Riehl (1994) examined whether Indiana University students who were the first generation in their family to attend college were more at risk of dropping out during their first semester than other students. The table below shows the observed frequencies:

First Generation Students Other Students
Dropped Out 73 89
Did Not Drop Out 657 1226

a. Using Excel, conduct a Chi-square test of independence on these data.

b. Report the results in a textbox. Be sure to provide both a statistical and research conclusion.

A university is interested in whether there's a difference between students who live on campus and students who live off campus with respect to absenteeism. Over one semester, researchers take random samples of on-campus and off-campus students and record the following number of classes each student misses. On-campus: (3, 4, 0, 6, 2, 1, 3, 3, 5, 2, 4, 4, 6, 5, 2) Off-campus: (6, 5, 2, 6, 2, 0, 7, 8, 1, 7, 2, 6, 5, 3, 2) a)...

The average exam score for students enrolled in statistics classes at Indiana University Northwest is 80 and grades are normally distributed. A professor decides to select a random sample of 25 students from his CJ statistics class to see how CJ students compare to the student body in terms of exam performance. The average exam score of this sample is 78 with a variance equal to 100. Are the stats exam scores of the students in the CJ class significantly...

In this chapter, we examined the difference in educational attainment between first- and second-generation Hispanic Americans and Asian Americans based on the proportion of each group with a bachelor’s degree. We present additional data from the Pew Research Center’s 2013 report, measuring the percentage of each group that owns a home (Frankfort-Nachmias, & Leon-Guerrero, 2018, p. 231). First-Generation Hispanic Americans (N = 899), 43% own a home Second-Generation Hispanic Americans (N = 351), 50% own a home First-Generation Asian Americans...

At the beginning of the Summer 2018 semester, a sample of 266 World Campus students were surveyed and asked if they were a first-generation college student. In the sample of 266, 139 said that they were first generation college students. We want to construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all World Campus students who are first generation students. A. In StatKey, construct a bootstrap distribution and use the percentile method to find the 90% confidence interval...

1. In a recent campus survey, 75 Indiana students were asked if they felt that their education at Cleary was preparing them for their future careers and 83% of students responded “Extremely well prepared.” Construct a 95% confidence interval (use z= 1.96) for the true proportion of Cleary students who feel the same way. Round standard error to 4 decimal places. 2.   Is there anything you could do to get a narrower range of values in the previous problem? 3....
