A political scientist is interested in the and his or her optimism about the future. A random sample or and over was taken and the following questions were asked. What are your political views (conservative. slightly conservative, moderate. slightly liberal, liberal)? (This variable is called \"POLITICS\" for short). When your children are the age you are at right now, what do you believe their standard of living will be (much worse. somewhat worse, about the same, somewhat better, much better)? The researcher decides to conduct a chi-squared test of independence at the 0.05 level of significance. Based on the p-value you calculated in the previous question, what can the researcher conclude? Reject the null hypothesis and conclude that people with liberal views are less optimistic about their children\'s futures than people with conservative views.

Solution

As p value is not less than 0.05

Hence we accept Ho

So

Fail to reject Ho . Conclude that the peoples political views directly influence their level of optimism of their

childrens future
