Consider the following scenario: Randy and Ray want to test their theory that being older (X) causes people to have more political knowledge (Y). They assert this is likely to be the case because older people are likely to have had more political experiences. They collect some survey data and find that age is positively correlated with a scale for political knowledge. Which of the following causal hurdle scorecards most accurately reflects the state of this research project?a. (y y y n)b. (y y y y)c. (y n y n)d. (n y y n)

Respuesta :

Answer:

Correct option is B

Explanation:

The correct sequence of the assertion can be scored as Y Y Y Y

If we look at all the assertions one by one;

Older people ( true) have more political experience ( true ) means Y Y

Second statement

Age ( older people, true ) is truly lined with a scale of political knowledge (true) Y Y

Now if we combine the above assertions which are all true then we can rate them as all Y's ( meaning all yes or true)
