Exercise 21.29 Melanoma
L. Naldi et al., "Pigmentary traits, modalities of sun reaction, history of sunburns, and melanocytic nevi as risk factors for cutaneous Malignant melanoma in the italian population: resluts of a collaborative case-control study," Cancer, 88 (2000), pp. 2703-2710. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 94B | 27 | Exercise 17.33 Cockroach
This example is based on information in D. L. Shankland et al., "The effect of 5-thio-D-glucose on insect development and its absorption by insects," Journal of Insect Physiology, 14 (1968), pp. 63-72. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 65B | 23 | Exercise 17.34 Trees
Data provided by Jason Hamilton, University of Illinois. The study is reported in E. H. DeLucia et al., "Net primary production of a forest ecosystem with experimental CO2 enhancement," Science, 284 (1999), pp. 1177-1179. Note that resampling methods cannot remove the variation due to random sampling of the original data. no method for inference can be trusted with n=3. In this study, each observation is very costly, so the small n is inevitable. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 70B | 30 | Exercise 17.35 Fungus
M. W. Peugh, "Field investigation of ventilation and air quality in duck and turkey slaughter plants," MS thesis, Purdue University, 1996. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 74B | 28 | Exercise 17.38 Oil
J. M. Jobe and H. Jobe, "A statistical approach for additional infill development," Energy Exploration and Exploitation, 18 (2000), pp 89-103, and Lake Michigan Federation, 2001 publication, "The case against new Great Lakes oil and gas drilling: Michigan fails to clean up oil and gas pollution," found at www.lakemichigan.org. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 395B | 27 | Exercise 17.39 Weeds
H. B. Meyers, "Investigations of the life history of the velvetleaf seed beetle, Althaeus folkertsi Kingsolver," MS thesis, Purdue University, 1996. The 95% t interval is 1227.9 to 2507.6. A 95% bootstrap BCa interval is 1444 to 2718, confirming that t inference is inaccurate for these data. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 186B | 21 | Exercise 17.40 Weed Control

A 95% bootstrap BCa interval is 1444 to 2718, confirming that t inference is inaccurate for these data. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 387B | 15 | Exercise 17.41 Evolution

Based on G. L. Cromwell et al., "A comparison of the nutritive value of opaque-2, foury-2 and normal corn for the chick," Poultry Science, 47 (1968), pp. 840-847. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 313B | 20 | | Exercise 14.37 Wood Strength | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 174B | 20 | | Exercise 14.38 Wine | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 62B | 22 | Exercise 16.30 Temperature
Data simulated from a Normal distribution with mu=98.2 and std=0.7. These values are based on P.A. Mackowiak et al., "A critical appraisal of 98.6 degrees F, the upper limit of the normal body temperature, and other legacies of Carl Reinhold August Wunderlick," Journal of the American Medical Association, 268, (1992), pp. 1578-1580. | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 171B | 21 | | Exercise 16.35 Wine | yes | bbeard@sc | Aug 11, 2008 | 156B | 14 | Exercise 16.36 Life Tables
