The composition of male/female was already comparable in the Indian and
American groups (p > 0.10). However, the perceived affluence of the two groups
was significantly different (2 = 11.69[4], p < 0.02). The reason, however, was
that the Indians considered themselves more affluent: 62 percent of the Indians
considered themselves either ``comfortably (some left over after bills are paid)''
or ``very comfortably (don't have to think about bills)'' well off as opposed to 36
percent of the Americans. Since this bias would, if anything, be counter to the
expectations of the hypotheses, no adjustment was made.
