In a survey of 809 human resource professionals concerning challenges they faced in the workplace, 328 said that employee retention/turnover was an important challenge and 191 said that employee satisfaction was an important challenge. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
a. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population proportion of human resource professionals who believe that employee retention/turnover was an important challenge. The 95% confidence interval estimate for the population proportion is nothingless than or equalspiless than or equals nothing. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
b. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population proportion of human resource professionals who believe that employee satisfaction was an important challenge. The 95% confidence interval estimate for the population proportion is nothingless than or equalspiless than or equals nothing.
The formula for the confidence interval of the population proportion at (1-alpha)% level of significance is:
p =
a) The estimate of the population proportion is 328/809 = 0.4054
Using the formula above the 95% confidence interval estimate of the population proportion of human resource professionals who believe that employee retention/turnover was an important challenge is given as:
(0.3716, 0.4393)
b) The estimate of the population proportion is 191/809 = 0.2361
Using the formula above 95% confidence interval estimate of the population proportion of human resource professionals who believe that employee satisfaction was an important challenge is given as:
(0.2068, 0.2654)
