POLS/GEOG 418: Quantitative Analysis Assistant Professor David C. Earnest March 1, 2005 Problem Set #6: Crosstabulation and Means Comparisons In this prcblem set you will apply the techniques cof crasstabulation and means comparisons to test some basic hypotheses. Below you will find four hypotheses. For the first two hypotheses, we will use the GSS93 subset.sav dataset in the SPSS library. For hypotheses #3 and #4, we will use the NES2000.sav dataset available on the CD-ROM that accompanies Pollock’s An SPSS Companion to Political Analysis reader. Your problem set will be due at the beginning cof class on Tuesday, March 15, 2005. For each hypothesis I will grade you on yaur use cof the appropriate tabular hypcthesis test; the carrect usage of graphical techniques; the proper labeling of tables and graphs; and your associated written analysis of the hypothesis and data. That is tosay, far each hypothesis I expect you to draw a substantive conclusion about the hypothesis from the data using crasstab ar means camparisons and an associated graph. I expect all your output tobe labeled properly. Far each, please provide each cf the fdlawing: I. Use the correct tabular analytic technique: crasstabulation or means comparisons. Include your table with appropriate titles, labels and other relevant details. Il. Produce abar chart of line graph, as appropriate tothe hypothesis and data. Ill. Label all tables, charts and graphs appropriately, sothat an unfamiliar reader can interpret you variables and quantities ar percentages you repart in tabular and graphical form. IV. Make a canclusicn about the hypothesis. Does your analysis suppart the hypothesis? Does it refute it? Or is it inconclusive? Hypothesis 1: “In comparing individuals, those whohdd an advanced educaticnal degree are mate likely tobelieve in the theary of evolution than those who anly a high school degree or never graduated from high schod.” (Hint: use the “degree” and “scitest4” variables) Hypothesis 2: “In comparing individuals, those who are Catholics are less likely to agree that teenagers ages 14 to 16should use birth cantrol than are those who are Protestants.” (Hint: use the “relig” and “pillok” variables) GO TO NEXT PAGE.
