The scores on four variables for 20 individuals are reported below: hours of TV (number of hours of TV viewing each day), occupational prestige (higher scores indicate greater prestige), number of children, and age. Take TV viewing as the dependent variable and select two of the remaining variables as independents.

a. Compute beta-weights for each of the independent variables you selected and compare their relative effect on the hours of television watching. Which is the more important factor?

b. Compute R and R².

 c. Write a paragraph summarizing your findings.
