    Hi. I have an excel file with 130 responses..I need to put it in an spss version,,that is code the variables and have it clean. Just this.

  • Hi pleas I need help for my homework

    In this project, we’ll use our unique IAT random samples to demonstrate what we learned in Unit 4 (Module 11).

    WARNING: Since this project is equivalent to an exam, I will not be able to help you. However, you can still rely on your classmates for help, and I can answer clarification questions.

    Progress Check

    Use this activity to assess whether you can:

    • Describe the sampling distribution for sample proportions and use it to identify unusual (and more common) sample results.
    • Distinguish between a sample statistic and a population parameter.
    • Use StatCruch to find a confidence interval to estimate a population proportion when conditions are met.
    • Interpret the confidence interval in context.
    • Interpret the meaning of a confidence level and relate it to the margin of error when testing a claim.
    • Given a claim about a population, determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
    • Conduct a hypothesis test for a population proportion and state a conclusion in context.
    • Interpret the P-value as a conditional probability.
    • Recognize type I and type II errors and articulate the consequence of either error.

    Some features of this activity may not work well on a cell phone or tablet. We highly recommend that you complete this activity on a computer.

    A list of StatCrunch directions is provided at the bottom of this page.

    Context

    In 2015 college students at a large state university completed a survey about their academic and personal life. Questions ranged from “How many credits are you registered for this semester?” to “Would you define yourself as a vegetarian?”

    The researcher randomly selected 325 students from the university; 312 responded to the survey.

    Variables

    • Math: Math SAT score
    • Verbal: Verbal SAT score
    • Credits: Number of credits the student is registered for
    • Year: Year in college (1=Freshman, 2=Sophomore, 3=Junior, 4=Senior)
    • Exercise: Time (in minutes) spent exercising in a typical day
    • Sleep: Time (in hours) spent sleeping in a typical day
    • Veg: Are you a vegetarian (yes, no, some)
    • Cell: Do you own a smart phone (yes, no)

    Data

    Open the cell-phones datafile in the Stats at Cuyamaca College group on StatCrunch ( – opens in a new tab).

    Prompt

    Here is the research question for this lab.

    Based on a recent study, roughly 80% of college students in the U.S. own a smartphone. Is the proportion of smartphone owners lower at this university?

    Work through the questions below to identify the information you will need to answer this question.

    Question 12 / 2 pts

    What type of study is this?

    Correct. This is an observational study. The researchers gathered data through a survey.

    IncorrectQuestion 20 / 2 pts

    What is the goal of statistical inference for this study?

    Incorrect. The data involves a categorical variable, not a quantitative variable. Therefore, we are not concerned with a population mean in this study.

    PartialQuestion 30.75 / 2 pts

    Identify each variable as either relevant or not relevant to the research question; further classify the relevant variable(s) as either quantitative or categorical.

    Relevant; Categorical Verbal

    Relevant; Categorical

    Credits

    Not relevant to the question

    Year

    Not relevant to the question

    Exercise

    Relevant; Categorical

    Sleep

    Relevant; Categorical

    Veg

    Relevant; Quantitative

    Cell

    Relevant; Categorical

    IncorrectQuestion 40 / 2 pts

    Which of the following is the appropriate graph to summarize the data relevant to this question?

    Incorrect. A boxplot is a visual display of a quantitative variable. We use side-by-side boxplots to compare the distribution of a quantitative variable across multiple groups from a categorical variable. In other words, side-by-side boxplots are a meaningful display when we have a categorical variable and a quantitative variable such as gender (categorical) and wrist-girth (quantitative).

    Cell is a single categorical variable.

    IncorrectQuestion 50 / 2 pts

    Which of the following is the appropriate numerical summary of the data relevant to this question?

    Incorrect. We use descriptive statistics such as mean, median, standard deviation, IQR, etc. to describe the distribution of a single quantitative variable across multiple groups of a categorical variable.

    Cell is a single categorical variable.

    Three steps to complete the assignment

    Prompt

    The Pew Research Center reported in 2018 that 68% of U.S. adults rated “reducing health care costs” as a national priority. This year a survey is conducted with a national sample of 1,505 U.S. adults selected by a combination of landline and cell phone random digit dials. This year’s survey finds that 70% of the sample says that “reducing health care costs” is a national priority.

    We test the following hypotheses:

    : The proportion of U.S. adults this year who rate “reducing health care costs” as a national priority is still 0.68.

    : The proportion of U.S. adults this year who rate “reducing health care costs” as a national priority is greater than 0.68.

    The P-value is 0.045. At a 5% significance level, we would reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the proportion of U.S. adults this year who rate “reducing health care costs” as a national priority is greater than 0.68.

    Explain the P-value in the context of this issue.
