Chronic illness, Part I. In 2013, the Pew Research Foundation reported that "45% of U.S. adults report that they live with one or more chronic conditions".39 However, this value was based on a sample, so it may not be a perfect estimate for the population parameter of interest on its own. The study reported a standard error of about 1.2%, and a normal model may reasonably be used in this setting. Create a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of U.S. adults who live with one or more chronic conditions. Also interpret the confidence interval in the context of the study.
