Question:
An Associated Press article (San Luis Obispo Telegram-Tribune, September 23, 1995) examined the changing attitudes of Catholic priests. National surveys of priests aged 26 to 35 were conducted in 1985 and again in 1993. The priests surveyed were asked whether they agreed with the following statement: Celibacy should be a matter of personal choice for priests. In 1985, 69% of those surveyed agreed; in 1993, 38% agreed. Suppose that the samples were randomly selected and that the sample sizes were both 200. Is there evidence that the proportion of priests who agreed that celibacy should be a matter of personal choice declined from 1985 to 1993? Use α = .05.
