Nutritional intake among Canadian high-performance athletes. Since previous studies have reported that elite athletes are often deficient in their nutritional intake (for example, total calories, carbohydrates, protein), a group of 23 researchers decided to evaluate Canadian high-performance athletes. A total of n = 324 athletes from eight Canadian sports centers participated in the study. One reported finding was that the average caloric intake among the n = 201 women was 2403.7 kilocalories per day (kcal/d). The recommended amount is 2811.5 kcal/d. Is there evidence that female Canadian athletes are deficient in caloric intake?
(a) State the appropriate H0 and Ha to test this.
(b) Assuming a standard deviation of 880 kcal/d, carry out the test. Give the P-value, and then interpret the result in plain language.
