Childhood vaccinations: In January 2015, the Pew Research Center reported results from one of their surveys. “Asked about whether vaccines for childhood diseases such as measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) and polio should be required or left up to parental choice, 68% of adults say such vaccines should be required while 30% say that parents should be able to decide whether or not to vaccinate their children.”
The following is an excerpt from the press release:
The survey of the general public was conducted using a probability-based sample of the adult population by landline and cellular telephone Aug. 15-25, 2014, with a representative sample of 2,002 adults nationwide. The margin of sampling error for results based on all adults is plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

- According to the February 2008 Federal Trade Commission report on consumer fraud and identity theft, 23% of all complaints in the U.S. in 2007 were for identity theft. In that year, Alaska had 321 complaints of identity theft out of 1,432 consumers ("Consumer fraud and," 2008). Does this data provide enough evidence to show that Alaska had a different proportion of identity theft than 23%? Test at 5% level.arrow_forwardThe Women’s Institutional Studies group at a Midwestern university wanted to compare the percentages of female faculty members in the various units on campus in Spring 2004. Of particular interest were the percentages of female faculty in the College of Education and in the College of Business . In a sample of 80 College of Education faculties, there were 36 females, and in a sample of 70 College of Business faculties, there were 15 females. Based upon this sample information, which of the following is the 98% confidence interval for the difference in the actual percentages of female faculty between College of Education and College of Business ? a. (0.075, 0.405). b. (0.123, 0.357). c. (-0.012, 0.252). d. (0.058, 0.422). e. (0.101, 0.379).arrow_forward1. A researcher is interested in the effects of nature and nurture on altruism. Participants were adopted children. To study nature, birth parents were categorized as being high or low in altruism. To study nature, adoptive parents were categorized as being high, medium or low in altruism. The adopted children were given an altruism questionnaire, where higher scores reflect more altruism. Does Nature and/or Nurture contribute to children's altruistic behavior? Complete the conclusion statement below. Assume a = .05 and Tukey HSD = 9.6. Birth Parents (A) HIGH LOW High M = 80 M = 60 Adoptive Parents (B) Medium M = 70 M = 50 Low M = 60 M = 40 The factorial ANOVA revealed significant main effects of Birth Parents [F(1, 30) = 5.28, p .05].arrow_forward
- 20 A national consumer organization has conducted a poll among purchasers of desktop and laptop computers concerning the consumer's level of satisfaction with the selection of computers that were available for purchase, prices, knowledge of machines by the sales people, helpfulness of sales staff, and the availability of support services and technical advice offered when there was a problem. Sources of computers were divided into two groups: sales originating at retail/electronic stores or sales from the manufacturer-direct stores and Web catalog retailers. For each type of sales outlet, a random sample of consumers who actually purchased a computer was asked to complete a survey, which consisted of a series of questions and ratings to be checked off. Score for the survey ranged from 0 to 100. Each score in the stem plot below represents the average for at least 200 responses for that store or Web site. A score of 80 was considered to be customers who were, on average, very satisfied…arrow_forwardYou are interested in whether level of education influences a person's exposure to the media. You define low media exposure as 0-5 hours/week, medium exposure as 6-10 hours/week and high exposure as more than 10 hours/week. You randomly sample 400 adults and find that 175 have a high school education, 140 have college as their highest level of education, and 85 have a postgraduate degree (e.g., JD, MA, MPA, DDS, Dr., Ph.D.). Of those with a high school education, 72 have low levels of media exposure, 40 have medium levels of media exposure, and 63 have high levels of media exposure. Of those with a college degree, 45 have low levels of media exposure, 45 have medium levels of media exposure, and 50 have high levels of exposure.
