Q12 (gender) & Q7b (internet) .116 .096 90.4% confident that there is a difference between males and females regarding the preference of the internet but it is weak.
Q12 (gender) & Q7c (phoning in to movie theatre for information) .471 .000 99.9% confident (strong) that there is a significant difference between males and females regarding the preference of phoning in to the theatre for information.
Q12 (gender) & Q7d (television) .071 .238 76% confident there is a difference between males and females regarding the preference of using the television to find out information but is very weak.
Q12 (gender) & Q7e (friends and family) .090 .140 86% confident that there is a significant difference between males and females regarding using family and friends to find out information but is very weak.
Q12 (gender) & Q7f (other) .071 .207 79% confident that there is a significant difference between males and females regarding the preference of using information from other sources but is extremely weak.

Q3 & Q7a -.0363 -.6184 .5366 A one unit increase in Q7a is associated with a .0363 decrease in monthly movie attendance, but is NOT significant
Q3 & Q7b .0447 .7053 .4810 A one unit increase in Q7b is associated with a .0447 increase in monthly movie attendance, but is NOT significant
Q3 & Q73 .1411 2.4792 .0135 A one unit increase in Q7c is associated with a .1411 increase in monthly movie attendance
Q3 & Q9 .0858 1.0269 .3050 A one unit increase in Q9 is associated with a .0858 increase in monthly movie attendance, but is NOT significant

3. Using the regression results, compute Y(Q3) if Q5d = 4. Y= .2446x + .6796
Y = .2446(4) + .6796
Y= .9784 + .6796
Y= 1.658
4. Using the regression results, compute Y(Q3)if Q7c = 2. Y= .1411x + 1.1881
Y= .1411(2) + 1.1881
Y= .2822 + 1.1881
Y= 1.4703
5. Using the regression results, compute Y(Q3) if Q9 = 3. Y=.0858x + 1.2918
Y=.0858(3) + 1.2918
Y= .2574 + 1.2918
Y= 1.5492
6. Which of the 7 models in the bivariate regression analysis _Q5e at 97% explained the most variation in Q3 (hint: R2)?
7. In which of the 7 models does independent variable’s regression Q5d at .2446
coefficient cause the largest change in Q3 for a one unit change
in the independent variable?
