Please state your null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis in your own words. After you run the data through SPSS, please write up the results in the correct APA style.

Answer 1

The SPSS output is:

The hypothesis being tested is:

H₀: There is no relationship between a customer’s gender and the type of beer they order

H_a: There is a relationship between a customer’s gender and the type of beer they order

The test statistic is 92.537.

The p-value is 0.0000.

Since the p-value (0.0000) is less than the significance level (0.05), we can reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, we can conclude that there is a relationship between a customer’s gender and the type of beer they order.
