Docs co-browsing have positive effects on the customer experience? Co-browsing refers to the ability to have a contract center agent and customer jointly navigate an application (e.g., web page, digital document, or mobile application) on a real time basis through the web. A study of business indicates that 81 of 129 co-browsing organizations use skills-based routing to match the caller with the right agent, whereas 65 of 176 non-co-browsing organizations use skills-based routing to match the caller with the right agent.
a. Construct a
b. At the 0.05 level of significance is there evidence of a difference between co-browsing organization in the proportion in the proportion that use skills-based routing to match the caller with the right agent?
c. Find the p-value in (a) and interpret its meaning.
d. Compare the results of (a) and (b) to those of Problem 10.34 on page 375.

ASQ members work in all areas of manufacturing and service-related institutions, with a common theme of an interest in quality. For the survey, emails were sent to 54,337 members, and 6,093 valid responses were received. Manager and quality engineer were the most frequently reported job titles among the valid responses. Master Black Belt, a person who takes a leadership role as the keeper of the Six Sigma process (see Section 19.6) and Green Belt, someone who works on Six Sigma projects part-time, were among the other job titles cited. Descriptive statistics concerning salaries for these four titles are given in the following table: Compare the salaries of Green Belts, managers, quality engineers, and Master Black Belts.arrow_forwardPsychopaths display a constellation of traits that render them a dangerous group of individuals. While psychopaths live among us, many can be found within the criminal justice system. In fact, many have a history of violent behavior in general, and sexual aggression in particular. Some research has suggested that psychopaths have difficulty distinguishing the emotions displayed in facial expressions and also attribute hostile intentions to innocuous situations. These patterns have been thought to contribute to the violence psychopaths display. In this study, the researcher presents a short video clip of a person describing a situation that is either innocuous or aggressive while displaying either a fearful or angry facial expression. Twenty psychopaths (n=20) are recruited to participate and are asked to identify their response by selecting it on the computer screen. Their response time (in seconds) is being measured in order to determine if psychopaths respond differently depending on…arrow_forward

It is often difficult to recognize signals from LBW infants, and the program offered training in this domain. One group of mothers received instructions on responding to subtle signals of LBW infants while another group did not receive such instruction. A third group of mothers of normal birth weight infants served as a control group. The mothers were also divided by education level-high school education or less and more than high school education. How many independent variables are there? What type of analysis should be performed? Answer Choices: 3 x 2 ANOVA or 2 x 2 ANOVA or 1 x 2 ANOVA or independent 2-sample t-test The type of statistic you should perform is also called a ?

Government authorities are receiving several complaints from commuters due to the worst transport connectivity and endless queueing and congestions among rail transit stations. In this regard, aligning projects for the improvement of the traffic system as part of the "Metro Manila Dream (MMD) Plan" was set into motion. However, media reports claimed that many commuters did not feel any improvement in the current traffic situation in the Metro, especially in Epifanio Delos Santos Avenue (EDSA). The chair of the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) is keen to verify if the road traffic conditions are fairly improving in EDSA despite various media reports. In the past, the recorded vehicular traffic speed in EDSA shows about 15 kph, on the average. To do this, the MMDA deployed speed measuring radars in which the traffic speeds of 200 randomly sampled…arrow_forward
