Take me out to the ball game. A researcher compared a random sample of recently divorced men
Question:
Take me out to the ball game. A researcher compared a random sample of recently divorced men in a large city with a random sample of men from the same city who had been married at least 10 years and had never been divorced. The researcher measured 122 variables on each man and compared the two samples using 122 separate tests of significance. The variable measuring how often the men attended Major League Baseball games with their spouse was significant at the 1% level, with the married men attending a higher proportion of games with their spouse, on average, than the divorced men did while they were married. Is this strong evidence that attendance at Major League Baseball games improves the chance that a man will remain married? Discuss.
