#6 Interpret Histograms
#Age is normally distributed. It is symetrical. It has a proper bell curve. #Education is normally distributed. It is symetrical. It has a proper bell curve.
#7 Normality Tests
shapiro.test(age$age)
##
## Shapiro-Wilk normality test
##
## data: age$age
## W = 0.99194, p-value = 0.5581
shapiro.test(age$education)
##
## Shapiro-Wilk normality test
##
## data: age$education
## W = 0.9908, p-value = 0.4385
#8 Interpret Shapiro Test
# Variable 1: Age # The first variable is normally distributed # w = .99, p-value = .5581.
# Variable 2: Education # The second variable is normally distribute. # w = 0.9908, p-value = .4385
Age is normal.Education is normal.
#9 Determine normality - Histogram and Shapiro are normal.Use Pearson.

A Pearson correlation was conducted to test the relationship between age (M = 35.32, SD = 11.45) and education (M = 13.83 , SD = 2.60). There was a statistically significant relationship between the two variables, r (148) =.52, p < .001). The relationship was positive and strong. As age increased, education increased.
