Question

The data being used for the quiz are based on data that were collected after the 2009 war ended that was between Israel and the Hamas militias in the Gaza Strip. Responses were obtained from a group of students whom were exposed to rocket attacks during that period. The variables in the study include:

ID: Used to indicate the ID# of the participant

Age: The age of the individuals that responded to the survey

Gender: The gender of the individuals that responded to the survey

0 = Female

1 = Male

Parents in range; Indicates whether or not the participant’s parents decided to stay in the range of the rockets

0 = Not in range

1 = In range

Anger: Respondents were asked to estimate the level of anger they felt during the war

Fear: Respondents were asked to estimate the level of fear they felt during the war

Perceived Threat: Respondents estimated the likelihood/probability that they would experience risky events within the next 12 months

We can see from the above results that model 1is not statistically significant because F<Significance F. However, model 2 is statistically significant (F>Significance F and hence we reject the null hypothesis of no effect on dependent variable). We can conclude that atleast one variable affects the dependent variable.

In SPSS, run the linear regression as follows: -

1) Click Analyze>Regression>Linear

2) Select Dependent and Independent variable
