1. QUESTIONS
2. Recode the payment method (D1) into a new variableD1recby combining 3 (Debit card), 4 (Check), and 5 (Other) into one category, the new 3. Original 1 (cash), and 2 (credit card) should not change. In other words, 11, 22, 3,4,53.
3. a) On the recoded variableD1rec, run a frequency analysis, and compute the appropriate statistic for central tendency.(Word)
4. b) Cross-tabulate the newD1recwithGender(S2).(Word)
5. c) Write the null hypothesis(Word), and run the corresponding statistical test regarding the association betweenD1recandGender. Should we reject H0? (is there an association?)(Word)
6. Refer to Question 14 in the survey.
7. Using the responses to Question 14, create a new variable calledOverall Health Consciousness(OHC) as the average of the ratings for the six questions 14.1, 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.6, 14.7 -- question 14.5 is removed because it refers to kids of the respondent, and thus not applicable to many.
8. [ Note that if there are any questions are phrased (negatively) in a way implying the opposite of OHC, you should convert the answer to the proper number ]
9. a) Check out how Excel treated "non-response" in one or more of the 6 questions (obviously average is not calculated if answers to all 6 questions are missing). Do you think it is appropriate?(Word)b) What is the mean (average) of OHC in this sample of respondents?(Word)
10. 3)Consider the OHC variable created as above. Do the average scores on OHC differ for males and females? Write the appropriate null hypotheses , and run the corresponding statistical test. Should we reject H0? (are the average scores different?)
11. 4)Consider the ratings for Wendy's in Question 9; that is, 9_39. Report the appropriate test statistic for the association between OHC and 9_39.(Word)Is there association?(Word)
