It is believed that seat position within a bus may have some effect on whether one experiences motion sickness. The table below classifies each person in a random sample of bus riders by the location of his or her seat and whether nausea was reported.
Contingency table results:
Rows: seat
Columns: None
Chi-Square test:
Select the appropriate interpretation of the results.
Using a 0.05 level of signficance, there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that seat position and level of nausea are associated.
Using a 0.05 level of signficance, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that seat position and level of nausea are associated.
All bus riders who seat in the rear are about 3 times as likely to experience nausea than those who sit in the front.
Using a 0.05 level of signficance, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that seat position and level of nausea are independent.
| nausea | no nausea | Total | |
| front | 58 | 870 | 928 |
| middle | 166 | 1163 | 1329 |
| rear | 193 | 806 | 999 |
| Total | 417 | 2839 | 3256 |
Solution
Using a 0.05 level of signficance, there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that seat position and level of nausea are associated.
p-value is less than 0.0001 and that means that is less than 0.05
so we conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that are associated
