A) Identify the question, population, and sample.

b) Discuss any potential bias or lurking variables that may affect the results.?
c) Write about the extent to which we can generalize the findings to all people who use cell phones.

Stewart Fist reported the results of an experiment investigating the link between cell phone use and tumors in mice. The study exposed one hundred mice to cell phone radiation for two half-hour periods each day over eighteen months. The researchers fitted another hundred mice with the same type of antennas, which never had the power turned on. the tumor rate was twice as high in the group than in the unexposed group.

Wow!!! why are you working with the public being so rude. I didn't see the later response...I think you need to find a factory job where you don't haver to deal with people....more like machines....You have absolutly NO! people skills!!!! RUDE!RUDE!RUDE!!

a) The question in this study is whether there is a link between cell phone use and tumors in mice. The population being studied is mice. The sample consists of one hundred mice that were exposed to cell phone radiation and another hundred mice fitted with the same type of antennas, but without the power turned on.

b) There are a few potential biases and lurking variables that may affect the results of this study. Firstly, there could be selection bias in the choice of mice used in the experiment. If the mice were not randomly selected, it could introduce a bias and affect the generalizability of the results. Secondly, there is a possibility of measurement bias. It is crucial to ensure that the exposure to cell phone radiation was accurately measured and consistent for all the mice. Any inconsistencies can affect the reliability of the results. Additionally, the time frame of the experiment (18 months) may not accurately reflect the long-term effects of cell phone radiation, as the development of tumors could take longer. Other lurking variables, such as genetics or other environmental factors, could also influence tumor development and introduce confounding variables.

c) The findings of this study can only be generalized to mice and not directly to all people who use cell phones. Mice and humans have biological differences, and the effects of cell phone radiation on tumor development may vary between species. Additionally, this study only investigates the link between cell phone radiation and tumors in mice, so it does not provide direct evidence for the effects in humans. To determine the extent to which these findings can be generalized to people who use cell phones, further research specifically involving humans would be necessary.

What didn't you understand about what I posted earlier??
