Rosner Table 11.1: Simple Linear Regression

Greene and Touchstone studied the relationship between estriol level and birthweight for 31 women. Please complete the problem using SPSS.

RQ: Does estriol (mg/24 hours) predict birthweight (g/100) in infants?

Ho: \[\beta \] SSI = 0 (The beta weight for estriol is equal to zero)

HA: \[\beta \] SSI \[\ne \] 0

The Data:
