IMPORTANT: Do not to round intermediate calculations. If it's necessary, round a number to 5 decimal places. Suppose you are interested in the relationship between job experience and job stress. From a sample of 10 correctional officers, you collect data on the number of years of correctional work experience (X) and job stress ()) measured on a scale ranging from 0 (none) to 10 (severe). Your hypothesis is that there is a relationship between job experience and job stress. Using the 0.05 significance level, test the null hypothesis that there is no relationship between the length of correctional experience and job stress. Work Job Stress " [ xY - ExEx Experience (X) Y 10 ADDWWNN- - 1. Is your hypothesis one-tailed or two-tailed? 2. Calculate the test statistic (Pearson's r) -- You can use Excel to find it in a second. Pearson's r = 3. Interpret the correlation coefficient (Pearson's r) Be sure to discuss the strength and direction of the correlation between the two variables. 4. Can you reject the null hypothesis? EXPLAIN WHY (in one sentence). *Be sure to write the critical value. Use the Critical Value Table B.4, which can be found in the "DATA"
