Nutrition education programs, which teach their clients how to lose weight or reduce cholesterol levels through better eating patterns, have been growing in popularity. The nurse in charge of one such program at a local hospital wanted to know whether the programs actually work. Random sample of 33 clients who attended a nutrition education program for those with elevated cholesterol levels was drawn.

The study recorded the weight, cholesterol levels, total dietary fat intake per average day, total dietary cholesterol intake per average day, and percent of daily calories from fat. These data were gathered both before and 3 months after the program. The researches also determined the gender, age and eight of the clients.

There are five variables that were measured, but answer each question below for the following two variables.

• cholesterol level

• fat intake

Questions

1. In terms of each variable (cholesterol level, fat intake), is the program a success?
2. Does the average change over the course of the study for each variable (cholesterol level, fat intake) for males differ from the average change for females?
3. Does age impact the change in each variable (cholesterol level, fat intake) over the course of the study?
