Case Study
Obesity in UAE
Obesity has become a major problem in the UAE. Over 60% of Emirati nationals are overweight. This is a difficult problem with many serious effects on the individual and country. The biggest effect is on the individual. First of all, being overweight has health risks. Obesity can lead to heart disease, diabetes, and other conditions. A study was conducted to determine the factors that might affect obesity. A random sample of 617 individuals was selected from different emirates and for each individual a number of variables are measured. These variables are given below:
Emirate: 1=Abu Dhabi, 2=Dubai, 3=Sharjah, 4=Ajman, 5=Al-Fujirah, 6=Ras AlKhaimah, and 7=Umm Al-qwain
Education: 1=less than high school, 2=high school, and 3=College
Gender: 1= Male, and 2=Female
Marital status: 1=Married, and 2=Unmarried
Weight: Weight in kg.
Height: Height in meter.
BMI: Body mass index BMI = (Weight(kg))/〖Height(m)〗^2
BMI group: 1=Underweight, 2=Normal weight, 3=Overweight, and 4=Obese
You should consider the following instructions when answering the case study question and preparing your report:
i)For confidence intervals
Check all assumptions.
Interpret the results.
Use a 0.95 confidence level
ii)For testing hypothesis:
State the null and alternative hypotheses.
Check the necessary assumptions.
Report the P-value and the test statistic.
Make a conclusion statement in the words of the original problem.
Use a 0.05 level of significance
iii)For the report
Should be typed.
On the first page, write the names, student numbers, and section numbers.
All pages must be stapled together.
Show all of your work.
The report should have the following item
