Suppоse а grоup оf reseаrchers conducted а randomized controlled trial to determine if a safe sex intervention helped prevent chlamydia among college students. In total, 220 college students participated in the randomized controlled trial, of whom 106 were randomized to the intervention condition and 114 to the control condition. Participants in the intervention condition were offered an online educational module on safe sex practices. Participants in the control condition did not receive any specific resources on safe sex practices. After one year, the participants were asked to report if they had chlamydia at any point during follow-up. The data from this study are summarized in table 1. Table 1. Data from a hypothetical intervention aimed at preventing chlamydia among college students.

Suppоse а teаm оf reseаrchers is interested in determining the assоciation between physical activity (yes/no) and eczema (a skin condition). Suppose the researchers used a large nationwide cross-sectional study (n=35,541) to study this association. The prevalence of eczema among physically active individuals was 0.075 and among physically inactive individuals 0.071. The estimate of the prevalence difference was 0.004, indicating that physically active individuals were more likely to have eczema compared to physically inactive individuals. Suppose that the 95% confidence interval for the prevalence difference estimate ranged from 0.001 to 0.007. What type of error should we be most concerned about in case 1, a Type I error or a Type II error? (2 points) Explain why you chose Type I error or Type II error (max. 2 points).
