Assume that we want to use the data from Exercise 1 with the Kruskal- Wallis test. Are the requirements satisfied? Explain.

Data From Exercise 1:

Listed on the top of the next page are attribute ratings of males by females who participated in speed dating events (from Data Set 18 “Speed Dating” in Appendix B ). In using the Kruskal-Wallis test, we must rank all of the data combined, and then we must find the sum of the ranks for each sample. Find the sum of the ranks for each of the three samples.

Data Set 18: Speed Dating

Data are from 199 dates (first five rows shown here). DEC BY FEM is decision (1 = yes) of female to date again, AGE FEM is age of female, LIKE BY FEM is “like” rating by female of male (scale of 1-10), ATTRACT BY FEM is “attractive” rating by female of male (scale of 1-10), ATTRIB BY FEM is sum of ratings of five attributes (sincerity, intelligence, fun, ambitious, shared interests) by female of male. Data for males use corresponding descriptors. Higher scale ratings correspond to more positive impressions.
