Question 1

Utilizes a null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis that have been analyzed – descriptive

What examine the correlation between 2 continuous variables  characterize a liner relationship  between dependent and independent variable  scatter plots

Answer 1

Population Health

Question 2

TRUE/FALSE: There is a correlation between sociodemographic and access to healthcare

Answer 2

TRUE

Question 3

Relationship between sociodemographic and population health

Answer 3

Age, Race, education

Question 4

TRUE/FALSE: Do we use hypothesis in Population Health

Answer 4

TRUE

Question 5

TRUE/FALSE: Utilizes a null (educated guess) hypothesis and alternative hypothesis (other than null) that have been analyzed

Answer 5

TRUE

Question 6

data elements captured by physicians that describe patient population and their access to healthcare, medication, shelter, food and water

Answer 6

Social Determinants of Health

Question 7

Question 8

The first type of analysis that should be conducted to familiarize yourself with the data

Answer 8

Descriptive Statistics

Question 9

Data that we are using to answer our research question

Commonly described by calculating the mean, median, standard deviation and range

Answer 9

Continuous Variables

Question 10

What occurs when data measure falls in a certain range?

Answer 10

Frequency of distribution

Question 11

An important step in the data analysis process is to determine if data; which refers to the probability of measures failing within a certain range.

Answer 11

Normal Distribution

Question 12

The statistical procedure adopted to handle continuous data; examines the correlation between 2 variables and is “used to characterize the linear relationship between a dependent and one independent variable”

Answer 12

Simple Linear Regression

Question 13

What occurs when all observations in a scatter plot fall in a direct line?

Answer 13

Best Fit Line

Question 14

Least squares regression - simple linear regression fits a straight line/through all of the data points

Answer 14

Best Fit Line

Question 15

Results indicate there is a significant relationship between US lead and infant birth weight-at all 3 levels of birth weight

Answer 15

Discussion-relationship between US lead and infant birth weight

Question 16

What’s the benefits of knowing the disease, age, and sociodemographic of your patient?

Answer 16

Aware of population health and population health needs.

Question 17
