Example 12-12:
As of October 5
th
, 2012, there at least eight hundred and
fourteen 100% smoke-free campuses with no exceptions. (
Reference:
http://www.no-smoke.org/pdf/smokefreecollegesuniversities.pdf ). Some
students on those campuses feel that they are being penalized for being a
smoker on such campuses. A researcher wants to determine whether there is
a difference between the proportions of male and female students who
believe that an individual student has the right to smoke in his/her dorm
rooms on smoke-free campuses since some students regard their dorm rooms
as their homes (private spaces) when attending college. The sample
information is given in
Table 12-5.
