Question

Illegal immigration in the United States is a complex matter, and people have diverse and conflicting ideas on how to best address it. The 2010 GSS contains several questions on this topic. For this exercise, we present the SPSS analysis of political party identification and the variable UNDOCKID, which measures support of the statement whether children of illegal immigrants should qualify for citizenship. a. What percent of Democrats indicate that children of immigrants should qualify for citizenship? What percent of Republicans? b. Based on an alpha of 01, what can you conclude about the relationship between political party identification and UNDOCKID?
