Exercise 1
For problems 12.1 to 12.9 and 12.14, calculate percentages for the bivariate tables. Use the percentages to help analyze the strength and direction of the association.
SOC: A small sample of non-English-speaking immigrants to the United States has been interviewed about their level of assimilation. Is the pattern of adjustment affected by length of residence in the United States? For each table, compute gamma and summarize the relationship in terms of strength and direction. (HINT: In 2 3 2 tables, only two cells can contribute to Ns or Nd. To compute Ns, multiply the number of cases in the upper left-hand cell by the number of cases in the lower right-hand cell. For Nd, multiply the number of cases in the upper right hand cell by the number of cases in the lower left hand cell.)
