In Data 2.1 on page 46, we introduce a study in which people were asked whether they agreed or disagreed with the statement that there is only one true love for each person. Table 7.27 gives a two-way table showing the answers to this question as well as the education level of the respondents. A person€™s education is categorized as HS (high school degree or less), Some (some college), or College (college graduate or higher). Is the level of a person€™s education related to how the person feels about one true love? If there is a significant association between these two variables, describe how they are related.

Data 2.1 on page 46

A nationwide US telephone survey conducted by the Pew Foundation in October 2010 asked 2625 adults ages 18 and older €˜€˜Some people say there is only one true love for each person. Do you agree or disagree?€ In addition to finding out the proportion who agree with the statement, the Pew Foundation also wanted to find out if the proportion who agree is different between males and females, and whether the proportion who agree is different based on level of education (no college, some college, or college degree). The survey participants were selected randomly, by landlines and cell phones.
