Use the dataset “voter.sav” from Canvas. This dataset is a simulated dataset that includes information about 30 voters. The variables include: voter education level (education), age, income, self-identification as liberal or conservative (libcon), political party (party), and the percentage of ballot issues they voted on in three elections (vote2012, vote2016, and vote2020). 6. Find the skewness of the income variable. Write out your calculations (i.e., the equation) in this text box. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places. Is there significant skewness? If so, which direction is it (positive, negative)? (2.5 pts) ***For this question, I am looking for the table with the skewness values in your output file. In the text box below, show your calculations for skewness, whether or not the skewness was significant, and the direction of the skewness if there is significant skewness.***

The variables include: voter education level (education), age, income, self-identification as liberal or conservative (libcon), political party (party), and the percentage of ballot issues they voted on in three elections (vote2012, vote2016, and vote2020). 1. Using the compute procedure, create a new variable representing the MEAN of variables vote2012, vote2016, and vote2020. Call the new variable avgvote (for average percentage of ballot issues voted on). Make sure the new variable has the proper number of decimals, a label, and its measure (variable type) set correctly.
