Answer:

  • <em>About 34% of women will have levels between:</em>

<em>                                                             </em><u><em>     171 mg/dl and 207 mg/dl          </em></u>

Explanation:

You might find several intervals of <em>cholesterol levels</em> that contain about 34% of the women.

The easiest way is to find a symmetric interval. This is, with the same number of women below and above the mean.

Then, if <em>34% of the women</em> are within the interval, 100% - 34% = 66% are out of the interval.

For a symmetric interval, half of 66% would be above the median and half-below the median.

Thus, 33% above and 33% below the median.

Now, you can look up the Z-score in a standard normal distribution table.

There are two types of standard distribution tables: tables that show values that represent the AREA to the LEFT of the Z-score, and tables that show values that represent the AREA to the RIGHT of the Z-score.

Using the second, find the Z-score for a probability of 33%, i.e. 0.33, it is Z-score = 0.44.

That means that the interval must be - 0.44 < Z-score < 0.44

Now that you have the Z-score you can find the cholesterol levels:

For the upper level:

              Z-score=\frac{\text{cholesterol level-mean}}{\text{standard deviation}}

              Z-score=\frac{x-189}{40}

              0.44=\frac{x-189}{40}

               x=0.44\times 40+189=206.6

For the lower level:

            -0.44=\frac{x-189}{40}

              x=-0.44\times 40+189=171.4

Rounding to whole numbers the interval would be between 171 mg/dl and 207 mg/dl.

Many psychologists believe the disorganized thoughts of people with schizophrenia result from a breakdown in:
Mandarinka [93]

Many psychologists think that the medical model bias has broken down, which is why persons with schizophrenia have disorganized cognition.

Psychologists typically provide mental health and emotional support to patients, but they also do scientific research on the phenomenon of human (and non-human) behavior. They aim to improve these interactions by researching how people interact with both other people and machines. They focus particularly on actions that compromise the mental, emotional, and cognitive functioning of healthy people.

Psychologists use rigorous observation, experimentation, and analysis in their study in accordance with scientific principles. Through their study, they build theories of human behavior and put them to the test. Psychologists' discoveries become a part of the body of knowledge that practitioners draw from when working with clients and patients as this study produces new information.
