Reserve Problems Chapter 13 Section 2 Problem 2
An article in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine compared the ability to detect acute
traumatic aortic injury (ATAI) on cervical x-ray images. The data consisted of 13 cases of ATAI,
19 cases with negative aortography (NAO) and 18 cases with multiple trauma (MT) without
aortography. Measurements of the cervical soft-tissue width at the third cervical vertebrae
generated the following results. Averages were 9.9, 9.2 and 7.4 mm and standard deviations were
3.6, 2.4 and 1.5 mm for the ATAI, NAO, and MT groups, respectively. Consider an ANOVA for
these data.
a) Use the sample sizes and group averages to compute the grand mean width and the mean
square for treatments.
b) Use the sample sizes and standard deviations in the groups to compute the mean square error.
c) Use the results in the previous parts to conduct the ANOVA test and prove that the mean
widths do not differ. Calculate the P-value for the test.

In the book Analysis of Longitudinal Data, 2nd ed., (2002, Oxford University Press), by Diggle,
Heagerty, Liang,and Zeger, the authors analyzed the effects of three diets on the protein content
of cow’s milk. The data shown here were collected after one week and include 25 cows on the
barley diet and 27 cows each on the other two diets:

An article in Fuel Processing Technology described an experiment to investigate the effect of
potassium hydroxide in synthesis of biodiesel. It is suspected that potassium hydroxide (PH) is
related to fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) which are key elements in biodiesel. Three levels of
PH concentration were used, and six replicates were run in a random order. Data are shown in
the following table:
