Answer the following questions using a new SPSS data set uploaded to the data folder: adult politics and social attitudes survey.sav.

For more information about the items that make up each of the scales in the data set, see the WORD document with the actual survey questions.

Each question is worth 4 points for up to 24 total points (this would make up for more than 2 missed homeworks). The analyses corresponding to each of the questions were covered in previous lessons (so you might want to look at old assignments to figure out how to do them).

1. Describe the sample in terms of age, sex, race, and education level. Provide the relevant output used to summarize these variables. Summarize these statistics in a few sentences. [Hint: see assignment 2]

1. Is climate denialism (Climatedenial) associated with Trump favorability ratings (Trumpsupport)? Explain the direction, strength and significance of this association. [Hint: both of these variables are assumed to quantitative (interval/ratio) in terms of level of measurement.]

1. Do men and women differ significantly on climate denialism? What is your decision? Provide and interpret a measure of effect size.

1. Do individuals watch CNN (Newssource_2) or Fox news (Newssource_3) more often? What is the result of your significance test? Provide and interpret a measure of effect size. [Hint 1: both of these variables are assumed to quantitative (interval/ratio) in terms of level of measurement. Hint 2: these two variables represent two responses (like a repeated measure) regarding how much they watch different news sources.]

1. Are there significant political party (Party) differences in climate denialism (a quantitative variable)? If so, report exactly which groups differ and provide a chart showing the mean levels of climate denialism by political party.

1. Did men and women differ significantly with respect to whom they voted for in the 2020 election (A2020vote)? How did you analyze this? Provide and interpret a measure of effect size.
