... 1. According to a report by the U.S. government, the price of a six-pack of beer in the United States is $5 on average. According to research at www.cesar.umd.edu, increasing the price of alcohol reduces drinking and alcohol-related problems, including accidents, violence, and disease. The state of ...

Scientific Investigation: Statistical Analysis
... Any estimates of size or age we made from this biased sample would poorly represent the population we are trying to study. After collecting our sample, we can measure each individual and then use these measurements to develop an idea about the population. If we are interested in fish size, we could ...

Variance estimation with imputed data
... Almost always a survey includes unit non-response, and in many cases there is item nonresponse for certain variables as well. The matrix R(s) with random variables Rji (is, j=1, …, k) describes for each observation which variable values are observed. There might be underlying reasons and patterns w ...
