    This document summarizes an experiment that measured the peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) of 9 asthmatics before and after walking on a cold winter's day. It records the PEFR measurements for each subject before and after the walk. It then performs a t-test to compare the means, finding a significant difference between the before and after measurements with a p-value less than 0.05. This supports the alternative hypothesis that the population mean PEFR is different before and after the cold walk.

    Exercise 3.

    Name: CASCARO, CYNDI O. 2BSE-FILIPINO B1

    Comparison of peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR ) before and after a walk on a cold
    winter’s day for a random sample of 9 asthmatics. Enter two columns in the
    workbook, one of there PEFR’s before the walk and the other of PEFR after the walk.
    In this example each row must represent the same subject.

    Null Hypothesis: The population mean has no something different between before
    and after walk on a cold.

    Alternative Hypothesis: The population mean has something different between


    before and after walk on a cold.

    Subject Before After D D

    1 312 300 -12 1945.79

    9 290 231 -59 8.35

    ∑D=-56.11 ∑D=9342.89

    Computation for t:
    Decision:
    The value of t is -4.925774. the value of p is .00116. the result is significant at
    p<.05,therefore we accept alternative hypothesis.
    Conclusion:
    The result is significant at p<.05, which means there is something difference
    between the comparison of peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) before and after a walk
    on a cold winter’s day.
