Question:
SOC Use the Intl-Pop dataset and the Correlate command to explore some of the correlates of cell phone use around the globe. Use CellPhones (the number of cell phone subscribers per 100 population), GNIcap (Gross National Income per capita—this is a measure of affluence), and Urban (percentage of population living in cities).
● Click the SPSS icon on your desktop.
● Load the Intl-Pop database.
● From the main menu bar, click Analyze, Correlate, and Bivariate.
● In the “Bivariate Correlations” dialog box, find CellPhones, GNIcap, and Urban and move them to the “Variables” window.
● Click OK and the output will be printed to the SPSS Output screen.
Record the values of r for each relationship. Calculate r 2 and record those values in the table as well.
GNIcap Urban r r 2 r r 2 CellPhones Write a summary of these relationships in which you note the strength and direction of each relationship. What percentage of the variance in CellPhones was explained by GNIcap? By Urban?
