Explanation / Answer
A. The bivariate table of frequencies are as follows:
It is hypothetized whether person's race affect victimization. Thus, it is suspected that race affects victimization. Therefore, race is independent variable and victimization is dependent variable.
B) The percentage of whites are 8/17=47.06% and percentage of non-whites are 8/13=61.54%. The % of white who are victimized is 80/160=50% and % of non-whites who are victimized is 80/160=50%. Thus, it doesnot seem that race affects victimization.
C) The bivariate table for frequencies of class and victimization is as follows:
It is suspected that class affects victimization. Therefore, class is the independent variable.
