The University of Chicago’s General Social Survey (GSS) is the nation’s most important social science sample survey. The GSS asked a random sample of adults their opinion about whether astrology is very scientific, sort of scientific, or not at all scientific. Here is a two-way table of counts for people in the sample who had three levels of higher education degrees:
Degree Held | |||
Junior College | Bachelor | Graduate | |
Not at all scientific | 47 | 181 | 113 |
Very or sort of scientific | 36 | 43 | 13 |
Find the two conditional distributions of degree held: one for those who hold the opinion that astrology is not at all scientific and one for those who say astrology is very or sort of scientific. Based on your calculations, describe with a graph and in words the differences between those who say astrology is not at all scientific and those who say it is very or sort of scientific.
Let JC = Junior college
B = Bachelor
G = Graduate
NS = Not at all scientific
VS = Very or sort of scientific
Here we want to find two conditional distributions:
1) Let's make table in excel:
The graph of the above conditional distribution is as follows:
2)
The graph of the above conditional distribution is as follows:
From the above graphs we conclude that the change in the probabilities of JC and G when the conditions are changes from NS to VS.

Please read the article bellow and discuss the shift in the
company's approach to genetic analysis. Please also discuss what
you think about personal genomic companies' approaches to research.
Feel free to compare 23andMe's polices on research with another
company's. Did you think the FDA was right in prohibiting 23andMe
from providing health information?
These are some sample talking points to get you thinking about
the ethics of genetic research in the context of Big Data. You
