Question:
Fever medication dosage. A pharmacist conducted an experiment to test the dosage of a new fever medicine FEVER needed to cure infants aged 6–12 months. They selected six infants who had about the same temperature. The minimum amounts of the drug (in ml) needed to reduce each infant’s temperature by .5°C half an hour after consuming the drug at three intervals in a day were recorded as: Infant 1 (.3, .2, .35), Infant 2 (.3, .35, .2), Infant 3 (.45, .25, .1), Infant 4 (.35, .2, .3), Infant 5 (.25, .3, .4), and Infant 6 (.4, .15, .35). Determine whether all the infants required the same minimum dosage to reduce their temperature by .5°C half an hour of consuming the drug. Conduct an ANOVA and make the proper inferences at a = .10.
