Question

in the ideas on how to best address it. For this exercise, we presest GSS 2014 SPSS analysis of poltical party and the nt in Washingtcn should do everything possible to improve the standard of living of all poor Americans HELPPOOR is measured on a scale 1- ation to 5- person should take cartofhimser Ascore of 3 mdicates agreement to both strategies ats indicate that govenmment actios is necessary to help poor Americans? What percentage of Republicans indicated the same? 2·The ha-square obtained s l 19 53 Based onan alpha of 01, what can you coehdeabot the relationship between political party identificates and People Help Government Action Agree to Both 142 Democrat Independent Republican Total 4 Themselves Total 324 163 245 732 10 70 15 124 78 115 112

Explanation / Answer

(1) Percent of Democrate indicate that government action is necessary to help poor Americans = 69/324 = 21.30%

Percent of republicans indicate that government action is necessary to help poor Americans = 15/245 = 6.12%

(2) Here X2 = 119.53

dF = (3-1) * (5-1) = 8

alpha = 0.01

X2critical = 20.09

p - value = CHITEST(119.53; 8) = 0.0000

X2 > X2critical

so we shall reject the null hypothesis and can say that relationship between political party and HELPPOOR is not independent of each othere and there is a significant relationship.
