Using SPSS to analyze the best places study, test whether violent crime rates (CRIMEV) vary by region
- Using SPSS to analyze the best places study, test whether violent crime rates (CRIMEV) vary by region (REGION) using one-way ANOVA with the Turkey test.
- Use SPSS to analyze 2 variables of your choice from the Monitoring the Future Study using one-way ANOVA. Remember the dependent variable needs to be an interval/ratio level variable and the independent variable needs to have 3 or more categories.
- Use SPSS with the Monitoring the Future Study to calculate a chi square statistic to test the null hypothesis that lifetime marijuana or hashish use (V115) does not differ by regional location (V13).
- In chapter 7, you use SPSS with the monitoring the future study to find out if boys or girls were more likely to have smoked marijuana or hash in their lifetime. Use SPSS now to conduct a chi square test of the null hypothesis for the same variables. What do these results indicate? Which statistic provides better information? Why?
- Consider the dataset A5CrimeAbuse.sav consisting of court cases where we have the gender of the offender and whether the accused was abused as a child.
- Obtain the observed frequencies table from SPSS .
- How many male offenders were not victims of abuse?
- Obtain the odds ratio and interpret it.
- The null hypothesis of the chi-square test is that being a victim of child abuse and the offender's gender are independent. What would the frequencies be on average if this were true?
-
Obtain the chi-square statistic. Do we reject the null hypothesis at
with this test?
