood lead levels among the children? a. State the hypotheses. b. Plot the distribution of blood lead levels in 1972 and 1973 for each group using a boxplot. c. State your decision rule. d. Report the test statistics, p-values, means, and 95% CI’s for the average change in blood lead level for each of the two groups of children. e. Interpret the results and state your conclusions.
