6.1 A referendum is: (1)   A.     a vote by everyone over 25     B.     a vote by everyone who works     C.    a vote by everyone permitted to vote     D.    a vote by all men  

Question 4: Bike Data – Prediction (4a) 2 pts – Predict bikes for the test set (bike_data_test) using model1. Display the first six predicted values. (4b) 2 pts – Calculate and display the mean squared prediction error (MSPE) for model1. List one limitation of using this metric to evaluate prediction accuracy. (4c) 1 pt – Refit model1 on bike_data_full, and call it model2. Display the summary table for the model. (4c.1) 3 pts – Estimate the 10-fold and leave-one-out cross validation mean prediction squared error (MSPE) for model2. Hint: cv.glm() from the boot package uses MSPE as the default cost function. (4c.2) 1 pt – How do these two MSPEs compare to the model1 MSPE from 4b? Apply your knowledge of cross validation to explain your results.

2.6 Ecological globalisation accounts for the idea that the Earth is separated into many different parts. (1)

5.3 Citizenship can be defined as (1)   A.     the status of a person recognized under the law of a country of belonging to thereof.     B.     a legal identification of a person in international law, establishing the person as a subject, a national, of a sovereign state.     C.    the act of finding out who someone is or what something is.     D.    a distinct territorial body or political entity

2.1 A system of laws to judge people accused of crimes in court is referred to as justice system. (1)

6.5 Discuss TWO strengths and TWO weaknesses of democracy. (4)

Question 3: Bike Data – Goodness of Fit (3a) 3 pts – Evaluate whether the deviance residuals are approximately normally distributed by producing a QQ plot and histogram of the deviance residuals. Based on these plots, what assessment can you make about the goodness of fit of model1? (3b) 2 pts – Perform a goodness-of-fit statistical test for model1 using the deviance residuals and significance level 0.05. Provide the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, p-value, and conclusion in the context of the problem.  (3c) 3 pts – Why might a Poisson regression model not be a good fit? Provide two reasons. How can you try to improve the fit in each situation? Do not apply the recommendations.
