Exercise
An educational scientist wants to examine the correlation between years of education and job satisfaction. To address this question, the scientist recruits a group of participants and has each complete a self-administered survey; the first question asks how many years of education the participant has (e.g., 12 = high school diploma, 14 = associate's degree, 16 = bachelor's degree, 18 = master's degree). The remaining questions consist of the Acme Job Satisfaction Index (AJSI), which produces a score between 0 and 60 (0 = very unsatisfied with job, 60 = very satisfied with job).
