Part A. SPSS AssignmentIn this exercise, you are playing the role of a researcher that is testing new medication designed to improve cholesterol levels. When examining cholesterol in clinical settings, we look at two numbers: low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). You may have heard these called “good” (HDL) and “bad” (LDL) cholesterol. For LDL, lower numbers are better (below 100 is considered optimal. For HDL, 60 or higher is optimal. 

In this experiment, the researcher is testing three different versions of the new medication. In data file “Activity 12.sav” you will find the following variables: group (0=control, 1=Drug A, 2=Drug B, 3=Drug C), LDL, and HDL (cholesterol numbers of participants after 12 weeks). 

Using a MANOVA, try to ascertain which version of the drug (A, B or C) shows the most promise. Perform the following analyses, and paste the SPSS output into your document.

  1. Exploratory Data Analysis.
    1. Perform exploratory data analysis on the relevant variables in the dataset. When possible, include appropriate graphs to help illustrate the dataset.
    2. Give a one to two paragraph write up of the data once you have done this.
    3. Create an APA style table that presents descriptive statistics for the sample.
  2. Perform a MANOVA. Using the “Activity 12.sav” data set perform a MANOVA. “Group” is your fixed factor, and LDL and HDL are your dependent variables. Be sure to include simple contrasts to distinguish between the drugs (group variable). In the same analysis, include descriptive statistics, and parameter estimates. Finally, be certain to inform SPSS that you want post-hoc test to help you determine which drug works best.
    1. Is there any statistically significant difference in how the drugs perform? If so, explain the effect. Use the post hoc tests as needed.
    2. Write up the results using APA style and interpret them.

Data set has been attached to post.

I need some assistance with these assignment. the tale of heike and the iliad Thank you in advance for the help! Homer wrote The Iliad. Homer is called the “father of all poetry,” and The Iliad, as a “masterpiece for all time” (Weigel 3). Tradition says that Homer was a Greek of Asia Minor (Weigel 3). Herodotus thinks that Homer lived in the eighth century BCE, which could be right, because of the existence of modern scholarship and archeology during this time (Weigel 3). Homer combined legends about the siege of Troy and familiar oral stories about the Greeks to write The Iliad. Homer himself could not have transcribed the two other epics that people attribute to him, “but it is probable that he gave the poems their present shape” (Weigel 3). Heike and The Iliad are orally presented, instead of being read. Heike is sung for oral performance, and this is similar to The Iliad which is also orally performed. Unlike The Iliad, Heike has significant Buddhist influence, with Buddhist scripture pervading its prose. At the same time, Heike is sung as part of religious chanting, which makes it a “different form of oral composition than extemporaneous poetic composition”(Tosa 6). Heike, furthermore, is not the same epic as The Iliad, because it also has Japanese song rhythm. The Iliad is also religious in a sense, because it affirms the power of the gods over people. It is not a poetic prose like Heike. The gods are greatly humanized in this epic, because they take human shapes and passions. They have super powers, but they are also human-like, because they eat, fornicate, lie, cheat, change their minds, and protect their favorites (Weigel 4). Their system is both loose and structured like the humans, since they also oppose each other and Zeus (Weigel 4). Heike and The Iliad have similar plots. Both of them are about wars and changing political orders.

In order to increase your understanding of this case study, the practical class will provide the opportunity to view anatomical models and receive guidance from an anatomy tutor. You also have all of your lecture notes, the course textbook/Mastering Biology, and your own tutor as additional resources. You will aim to identify concepts related to the structure and function of the 4 biological systems covered, and integrate this information into a concept map that demonstrates the responses and interactions in the body of the case study patient. By the end of this practical, you should be able to: ✓ Recall and demonstrate your understanding of basic cellular events (e.g. release of hormones & neurotransmitters). Apply this understanding to the 4 biological systems covered (and others). Qualitatively describe the relationship between the 4 systems (e.g. cardiac output and kidney function). Visually depict those relationships using a concept map. Evaluate those relationships and explain a possible biological cause for the symptoms of your patient.
