To what extent do syntax textbooks, which analyze the structure of sentences, illustrate gender bias? A study of this question sampled sentences from 10 texts. One part of the study examined the use of the words "girl," "boy," "man," and "woman." We will call the first two words juvenile and the last two adult. Is the proportion of female references that are juvenile (girl) equal to the proportion of male references that are juvenile (boy)? Here are data from one of the texts:
| Gender | n | X(juvenile) |
| Female | 63 | 48 |
| Male | 132 | 50 |
(a) Find the proportion of juvenile references for females and its standard error. Do the same for the males. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
p̂F=
SEF=
p̂M=
SEM=
(b) Give a 90% confidence interval for the difference. (Do not use rounded values. Round your final answers to three decimal places.)
( , )
(c) Use a test of significance to examine whether the two proportions are equal. (Use p̂F − p̂M. Round your value for z to two decimal places and round your P-value to four decimal places.)
z=
P-value=

An article reported on a study in which offenders were randomly assigned either to Teen Court or to the traditional Department of Juvenile Services method of processing. Of the 58 Teen Court individuals, 16 subsequently recidivated during the 18-month follow-up period, whereas 12 of the 51 Department of Juvenile Services individuals did so. Does the data suggest that...
