Tutorial 6 (202)
Shamiso Choga
Task 1
Based on the recoding of lrscale for “left” and “right” and omitting “moderates” (see Tutorial 4), and educ.ba from this tutorial, do the long form coding for Chi-Square. Using the steps outlined in the tutorial, first generate the tables of expected proportions and frequencies. Determine and interpret the critical value for independence. Finally, determine and interpret both the Pearson’s chi-squared statistic and the p-value. Discuss main takeaways.

## X-squared = 160.41, df = 1, p-value < 2.2e-16We are able to reject the null hypothesis and maintain the independence of the two variables based on the facts presented above. My findings show a remarkably low p-value, supporting the previous claim even more.
Task 2
Do Steps 1 to 3 using the infer package (as we did in the tutorial), for the variables sbbsntx (recoded to the corresponding 5 categories) as the response and domicil (recoded to urban and rural, setting 2 to urban instead of peri-urban) as the explanatory variable for the country of France. See variable info here: https://ess.sikt.no/en/datafile/ffc43f48-e15a-4a1c-8813-47eda377c355/92?tab=1&elements=[%22874a86e2-a0f6-40b4-aef7-51c8eed98a7d/1%22])
Provide interpretations of the output (consider the variable info).

Task 3
Now do Step 4 (i.e., the null distribution visualization with confidence intervals) for the same variables and country as Task 2, and interpret the output.
null_distribution %>%
visualize() +
shade_p_value(obs_stat = test_stat, direction = "two-sided")## Warning: Chi-Square usually corresponds to right-tailed tests. Proceed with
## caution.
null_distribution %>%
visualize() +
shade_p_value(obs_stat = test_stat, direction = "two-sided")## Warning: Chi-Square usually corresponds to right-tailed tests. Proceed with
## caution.
the null hypothesis is rejected since the red line is outside the
highlighted portion, indicating that there is proof of a link between
the sbbsntx and domicil variables.
Task 4
Conduct Steps 1 to 3 using the infer package (as we did in the tutorial), for the variables ccrdprs (leaving it on the 0-10 numeric scale) as the response (or outcome) variable and lrscale (recoded as left and right, omitting “moderates” as we did in Task 1) as the explanatory variable.
