Question 5: The following table of raw frequencies can be 'used to test this hypothesis: In a comparison of individuals, people with lower levels of education will express stronger support for the death penalty than will people with higher levels of education.
Support for death penalty
Education High school or less some college College or higher
Not Strong 47 43 56
Strong 49 50 35
A. Consider the way the table is arranged. If the hypothesis is correct, should we find a positive sign on Somers' dyx or a negative Signon Somers' dyx? Explain how you know.
B. Calculate Somers' dyx for this table. Show your work. On a sheet of paper, label three columns: Concordant pairs (C), Discordant pairs (D), and Tied pairs (Ty-Work your way through the table, recording and computing each concordant pair, discordant pair, and tied pair.
C. Examine the value of Somers' dyx that you calculated in B. Exactly what does this value tell you about your ability to predict death-penalty opinions using education as a predictive instrument?
D.State whether the relationship is weak, moderate, moderately strong, or strong.
