Please provide a SAS or SPSS analysis (correlation & regression) of the
data on the relationship
between the percentage of male immigrants (x) and remigration rates (y) of major
ethnic groups during the early 1900 century (New York: National Bureau of
Economic Research, 1929). What do you hypothesized influenced the males to
go back in certain
ethnic groups and others to stay in the USA? Please type a complete
response that
incorporates your correlation and regression analysis. Your answer should be
