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.

Before approaching TheReliableTutor.com, zoology was one of the most difficult things in my life. But after taking sessions from TheReliableTutor.com, zoology has become more fun and more interesting to learn. Thank you guys..!!!

I must say that the random variable assignment experts here in HwA can surely make the numbers talk. I was given a sheet of data to analyze and honestly I had no clue whatsoever on how to approach. When I came to them they explained me the concept of discrete random variables (as the data was of an outcome of random test on some microorganism) and helped me analyze the same. My teacher at college was very impressed and since then I take help from HwA.

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
