Part 1

1. You are interested in learning more about people’s attitudes towards cohabitation.

a) Use the data above to construct a bivariate table and explore if there is an association between one’s education and attitudes toward cohabitation. Is there an association? Describe the pattern of association.

b) Assuming that this is a random sample, test a hypothesis (use α = 0.01) that there is an association between one’s education and attitudes toward cohabitation in the population. Show all your work (state the hypotheses, find the critical value, compute the test statistics, state a conclusion) and write one sentence summarizing the results. (Extra-credit: find the p-value).

c) Is this association weak, moderate or strong? Compute and interpret the appropriate statistic.
