QUESTION: Prior to a study to investigate a new asthma drug, pulmonary function was tested in a group of 144 individuals with exercise-induced asthma. The mean value of forced vital capacity in the sample was 2.5 litres with sample standard deviation 0.55 litres.
- Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean value of forced vital capacity in individuals with exercise-induced asthma.
- Estimate how large a sample would be needed in order to reduce the width of the interval to 0.1 litres.
- It is known that the mean value of forced vital capacity amongst the whole population is 2.65 litres. Test at the 1% level whether the data provides significant evidence that sufferers of exercise-induced asthma have reduced forced vital capacity.
