Exercise 6.5 During flu season, the administrators at a walk-in health clinic want to determine if providing patients with a pamphlet or a video will increase their receptivity to flu shots. Each patient will be given a ticket at the check-in desk with a 1, 2, or 3 on it; the tickets will be issued in (repeating) sequence. Once escorted to the exam room, patients with number 1 tickets will serve as control participants and will not be offered any flu shot informational material. Patients with number 2 tickets will be given a flu shot information pamphlet. Patients with number 3 tickets will be shown a brief video covering the same information as contained in the pamphlet. At the end of the day, the charts will be reviewed and three entries made in the database: total number of flu shots given to patients in Group 1, total number of flu shots given to patients in Group 2, and total number of flu shots given to patients in Group 3.
