%here are two +roblems to be discussed in this section Firstly* the com+arison
of +ercentage of the variables and secondly* the significance of relationshi+ between
the variables First matter would be calculated using crosstabulation in (P(( while
another will be analyJed using Chi@(quare test
/rossta)lation
Crosstabulation is being used to establish an interde+endent relationshi+
between two tables of values which are the ethnics grou+s and satisfaction in life in
both values and +ercentage owever* it will not identify a causal relationshi+
between the values -n this case* we will see if there is any different of level of
satifaction between the different races
From the table* we can see that the total +ercentage for each level of
satisfaction within %,%(9%# is quite average which is about 2!@"6. %his means the
overall society is neither too satisfied nor eAtremely not satisfied owever* the result
shows that there are significant difference in each race category for their satisfaction
'alay are mostly satisfied with their lives as 4"!. of them have high satisfaction in
life

'alay 44&. of -ndian and ,thers and 4"!. of Chinese are having low satisfaction
towards their lives Ie can see difference from the com+arison between satisfaction
in life of different races and the significant of the difference would be measured as
below by using Chi@(quare %est
/%i"<are Test
Chi@(quare test is basically carried out in order to determine whether the
categorical variables are significantly related to each other -n this test* we will loo
into the Person Chi@(quare value and com+are it with the decided asym+totic
significance level < 9sym+(ig? to 3ustify the relationshi+ between variables -f the
values is less than the asym+totic significance level* the relationshi+ is significant
%he fact that the Pearson Chi@(quare value is $$$# and much less than $$5
that being decided to be significance level %his indicates that that the rows and
columns of the contingency are de+endent (o* we will re3ect the null hy+othesis
which stated that there is no relationshi+ between race and satisfaction in life
Kenerally* this means that it is worthwhile to inter+ret the cells in the contingency
table and it +roved that the relationshi+ is significant
7/23/2019 Full Report BR
