Soc 1-4 Homework 5:Tables.PRINTED –not handwritten - HARD COPY NO TURNITIN Due Monday 10/5/15 at the beginning of class. PRINTOUT HARD COPY NO TURNITIN P.1 Format: Papers should contain a table and interpretation. These may be on the same page or different pages. • The table MUST be PRINTED on a PRINTER. • The writeup MUST be typed and printed, double-spaced with a 12-point font please. It may be 1 to 3 sentences or more, but overall it should be less than 250 words. • If the table is on a different sheet of paper from your interpretation, please staple or paper-clip them together. Make sure your name is on both sheets. I invite you to work together. However each person must produce their own work. No copying and pasting each other’s answers, please. Papers we judge to be the same will receive 0. Build a table This assignment asks you to collect data, interpret them, and then put them in a table and interpret the table. You will need to know the following: variables, attributes, independent variables, dependent variables, percents and column percents. You will also need to know how to read a bivariate table – the instructions are presented in class, and are repeated on the other side of this sheet. The data we collected in class were in answer to the following question: Which of the following best describes you? A. I am FEMALE and I HAVE bought marijuana from a dealer B. I am FEMALE and I HAVE NOT bought marijuana from a dealer C. I am MALE and I HAVE bought marijuana from a dealer D. I am MALE and I HAVE NOT bought marijuana from a dealer E. Even though I know this poll is anonymous, I respectfully decline to answer We collected data for answer E., but we will not be using it. Please do not use the number from “E” The data we collected are below. Do not simply reproduce this thing! If you are downloading this from ANGEL, I will post this same document you are reading sometime Friday afternoon with numbers filled in for your section. 1. Please make a table of these data. The table MUST be produced using a computer, and printed out. Please round to the nearest .1 (eg 45.05 rounds up to 45.1). 2. Please interpret the table. In 1 to 3 sentences, please describe what is going on in this table. Please do so in no more than 250 words. Grades for this homework 5 will be assigned on the basis of how well you follow the rules of table- making (see the other side), and how correctly you interpret the results. Tip: Simply be sure of your independent and dependent variables, then use the table on the other side of this paper as a model, and you can’t go wrong (in building the table, anyway)!
