Fear of Gangs. In the article "Growing Pains and Fear of Gangs" (Applied Psychology in Criminal Justice, Vol. 5, No. 2, pp. 139-164), B. Brown and W. Benedict examined the relationship between worry about a gang attack and actually being a victim of a gang attack. Interviews of a sample of high school students yielded the following contingency table.

The U.S. Census Bureau publishes census data on the resident population of the United States in Current Population Reports. According to that document, 7.3% of male residents are in the age group20鈭�24 years.
a. If there is no association exists between age group and gender, what percentage of the resident population would be in the age group20鈭�24 years? Explain your answer.
b. If there is no association exists between age group and gender, what percentage of female residents would be in the age group20鈭�24 years? Explain your answer.
c. There are about 158million female residents of the United States. If no association exists between age group and gender, how many female residents would there be in the age group20鈭�24 years?
d. In fact, there are some 10.2 million female residents in the age group20鈭�24 years. Given this number and your answer to part (c), what do you conclude?

Road Rage. The report Controlling Road Rage: A Literature Review and Pilot Study was prepared for the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety by D. Rathbone and. Huckabee. The authors discussed the results of a literature review and pilot study on how to prevent aggressive driving and road rage. Road rage is defined as an incident in which an angry or impatient motorist or passenger intentionally injures or kills another motorist, passenger, or pedestrian, or attempts or threatens to injure or kill another motorist, passenger, or pedestrian." One aspect of the study was to investigate road rage as a function of the day of the week. The following table provides a frequency distribution for the days on which 69 road-rage incidents occurred.

Day

At the significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that road-rage incidents are more likely to occur on some days than on others?

Table 12.4 on page 486 showed the calculated sums of the observed frequencies, the expected frequencies, and their differences. Strictly speaking, those sums are not needed. However, they serve as a check for computational errors.

a) In general, what common value should the sum of the observer frequencies and the sum of the expected frequencies equal? Ex plain your answer.

b) Fill in the blank. The sum of the differences between each observed and expected frequency should equal

c) Suppose that you are conducting a chi-square goodness-of-fit test. If the sum of the expected frequencies does not equal the sample size, what do you conclude?

d) Suppose that you are conducting a chi-square goodness-of-fit test. If the sum of the expected frequencies equals the sample size, can you conclude that you made no error in calculating the expected frequencies? Explain your answer.

In given exercise use either the critical-value approach or the P-value approach to perform a chi square independence lest. provided the conditions for using the test are met.

Siskel In the classic TV show Sneak Previews, originally hosted by the late Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert, the two Chicago movie critics reviewed the weeks new movie releases and

then rated them thumbs up (positive), mixed, thumbs down (negative). These two critics often saw the merits of a movie differently. In general, however, were ratings given by Siskel and Ebert

associated? The answer to this question was the focus of the paper "Evaluating Agreement and Disagreement Among Movie Reviewers" by A. Agresti and L. Winner that appeared in Chance

(Vol- 10(2), pp-10-14). The following contingency table summarizes ratings by Siskel and Ebert for 160 movies.

At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that an association exists between ratings of Siskel and Ebert?
