Probability plays a major role in the medical community. Diagnoses are based on probabilities. They are really questions or “what if’s”, and are answered by the probability<\/strong> that the treatment will be the best for the ailment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s look at probability in terms of both the real world and the medical community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Survey 30 people to find out if they are left-handed or right-handed, and use the following chart to create a contingency table with the information.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Left handed Right handed Total Female Male Total<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Answer the following questions about the information in your contingency table:
      1. If a person is randomly selected from the survey participants, what is the probability that the person will be left-handed?<\/li>
      2. If you randomly choose a female from the people you surveyed, what is the probability that she is left-handed?<\/li>
      3. What is the odds ratio of choosing a left-handed female<\/strong>?<\/li>
      4. What is the relative risk of choosing a left-handed female<\/strong>?<\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Example<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         <\/td>Green<\/td>Blue<\/td>Total<\/td><\/tr>
        Cats<\/td>40 (A)<\/td>20 (B)<\/td>60 (A+B)<\/td><\/tr>
        Dogs<\/td>30 (C)<\/td>40 (D)<\/td>70 (C+D)<\/td><\/tr>
        Total<\/td>70 (A+C)<\/td>60 (B+D)<\/td>130 (A+B+C+D)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        1. Probability of Green – (A+C)\/(A+B+C+D): 70\/130 = 0.54<\/li>
        2. Probability of Green Cat – A\/(A+B): 40\/60 = 0.67<\/li>
        3. Odds Ratio of Green Cat – (A\/B)\/(C\/D) or AD\/BC: (4040)\/(2030) = 1600\/600 = 2.67<\/li>
        4. Relative Risk of Green Cat – [A\/(A+C)]\/[B\/(B+D)]: (40\/70)\/(20\/60) = 1.71<\/li>
        5. Skim through at least one of the following articles on left-handed vs. right-handed people from the Chamberlain Library. Answer the following question: How do the probabilities and percentages for your study compare to those in the study you read?
