Prof. Reed is interested in studying the determinants of fertility. She believes that women who report that they would like to have a higher number of children will actually have a higher fertility than women with low fertility ideals. The results from her analysis are based on the 2002 GSS. Calculate how much a woman's ideal fertility contributes to predict the variance of her actual number of children? Std. Mean Deviation Number of children 1.65 1.451 Ideal number of children 2.95 1.805 Pearson's r .144 Number of cases 211
