Chapter 12: Q. 12.91 (page 512)

Job Satisfaction. A CNN/USA TODAY poll conducted by Gallul asked a sample of employed Americans the following question: "Which do you enjoy more, the hours when you are on your job, or the hours when you are not on your job?" The responses to this question were cross-tabulated against several characteristics, among which were gender, age, type of community, educational attainment, income, and type of employer. The data are provided on the WeissStats site. In each of Exercises 12.87-12.92, use the technology of your choice to decide, at the5%significance level, whether an association exists between the specified pair of variables.

income and response

Short Answer

Expert verified
The null hypothesis is rejected at 5% level.
Thus, there is an association exists between income and response at the 5% significance level.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

An association exists between the specified pair of variables income and response

The given significance=5%

02

Step 2. Check whether there is an association exists between the specified pair of variables or not.

The hypotheses are given below:
Null hypothesis:
H0 : There is no association exists between income and response.
Alternative hypothesis:
H1 : There is an association exists between income and response.

03

Step 3. Use MINITAB to obtain the test statistic and p-value. 

MINITAB procedure:
Step 1: Choose Stat > Tables > Chi-Square test for association.
Step 2: In Columns containing the table, enter the column of Under $20,000,$20,000-$29,999,$30,000-$49,999and $60,000and over.
Step 3: In Rows, select Response.
Step 4: Under Statistics, select Chi-square test, Display counts in each cell, Display marginal counts and expected cell counts.
Step 5: Click OK.

04

Step 4. MINTAB output

chi-square test for Association:RESPONSE,Worksheet columns

From the MINITAB output,the value of the chi-square statistic is16.634and the p-value is0.011

05

Step 5. Conclusion for the given question

Here, theP-value is lesser than the level of significance.
That is,P-value =0.011<伪==0.05.
Therefore, the null hypothesis is rejected at5%level.
Thus, there is an association exists between income and response at the5%significance level.

We stated earlier that, if two variables are not associated, ther eis no point in looking for a casual relationship. Why is that so?

Ancestry and Region. The U.S. Census Bureau collects information on the U.S. population by ancestry and region of residenc and publishes the results in American Community Survey. Accordin; to that document, 18 % of the population resides in the Northeast.

a. If ancestry and region of residence are not associated, wha percentage of Americans of Irish ancestry would reside in the Northeast?

b. There are roughly 37 million Americans of Irish ancestry. If ancestry and region of residence are not associated, how many Americans of Irish ancestry would reside in the Northeast?

c. There are, in fact, 9.25 million Americans of Irish ancestry who reside in the Northeast. Given this information and your answer to part (b), what can you conclude?

In each of the given Exercises, we have given the number of possible values for two variables of a population. For each exercise, determine the maximum number of expected frequencies that can be less than 5 in order that Assumption 2 of Procedure 12.2 on page 506 to be satisfied. Note: The number of cells for a contingency table with m rows and n columns is m鈰卬.

Deceptive News. In the article "When News Reporters Deceive: The Production of Stereotypes" (Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly, Vol. 84, No. 2, pp. 281-298), researchers D. Lasorsa and J. Dai investigated the relationship between authenticity and tone for news stories. Tone was measured by using a method of coding sentences and was categorized as positive, neutral, or negative. A sample of stories yielded the following data. At the 5% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that an association exists between authenticity and tone?
