  For this assignment I want you to use the GSS93 data set to test for the effects of education on belief in the Theory of Evolution. Use the variable degree (RS highest degree) for your independent variable in this analysis. That variable is categorical and divides the participants according to the highest level of schooling that they completed. Use the variable "Humans Evolved From Animals" (belief in evolution) as your dependent variable. You should perform a Post Hoc analysis to identify the specific differences among these educational groups. Please summarize your results and present them so that someone who is knowledgeable about general psychology will understand what differences you found.
