Using significance tests to evaluate equivalence between two experimental groups.

James L. Rogers; Kenneth I. Howard; John T. Vessey

Equivalency testing, a statistical method often used in biostatistics to determine the equivalence of 2 experimental drugs, is introduced to social scientists. Examples of equivalency testing are offered, and the usefulness of the method to the social scientist is discussed.

Muscle Stretching as an Alternative Relaxation Training Procedure

Charles R. Carlson; Frank L. Collins; Arthur J. Nitz; Ellie T. Sturgis; James L. Rogers

The purpose of this program of research was to explore the use of muscle stretching procedures in relaxation training with a clinical population. In the first controlled study, stretching exercises for four muscle groups (obicularis occuli, sternocleidomastoid/trapezius, triceps/pectoralis major, and forearm/wrist flexors) were prepared. A group of people using these procedures (SR, N = 8) was compared to a group using the Bernstein and Borkovec (1973) tense-release (TR; N = 8) techniques for those same muscle groups, as well as compared to an appropriate group of controls (WL; N = 8). Assessment of physiological (multi-site EMG) and subjective (emotions, muscle tension, and self-efficacy) responses showed that persons in the SR displayed less sadness, less self-reported muscle tension at four sites, and less EMG activity on the r.masseter than persons in the TR group. In the second study, 15 subjects were administered an expanded version of the SR relaxation procedures. Results showed that all subjects reported significant decreases in self-reported levels of muscle tension; muscle tension responders showed lowered trapezius EMG and respiration rates and cardiovascular responders showed lowered diastolic blood pressure. The results are discussed in terms of the utility of relaxation procedures based primarily on muscle stretching exercises for lowering subjective and objective states of arousal.

Inner-city birth rates following enactment of the Minnesota parental notification law

James L. Rogers; Amy M. Miller

An increase in birth rates to Minneapolis minors following the enactment of a parental notification law was examined. A well-publicized link between increasing birth rates and the law is shown to have been premature. Birth, abortion, and population data by age, race, and region suggest that the increasing birth rate in Minneapolis was not related to parental notification, but rather to a growing racial minority population.

Carry-Over of Medical Information System Influence to Control Patients

James L. Rogers; Olga M. Haring; James F. Phifer

Evaluations of medical information systems (MIS) often compare one or more dependent variables between experimental patients having the MIS available and control patients. Typically, physicians who are exposed to and therefore are potentially influenced by the MIS during visits with experimental patients also see control patients, thus possibly weakening the internal validity of subsequent comparisons between the MIS and the control conditions. The present study examines the possible bias due to carry-over of MIS influence to control patients in the context of a prospective, randomized design.
