Need to use SPSS (STATISTICAL ANALYSIS SOFTWARE) to answer the questions below.
Once tutor is selected, I will provide you with the data that you need to use for 2 questions.
1. Your variables are gender and women_role2.
Here is your hypothesis: In comparison of individuals/respondents, females will more likely be in favor of women working than males.
- You need to test this hypothesis. Run an appropriate test (0.5pts if correct output included – include %).
- Find the variable relig_imp2. This is your control variable. Run an appropriate test with this control variable (0.75pt if correct output included – include %). Assess the relationship between gender and women_role2 (home) with those for whom religion is not important: tendency and strength (0.5pts), then with those for whom religion is important: tendency and strength (0.5pts).
- Compare the tables with and without your control variable. Does a spurious relationship exist between gender and women_role2? (0.5pts); if yes, why? if no, why? (0.75pts).
2. Your variables are Gdp_Cap3 and Polity.
Here is your hypothesis: In comparison of countries, those having high GDP will more likely be democratic than those having low GDP.
- You need to test this hypothesis. Run an appropriate test (0.25pts if correct output included).
- Find the variable EU. This is your control variable. Run an appropriate test with this control variable (0.75pt if correct output included). Does the Gdp_Cap3-Polity relationship have the same tendency at both values of the control? (0.5pts)
- Compare the tables with and without your control variable. Does a spurious relationship exist between Polity and Gdp_Cap3? (0.5pts); if yes, why? if no, why? (0.75pts).
