The next question to be asked is how we form a confidence interval. The purpose of taking a random sample from a lot or population and calculating a statistic‚ such as the mean from the data‚ is to estimate the mean of the population. How well the sample statistic estimates the underlying population value is always an issue

I chose Symbolic Interaction on the basis that I deal with people all day in the hospital environment‚ and I feel that I see many dynamics of individuals with their beliefs and personalities. I would like to discuss the relationship in society (functional) and the competiveness (conflict theory) at a later time. This news event I believe depicts the Symbolic Interaction in society based on belief and
