The topic for this project is “College Success and Work” Students in two Introductory Statistics courses were surveyed and asked several questions about their academic and personal life. We will assume this data represents a random sample of college students. In this exercise, we will use a subset of variables from the survey and use the collected data to answer questions. Note that (1) these are real data, and (2) the symbol * in the worksheet means that this observation is not available (this is known as a “missing value”). The data for this project can be found in StatCrunch. Log on to StatCrunch and click on Data Sets. Then search “MATH 1342 Final Project (Glaser)”. A description of the variables included in the dataset is below.
