A two factor research study is used to evaluate with blood pressure with medication and exercise. In this two factors study factor A1 is medication Q; A2 is medication Z; A three is no medication B1 is aerobic exercises; B2 is running and B3 is cardio exercise. The expectation is any exercise will reduce blood pressure but that only medication Q will reduce blood pressure. What Pattern of results should be obtained should expectations be correct

A two-factor research study is used to evaluate the effectiveness of a new blood pressure medication. In this two-factor study, factor A is medication versus no medication, and factor B is male versus female. The medicine is expected to reduce blood pressure for both males and females, but it is expected to have a much greater effect for males. What pattern of results should be obtained if the medication works as predicted? A) There is no interaction B) There is an interaction C) More information is needed to determine the interaction

A study was conducted to determine whether lifestyle changes could replace medication in reducing blood pressure among hypertensives. The factors considered were a healthy diet with an exercise program, the typical dosage of medication for hypertension, and no intervention. The pre-treatment body mass index (BMI) was also calculated because it is known to affect blood pressure. The response considered in this study(a) Fit an appropriate model using the data above. Does it appear that exercise and diet could be effectively used to lower blood pressure? Explain your answer from the results. (b) Would exercise and diet be an effective alternative to medication? (Hint. You may wish to form the model in more than one way to answer both of these questions.)

A medical researcher wants to determine whether exercising can lower blood pressure. At a health fair, he measures the blood pressure of 100 individuals, and interviews them about their exercise habits. He divides the individuals into two categories: those whose typical level of exercise is low, and those whose level of exercise is high. a) Is this a controlled experiment or an observational study? b) The subjects in the low exercise group had considerably higher blood pressure, on the average, than subjects in the high exercise group. The researcher concludes that exercise decreases blood pressure. Is this conclusion well-justified? Explain.
