99 Smoking and resting energy. The influence of cigarette smoking on resting energy expenditure (REE) in normalweight

Question:

99 Smoking and resting energy. The influence of cigarette smoking on resting energy expenditure (REE) in normalweight and obese smokers was investigated ( Health Psychology , Mar. 1995). The researchers hypothesized that the relationship between a smoker’s REE and length of time since smoking differs for these two types of smokers.

Consequently, they examined the interaction model

image text in transcribed

a. Give the equation of the hypothesized line relating mean REE to time after smoking for obese smokers.
What is the slope of the line?

b. Repeat part a for normal-weight smokers.

c. A test for interaction resulted in an observed significance level of .044. Interpret this value.
