A University conducted a survey of its recent graduates to collect demographic and health information for future planning purposes as well as to assess students' satisfaction with their undergraduate experiences. The survey revealed that a substantial proportion of students were not engaging in regular exercise, many felt their nutrition was poor and a substantial number were smoking. In response to a question on regular exercise, 60% of all graduates reported getting no regular exercise, 25% reported exercising sporadically and 15% reported exercising regularly as undergraduates. The next year the University launched a health promotion campaign on campus in an attempt to increase health behaviors among undergraduates. The program included modules on exercise, nutrition and smoking cessation. To evaluate the impact of the program, the University again surveyed graduates and asked the same questions. The survey was completed by 470 graduates and the following data were collected on the exercise question: No Regular Sporadic Regular Total Exercise Exercise Exercise Number of 255 125 90 470 students

in 2021 Mulungushi University conducted a survey of its first year postgraduate students to collect demographic and health information for future planning purposes as well as to assess students' satisfaction with their postgraduate experiences. The survey revealed that a substantial proportion of students were not engaging in regular exercise whilst on campus, many felt their nutrition was poor (food prepared badly at the dining) and a substantial number were smoking (individual risk behaviors). In response to a question on regular exercise, 60% of all postgraduates reported getting no regular exercise, 25% reported exercising sporadically and 15% reported exercising regularly. In 2022, the University launched a health promotion campaign on campus in an attempt to increase health behaviors among postgraduate students. The program included modules on exercise, nutrition and smoking cessation. To evaluate the impact of the program, the MU again surveyed postgraduates and asked the same…

A sociologist wants to investigate the question, "Is there a relationship between texting during class and grade-point-average (GPA) among high school seniors in a large district?" Which study design is most appropriate? Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester, obtain each student’s GPA from the appropriate admissions and records office. Compare the GPA of students who routinely text during class to the GPA of students who do not text during class.

A 2015 New York Times/CBS News poll sampled 523 adults who were planning a vacation during the next six months and found that 141 were expecting to travel by airplane. A similar survey question in a May 2005 New York Times/CBS News poll found that of 477 adults who were planning a vacation in the next six months, 81 were expecting to travel by airplane. Let 2015 be population 1. State the hypotheses that can be used to determine whether a significant change occurred in the population proportion planning to travel by airplane over the 10-year period. Let 0.01 be the level of significance. Use α=0.01 and test for a significant difference. What is the value of the test statistic?
