13.34   Do left-handed people live shorter lives than right-handed people? A study of this question examined a sample of 949 death records and contacted next of kin to determine handedness.20 Note that there are many possible definitions

of “left-handed.” The researchers examined the effects of different definitions on the results of their analysis and found that their conclusions were not sensitive to the exact definition used. For the results presented here, people were defined to be right-handed if they wrote, drew, and threw a ball with the right hand. All others were defined to be left-handed. People were classified by gender (female or male) and handedness (left or right), and a 2 × 2 ANOVA was run with the age at death as the response variable. The F statistics were 22.36 (handedness), 37.44 (gender), and 2.10 (interaction). The following marginal mean ages at death (in years) were reported: 77.39 (females), 71.32 (males), 75.00 (right-handed), and 66.03 (left-handed).

(a)   For each of the F statistics given above find the degrees of freedom and an approximate P-value. Summarize the results of these tests.

(b)   Using the information given, write a short summary of the results of the study.
