Physical activity generally declines when students leave high school and enroll in college. This suggests that college is an ideal setting to promote physical activity. One study examined the level of physical activity and other health-related behaviors in a sample of 1205 college students. Let's look at the data for physical activity and consumption of fruits. We categorize physical activity as low, moderate, or vigorous and fruit consumption as low, medium, or high. Here is the two-way table that summarizes the data:
Fruit consumption |
