Topic: ANOVA Our topic is about the Analysis of Variance(ANOVA). This is use to compare means of 3 or more populations. You may encounter the word treatment. Treatment is a cause or specific source of variation in a set of data. Here are the assumptions: 1. the three or more population of interest are normally distributed. 2. These pop have equal standard deviation [pic]. 3. The sample we select from each of the population are random and independent. Test: F ratio

To understand medication errors and to identify preventive strategies, we need to classify them and define the terms that describe them. The four main approaches to defining technical terms consider etymology, usage, previous definitions, and the Ramsey–Lewis method (based on an understanding of theory and practice). A medication error is ‘a failure in the treatment process that leads to, or has the potential to lead to, harm to the patient’. Prescribing faults, a subset of medication errors,

Correlation Correlation is a statistical technique that can show whether and how strongly pairs of variables are related. For example, height and weight are related; taller people tend to be heavier than shorter people. The relationship isn't perfect. People of the same height vary in weight, and you can easily think of two people you know where the shorter one is heavier than the taller one. Nonetheless, the average weight of people 5'5'' is less than the average weight of people 5'6'', and their

) −1 < x < 1 0 otherwise ∞ f (x) = (a) What is the value of c? We know that for f (x) to be a probability distribution −∞ f (x)dx = 1. We integrate f (x) with respect to x, set the result equal to 1 and solve for c. 1 1 = −1 c(1 − x2 )dx cx − c x3 3 1 −1 = = = = c = Thus, c = 3 4 c c − −c + c− 3 3 2c −2c − 3 3 4c 3 3 4 .
