For each question, include in your answer:

- A diagram of the hypothesised relationship
- The statistical procedure that you used and why
- The relevant null hypothesis
- The relevant results from your statistical analysis presented in nice tables or graphs (please don't just copy the Stata output!)
- The significance and - if significant - the form and strengthof the relationship(s) in question
- A diagram of the relationship(s) given your results
- A conclusion of what your results mean (in terms of the real variables), and whether and why they confirm your expectations

For some questions, your answer may include:

- Further relevant results (e.g. the additional results obtained via regression)
- Graphs of the relationships identified
- Any problems with the variables that reduce confidence in your results (or proof that you've checked for such problems)
- Any possible explanations of surprising results

Q1
Research hypothesis: Turnout tends to be higher in proportional representation electoral systems

Variables: ‘votevp90', ‘Elecpr'

Q2a
Research hypothesis: A country's predominant religion influences its democratic status today

Variables: ‘Relig5', ‘FHdummy2008'

Q2b

Research hypothesis: That influence of predominant religion is irrelevant in poor countries
Variables: ‘Relig5', ‘FHdummy2008' and ‘gdpdummy'

Q3a

Research hypothesis: Where women have had greater access to tertiary education, they had more representation in government positions
Variables: ‘f_ter2001', ‘WomGov2005'

Q3b
Research hypothesis: There is no relationship between women's access to tertiary education and their access to government positionsonce we control for a country's general level of social and economic development

Variables: ‘f_fter2001', ‘WomGov2005', ‘gdp2000', plus maximum two others of your choice
