Let kids denote the number of children ever born to a woman, and let educ
denote years of education for the woman. A simple model relating fertility
to years of education is:
kids; = Bo + B1educ; + uż.
1. What are the parameters in the model?
2. What kinds of factors are contained in u? Are these likely to be cor-
related with level of education?
3. Will a simple regression analysis uncover the ceteris paribus effect of
education on fertility? Explain.
Which of the non-parametric test for ordinal data is the best to use in the given scenario?
An experiment was conducted to compare the strengths of two types of elastic bandages: one a standard bandage of a specified weight and the other the same standard but treated with a chemical substance. Ten pieces of each were randomly selected from production. Does the treated bandage tend to be stronger than the standard?

In a study by Zuckerman and Heneghan, hemodynamic stresses were measured on subjects undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. An outcome variable of interest was the ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) measured in mm. A portion of the data appears in the following table. Baseline refers to a measurement taken 5 minutes after induction of anesthesia, and the term '5 minutes' refers to a measurement taken 5 minutes after baseline. Can we conclude that, on the basis of these data, among subjects undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, the average LVEDV levels change? Let a =.01.
