Embrace or protect? In January 2017, Dalia Research (daliaresearch.com/why-trump-and-clinton-supporters-perceive-immigrants-so-differently/) asked people which statement they indentified more with:

1. Our lives are threatened by terrorists, criminals, and immigrants and our priority should be to protect ourselves. Or

2. It’s a big, beautiful world, mostly full of good people, and we must find a way to embrace each other and not allow ourselves to become isolated.

Does a person’s age affect how they responded to the embrace/protest question? Here’s some output from a logistic regression model (Embrace=1,Protect=0):

1. Write out the estimated regression equation.

2. Is there evidence that age is associated with the response? Explain.

3. On average, is an older person more or less likely to respond “Embrace”? Explain.
