One of the reported findings from the 2015 CSHS was that 5.6% of Minnesota PSEO students used a vaping device in the past 30 days. The sample size used to obtain this estimate wasN= 56.

 Albert Hoffman's best friend, Dawson Leery, works for the Health Services at Worthington University. A survey of N=100 Worthington students found that similar to the Minnesota PSEO students, 5.6% of Worthington students surveyed also used a vaping device in the past 30 days. (Based on the bootstrap distribution of Minnesota PSEO students, the mean value is 5.5872, the margin error is 1.46399, and the interval estimate is 4.11421 to 7.04219.)  

 

 

Q. It turns out that the survey study at Worthington University sampled students from only one student housing building. Does this have an impact on the amount of uncertainty (range of likely values) computed in the bootstrap interval? Explain.
