Abstract<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For this environmental reach project, my focus is on age increasing affecting the perception that it’s safe increases. My research question focuses on whether there is a correlation between how old people have affected their perception of how dangerous pesticides could be. My independent variable is the age of the people who participated in the survey and my dependent variable is the perception that it is safe increases. I conducted a secondary data analysis from the 2021 General Social Survey data (GSS) to find whether as age increases the perception that it is safe increases. GSS collects data on modern American society to track and analyze trends and constants in attitudes, behaviors, and characteristics; to look at how society is structured and functions generally as well as the roles that various subgroups play in these processes. The literature review in this project is from previously collected data from academic journals as well. The level of measurement that I utilized for my independent and dependent variables are ordinal variables. I find a statistically significant relationship between age and ordinal variables as I am looking at age. Using a Chi-square test I find that the perception of pesticides is not influenced by age increasing leads people on thinking it is safe to use. There is a negative relationship between age as increases the perception of pesticides being dangerous decreases.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
