– At baseline, how much variation in participant cholesterol levels (variable: totchol1) could be explained by the variation in an individual’s BMI (variable: bmi1)?
Interpret the results of your statistical tests (chi-square, correlation, and regression) for each research question
– Consider associated caveats and limitations.
Determine the practical, public health-related implications of your statistical tests (chi-square, correlation, and regression).
– What evidence do you have that validates your conclusions?
