**Chapter 8: Confidence Intervals** A psychologist is interested in constructing a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain. In a survey, 57 of the 791 randomly selected people agreed with this theory. **a.** With 95% confidence, the proportion of all people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain is between _______ and _______. **b.** If many groups of 791 randomly selected people are surveyed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About _______ percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of all people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain, and about _______ percent will not contain the true population proportion. **Hint:** - [Hint] - [Video] - [Textbook] For additional help, contact your instructor. **Submit Question**
