Question

We need to get in the habit of looking for these other variables, which explanations of the relationship found in a correlation. For the following, read the headline and some of the "facts" from the article. Does the data supports the headline? Think of the possible "third variables" that relationship. How could you reword the headline to more accurately reflect the data? Headline: "Diet of fish 'can prevent' teen violence. Participants were a group of 3-year-olds given an "enriched diet, exercise program." The enriched diet included large amounts of fish. This first group was compared to a control group that did not go through the same program. By age 23 the participants in the enriched diet program were, on average, 64% less likely than the control group of children not on the program to have any juvenile records. Note that the media article does not mention what the other kids ate. Respond to each of the following questions: 1. What two variables are related according to the headline? 2. Is this a positive or negative correlation? 3. Does the data support the headline? 4. What are some possible "third variable" explanations? 5. How could you reword the headline to better reflect the results of the study? Type your response to each of these questions below, in the text book or video format on the Media tab below.
