However, as you can see above, the researcher’s assistantaccidentally replaced some of the numbers in the table with ameaningless symbol. Luckily, there is enough information there tostill determine the answer to the researcher’s question. Please answer whether there is arelationship between lineup type and suspectidentification, including the number(s) that you usedto answer this question and how.
