b) Does a pollster's gender have an effect on poll responses by men? A U.S. News & World Report article about polls stated: "On sensitive issues, people tend to give 'acceptable' rather than honest responses; their answers may depend on the gender or race of the interviewer." To support that claim, data were provided for an Eagleton Institute poll in which surveyed men were asked if they agreed with this statement: "Abortion is a private matter that should be left to the woman to decide without government intervention." We will analyze the effect of gender on male survey subjects only. Table is based on the responses of surveyed men. Gender of Interviewers Women 308 92 Men 560 Men who agree Men who disagree 240 Assume that the survey was designed so that male interviewers were instructed to obtain 800 responses from male subjects, and female interviewers were instructed to obtain 400 responses from male subjects. Using a 0.05 significance level, test the claim that the proportions of responses are the same for the subjects interviewed by men and the subjects interviewed by women. Use contingency analysis method. (20)
