Discussion:
Q1) Two hundred managers from various levels were randomly selected and interviewed regarding their concern about environmental issues. The response of each person was tallied into one of three categories: no concern, some concern, and great concern. The results were:
Level of Management No Concern Some Concern Great Concern
Top management 15 13 12
Middle management 20 19 21
Supervisor 7 7 6
Group leader 28 21 31
Use the .01 significance level to determine whether there is a relationship between management level and environmental concern.
