- Problem 10.6. Does the rate of voter turnout vary significantly by the type of election? A random sample of voting precincts displays the following pattern of voter turnout by election type. Assess the results for significance To know which groups are different from one another, we need to examine the results from the post hoc test analysis. Not all of what you get needs to be examined. Discuss final results using APA format. In addition to referring to information from the previous two tables,arrow_forwardFor Questions 1 and 2, you will read an operational hypothesis. Identify the independent variable (IV), dependent variable (DV), and unit of analysis (UA). For each variable (IV and DV), indicate the appropriate level of measurement. There is a relationship between political affiliation (on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 = very liberal and 10 = very conservative) and U.S. geographic regions, such that people living in the Northeast are more likely to consider themselves liberal than people living in the South. IV: DV: UA: Level of Measurement (IV): Level of Measurement (DV):arrow_forwardIn the oil-wildcatting problem (book chapter 7), suppose that the company could collect information from a drilling core sample and analyze it to determine whether a dome structure exists at Site 1. A positive result would indicate the presence of a dome, and a negative result would indicate the absence of a dome. The test is not perfect, however. The test is highly accurate for detecting a dome; if there is a dome, then the test shows a positive result 99% of the time. On the other hand, if there is no dome, the probability of a negative result is only 0.85. Thus, P(+ | Dome) = 0.99 and P(- | No Dome) = 0.85. Use these probabilities, the information given in the example, and Bayes' theorem to find the posterior probabilities P(Dome | +) and P(Dome | -). If the test gives a positive result, which site should be selected? Calculate expected values to support your conclusion! If the test result is negative, which site should be chosen? Again, calculate expected valuesarrow_forward

If so, how would you explain this score?arrow_forwardSuppose that your friend sees the results from question 4 and concludes that heavier drinking causes more tobacco use.
