Chapter 12: Q. 12.63 (page 510)

Step 1 of Procedure 13.2 gives generic statements for the null and alternative hypotheses of a chi-square independence test. Use the terms statistically dependent and statistically independent, introduced on page 496, to restate those hypotheses.

Short Answer

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 the 5% significance level, whether an association exists between the specified pair of variables.

type of employer and response

In each of Exercises 12.18-12.23, we have provided a distribution and the observed frequencies of the values of a variable from a simple random sample of a population. In each case, use the chi-square goodness-of-fit test to decide, at the specified significance level, whether the distribution of the variable differs from the given distribution.

Distribution: 0.2,0.1,0.1,0.3,0.3

Observed frequencies: 29,13,5,25,28

Significance level =0.10

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⋅n.

Loaded Die? A gambler thinks a die may be loaded, that is, that the six numbers are not equally likely. To test his suspicion, he rolled the die 150 times and obtained the data shown in the following table.

Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the die is loaded? Perform the hypothesis test at the 0.05 level of significance.

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.

Diabetes in Native Americans. Preventable chronic diseases are increasing rapidly in Native American populations, particularly diabetes. F. Gilliland et al. examined the diabetes issue in the paper "Preventative Health Care among Rural American Indians in New Mexico" (Preventative Medicine, Vol. 28, pp. 194-202). Following is a contingency table showing cross-classification of educational attainment and diabetic state for a sample of 1273 Native Americans (HS is high school).

At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that an association exists between education level and diabetic state for native Americans?
