Jamovi Homework 2 6 points Problem 1 Naomi is interested in the amount of television that preschoolers watch at home during the weekends. She asks the parents of 12 preschoolers how many hours, on average, their children spend watching TV every weekend. She wants to know how much TV each of the children watch relative to other children in the group. To get this information, she needs to convert the number of hours of TV watched into z-scores. She would also like to view a graphical representation of the distribution. These raw scores are presented to the right. Please use jamovi to complete your homework. You can load these data from the tv.csv file or type them in manually. 1) Use jamovi to generate z-scores for these data. Provide a screenshot of your data view showing these z -scores. (1 point) 2) Paste a histogram of both the raw data and the z-score transformed data. (1 point) How would you describe the shape of each distribution?
