If the test gives a positive result for an infected person 98% of the time, that means that 2% of the time, it gives a negative result for an infected person, which would be a false negative.

If the test is 97% accurate for non-infected people, that means that it gives a negative result 97% of the time. So a positive result will be given 3% of the time for non-infected people, which is a false positive.

A study was conducted to measure the effectiveness of hypnotism in reducing pain. The measurements are centimeters on a pain sca

The confidence interval for mean of the "before-after" differences is $\fbox{(-0.4037,1.8037)}$

Further explanation:

Find the difference between the before pain and the after pain.

Difference = before-after

Kindly refer to the Table for the difference of between the before and after pain.

Sum of difference = $5.6$

Total number of observation = $8$

Mean of difference = $0.7$

Sample standard deviation $s$ = $1.3201$

Level of significance = $5\%$

Formula for confidence interval = $\left( \bar{X} \pm t_{n-1, \frac{\alpha}{2}\%} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} \right)$

confidence interval = $\left( 0.7 \pm t_{8-1, \frac{5}{2}\%} \frac{1.3201}{\sqrt{8}} \right)$

confidence interval = $\left( 0.7 \pm t_{7, \frac{5}{2}\%} \frac{1.3201}{\sqrt{8}} \right)$

From the t-table.

The value of $t_{7, \frac{5}{2}\%$ = $2.365$

Confidence interval = $( 0.7 \pm 2.365}\times \frac{1.3201}{\sqrt{8}}) \right)$

Confidence interval = $\left( 0.7 - 2.365}\times \0.4667,0.7 + 2.365}\times \0.4667) \right$

Confidence interval = $(0.7-1.1037,0.7+1.1037)$

Confidence interval = $\fbox{(-0.4037,1.8037)}$

The $95\%$ confidence interval tells us about that $95\%$ chances of the true mean or population mean lies in the interval.

Yes, the hypnotism appear to be effective in reducing pain as confidence interval include includes the positive deviation from the mean.
