Question:

A sociologist studying New York City ethnic groups wants to determine if there is a difference in income for immigrants from four different countries during their fi­rst year in the city. She obtained the data in the following table from a random sample of immigrants from these countries (incomes in thousands of dollars). Use a 0.05 level of signi­ficance to test the claim that there is no difference in the earnings of immigrants from the four different countries.

In the problem, please provide the following information.

(a) What is the level of signifi­cance? State the null and alternate hypotheses.

(b) Find SSTOT, SSBET, and SSW and check that SSTOT – SSBET + SSW. Find d.f.BET, d.f.W, MSBET, and MSW. Find the value of the sample test statistic F (F ratio).

What are the degrees of freedom?

(c) Find (or estimate) the P-value of the sample test statistic.

(d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis?

(e) Interpret your conclusion in the context of the application.
