he questions are structured so that a single letter, word, or number will suffice. Computational questions are arranged so that partial credit can be given for each step answered correctly. Always use the following model to submit your answers to the questions.
EXAMPLE:
Answers Q1 C
Q2 B
Q3 A, etc.
If the question requires computation, do the calculations and then give the correct values as follows: (Always hold all decimal values through your computations, and round final answers to at least two decimal places)!
Q4 7
Q5 4
Q6 22, etc.
If the question is a fill in the blank, just put in the appropriate word(s) as follows:
Q7 statistics
Q8 dependent variable, etc. 2

The following 8 questions (Q7 to Q14) are based on the information below:
The following data comes from "The Impact of AIDS on Gender Differences in Willingness to Engage in Casual Sex" by Russell Clark, Journal of Applied Social Psychology, Vol. 20, No.9, pp.771-782. In this study researchers were interested in gender differences in willingness to engage in casual sex. Both males and females were approached by opposite sex confederates and asked one of the three questions: "I have been noticing you around campus. I find you to be very attractive." Then the confederate asked one of these three questions: "Would you go out with me tonight?" "Would you come over to my apartment tonight?" 3 "Would you go to bed with me tonight?"
The type of question was randomly determined for each request. Test for a relationship between gender and compliance with each request. Interpret your findings. The results for the first two questions are as follows:
Date
Yes No
Male11 5
Female7 9
There are four total expected values:
Q7: What are the expected values for 'male-yes' and 'female-yes' (they should be the same)?
Q8: What are the expected values for 'male-no' and 'female-no' (they should be the same)?
Q9: What is the calculated chi-squared value?
Q10: Using a critical value of 3.84, was there a significant relationship between gender and compliance?
A. Yes
B. No
Apartment
Yes No
Male 8 8
Female 2 14
There are four total expected values:
Q11: What are the expected values for 'male-yes' and 'female-yes' (they should be the same)?
Q12: What are the expected values for 'male-no' and 'female-no' (they should be the same)?
Q13: What is the calculated chi-squared value?
Q14: Using a critical value of 3.84, was there a significant relationship between gender and compliance?
A. Yes
B. No
