Provide a rationale for why early childhood educators need to know how to effectively guide children's behavior in their programs
What will be an ideal response?
Early childhood professionals spend many hours with young children as parent/family surrogates. Helping children learn to guide and be responsible for their own behavior is as important as helping them learn to read and write. Helping children learn to act responsibly lays the foundation for lifelong responsible and productive living. The roots of delinquent and deviant behavior are in the early years. Parents and the public are looking to us to help children learn to live cooperatively and civilly in a democracy.

What is the hypothesis that is being tested?
A restaurant wants to know if more people prefer ranch dressing or honey mustard dressing with their salads. After keeping track of customers’ preference for 3 months, the restaurant learned that a total of 500 people ordered salad, and 300 asked for ranch dressing and 200 asked for honey mustard dressing. Conduct the appropriate statistical test to see if there is a difference between the frequencies of customers ordering the two types of salad dressing. Assume that the expected frequencies are equal, and use an alpha of .05.
