McCluskey et al. (2008) conducted a survey of citizens’ attitudes toward police in San Antonio, Texas. Before proceeding with their main analysis, they first compare the ethnic distribution in their sample to that of San Antonio as a whole. According to the 2000 Census, 59% of San Antonio residents are Hispanic. In their sample of 454, 36% were Hispanic. Does the proportion of Hispanics in the sample differ from the Census figure by more than can be attributed to chance? Use α = 0:01. Note: The authors believe this difference is due to a tendency of poorer residents not to have telephones and to have a greater tendency to refuse to answer surveys.
