Task: Find the true value of p.


Problem: A random sample of 319 male veterans who suffered from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was selected to participate in the study reported in the Journal of Applied Psychology. Of these 319 veterans, 43 were unemployed; construct a 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all such veterans who suffer from PDTD who are unemployed.




Note: First picture is the answer to the problem. Only left to find is the true value of p.
