Textbook Question
Chapter 12.2, Problem 17E
Amount of Sleep by Age Group. The National Sleep Foundation used a survey to determine whether hours of sleep per night are independent of age. A sample of individuals was asked to indicate the number of hours of sleep per night with categorical options: fewer than 6 hours, 6 to 6.9 hours, 7 to 7.9 hours, and 8 hours or more. Later in the survey, the individuals were asked to indicate their age with categorical options: age 39 or younger and age 40 or older. Sample data follow.
- a. Conduct a test of independence to determine whether hours of sleep are independent of age. Using a .05 level of significance, what is the p-value and what is your conclusion?
- b. What is your estimate of the percentages of individuals who sleep fewer than 6 hours, 6 to 6.9 hours, 7 to 7.9 hours, and 8 hours or more per night?
