Question:

The authors of the paper ?External Factors and the Incidence of Severe Trauma: Time, Date, Season and Moon? (Injury [2014]: S93?S99) classified admissions to hospitals in Germany according to season. They wondered if severe trauma injuries were more common in some seasons than others. Assume that there were 1200 trauma cases in the sample and that the sample is representative of severe trauma injuries in Germany. The data in the accompanying table are consistent with summary quantities given in the paper. Do these data support the theory that the proportion of severe trauma cases is not the same for the four seasons? Test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05.
