Attend an early intervention programme

Reference no: EM131066629

A study finds, using a logit analysis, that there is a statistically significant 6% increase in the probability that a child will have a measles immunization if they attend an early intervention programme. The p-value for this estimate is .05. The government has stated that the programme is cost-effective if it can raise the probability of an immunization by 3%. The authors of the study then claim that the statistically significant estimate of 6% shows that the programme should be continued. Do you agree? Comment on your answer.
