Repeat Exercise 11 “Speed Dating: Attributes” using all of the attribute ratings by females and males. The ratings are listed in Data Set 18 “Speed Dating” in Appendix B.

Data From Exercise 11:

Listed below are “attribute” ratings made by participants in a speed dating session. Each attribute rating is the sum of the ratings of five attributes (sincerity, intelligence, fun, ambition, shared interests). The listed ratings are from Data Set 18 “Speed Dating” in Appendix B. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that there is a difference between female attribute ratings and male attribute ratings.

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.
