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?

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?"
