In а recent study, scientists lооked аt the "cоmpаssionate" behavior of rats, defined by whether or not the rat would free another trapped rat in their cage, even when chocolate served as a distraction and even when the rats would then have to share the chocolate with their freed companion. (Rats, it turns out, love chocolate.) Source: Bartal I.B., Decety J., and Mason P. "Empathy and Pro-Social Behavior in Rats," Science, 2011; 224(6061): 1427–1430 In the study, 6 of 6 female rats and 17 of 24 male rats showed "compassionate" behavior by freeing another trapped rat at the "expense" of having to share their chocolate. Rats did not open the cage when it was empty or when there was a stuffed animal inside, only when a fellow rat was trapped. Scientists wish to compare the difference in proportions of female and male rats that show compassion. Choose the notation below for the parameter scientists want to estimate. Let group 1 be the female rats and group 2 be the male rats.
