Question: Using the HSB data: The High School and Beyond data is from a large-scale longitudinal study conducted by the National Opinion Research Center (1980) under contract with the National Center for Education Statistics. Below is a table (note: this is called summarized data!) representing a sample of 100 students from this data that includes the student’s gender and whether the high school they attended was public or private. Note: if you did the activity for the probability lesson this would be a test of independence: that is, can we say that the probability of being Female is independent of the probability that school type is public?
Public | Private | Total | |
Female | 38 | 7 | 45 |
Male | 46 | 9 | 55 |
Total | 84 | 16 | 100 |
(i) Complete following table using conditional percents (this would be the row percents),
Public | Private | Total | |
Female | |||
Male | |||
Total |
(ii) based on the percents, discuss the nature of any relationship, and
(iii) do a chi-square test of statistical significance. State a clear conclusion for the test of significance.
