t of 4. A parent advisory board for a certain university was concerned about the effect of part-time jobs on the academic achievement of students attending the university. To obtain some information, the advisory board surveyed a simple random sample of 200 of the more than 20,000 students attending the university. Each student reported the average number of hours spent working part-time each week and his or her perception of the effect of part-time work on academic achievement. The data in the table below summarize the students' responses by average number of hours worked per week (less than 11, 11 to 20, more than 20) and perception of the effect of part-time work on academic achievement (positive, no effect, negative). Average Time Spent on Part-Time Jobs Less Than 11 Hours per Week 11 to 20 Hours per Week More Than 20 Hours per Week Perception of the Positive Effect Effect of Part- 21 9 5 No Effect 58 32 15 Time Work on Academic Negative Effect 18 23 19 Achievement A chi-square test was used to determine if there is an association between the effect of part-time work on academic achievement and the average number of hours per week that students work. Computer output that resulted from performing this test is shown below.
