Finding Feasible Statistical Study Methods
Question
A study is planned to study whether passive smoking (being exposed to secondhand cigarette smoke on a regular basis) leads to higher rates of lung cancer.
a) One possible study is to take a sample of children, randomly select half of them for placement in an environment where they are passive smokers, and place the other half in an environment where they are not exposed to smoke. Then 60 years later the observation is whether each has developed lung cancer. Would this study be an experimental study or an observational study (natural experiment)? Why?
b) For many reasons, including time and ethics, it is not possible to conduct the study in (a). Describe a way that is possible, and indicate whether it would be an experimental or observational (natural experiment) study.
Summary
The question belongs to Statistics and it is about a study on whether passive smoking can lead to high rates of cancer. Two possible ways of study have been suggested and from them, the most feasible method needs to be selected.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
1. As my parents are both cost accountants, I thought that accounting is my blood. However, everything is not that easy as I often failed to match my trial balance and was finding it problematic to write my cash-flow statements. I knew I need assistance apart from the help that I get from my accounting professor. So when I saw HelpwithAssignment.com, I was happy as they helped me solve my accounting homework. I even got good grades now.

I was apprehensive at first about using an online tutoring service that too for a subject as critical as mechanical engineering. But once I gave it a try I know that I need not have worried. The tutors at HelpwithAssignment.com are totally in sync with what is required by me. So we are in a good place

The reference material and notes provided by the online electrical engineering tutor assigned to me by HwA was exactly what I was looking for. Keeping up with the course load is difficult enough without having to run from pillar to post searching for research material. The online electrical engineering tutor at HwA made my work much easier by providing me high quality reference material which met the specifications given by my professor.

I would have never known that placing the patient in semi-Flower’s position and resting the head and neck with sandbags or small pillows prevents hyperextension of the neck and protects integrity of the suture line for post thyroidectomy patients if not for HwA. I owe a lot to this nursing intervention assignment help unit of this website and it is indeed very rare to find dedicated experts dealing with specific things like this.
Joe Shipley Student
The timely delivery and extensive research work done by the annotated bibliography writing expert was very impressive. Also I was very happy at being able to reach the expert at any time of the day for any additions, suggestions, or queries I had. A big thank you to the effort and time given to my annotated bibliography assignment.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
