MATH 160 Cuyamaca College Statistics Treating Depression Lab Part 1 & Excel Sheet
Some features of this activity may not work well on a cell phone or tablet. We highly recommend that you complete this activity on a computer.
Use the rubric at the bottom of this page as a guide for completing this assignment.
A list of StatCrunch directions is provided after the Prompt section below.
Directions
Submit your work:
Carefully read all sections below (beginning with the Context section and ending with the Prompt section).
Commit a good-faith effort to address all items in the Prompt section below. Please be sure to number your responses.
If directed to do so, embed all required StatCrunch output in your initial submission. Please do not submit StatCrunch output as an attachment.
Complete your assigned peer reviews:
After you submit your initial good-faith attempt, continue to the ANSWER(S) page and review your instructor's response. But please do not submit your corrected work yet.
Within three days after the due date, return to this assignment and complete your assigned peer reviews (directions (Links to an external site.)).
Submit your corrected work:
We all learn from mistakes (our own and our classmates' mistakes). So please do not immediately correct your own mistakes. If possible, wait until you receive feedback from at least one of your peers.
If necessary, correct your work and resubmit the entire assignment - including any required StatCrunch output. Your instructor will only review and grade your most recent submission, so please do not refer to a previous submission.
Context
Clinical depression is a recurrent illness requiring treatment and often hospitalization. Nearly 50% of people who have an episode of major depression will have a recurrence within 2-3 years. Being able to prevent the recurrence of depression in people who are at risk for the disease would go a long way to alleviate the pain and suffering of patients.
During the 1980's the federal government, through the National Institutes of Health (NIH), sponsored a large clinical trial to evaluate two drugs for depression. There were 3 treatment groups. Patients received either Imipramine (Imip), Lithium (Li), or a Placebo (Pl). Researchers randomly assigned patients to one of the 3 treatment groups and followed them for 2-4 years to track any recurrences of depression.
(Prien et al., Archives of General Psychiatry, 1984).
Variables
Hospt: Which hospital the patient was from: Labeled 1, 2, 3, 5 or 6
Treat: 0=Lithium; 1=Imipramine; 2=Placebo
Outcome: 0=Success 1=Failure (recurrence of depression)
Time: Number of weeks until a recurrence (if outcome=1) or until study ended (if outcome=0)
AcuteT: How long the patient was depressed before the start of the current study, measured in days
Age: Age in years
Gender: 1=Female 2=Male
Data
If you have not done so already, download the depression datafile (as always, if a login box opens, just close it and then download the file). Then upload the file in StatCrunch.
Prompt
We will analyze the data to answer the second research question: Which of the drugs (if either) delayed the recurrence of depression longer relative to the placebo?
In the previous lab-preparation activity, we identified Treat as the explanatory variable and Time as the response variable. We also determined that we will analyze the data using side-by-side boxplots and descriptive statistics (i.e. 5-number summaries since the graphs are boxplots).
Make graphs and tables.
Use StatCrunch to produce side-by-side boxplots. (directions)
Embed your graphs with your initial post.
Use StatCrunch to produce the descriptive statistics (a single table containing the 5-number summaries for each comparison group). (directions)
Copy and paste the StatCrunch output table into your initial post.
Analyze the data: Compare the distributions for the treatment groups as demonstrated in Unit 2. For example, compare medians and intervals of typical values. Describe the shape and any outliers. Be sure to write your comparisons so the reader can understand the context of the numbers. For example, don't just say the median is 30; instead, say something like this: on average patients taking the placebo relapsed in 30 days (Q2=30 days).
Draw a conclusion: What can we conclude from your analysis? Did one drug successfully delay a relapse of depression better than the others? What evidence supports your conclusion?
Summarize your conclusions in response to both research questions: In this lab you compared three treatments (two drugs and the placebo) using two different variables. In Part 1 you compared whether or not a relapse into depression occurred for each of the two drugs and the placebo. In Part 2 you compared the length of time until the next relapse for the two drugs and the placebo. What can you conclude in light of both analyses? Is one treatment better than the other? How does the data support your conclusion?
