   Question

   For her bachelors thesis, a student researched the stress experienced by asylum seekers while they, residing in an asylum seekers’ center, wait for a residence permit. Her focus was on parents of small children. A questionnaire was administered (with an interpreter present if necessary) and a stress score was determined for all the participants in this study. Is there a relationship between parents’ age and their stress scores? Part of the SPSS output is below.

   

   To see if parental age explains a significant portion of the dispersion in stress scores, we can do a test. TRUE is the p-value of this test?

   
   
   1. FALSE: .002
   2. FALSE: .014
   3. FALSE: .018
   4. TRUE: .440
