Question 2

First-year college students' self-ratings of their emotional health dropped to record low levels in 2010, according to the CIRP Freshman Survey, UCLA's annual survey of the nation's entering students at four-year colleges and universities. The rate of students who reported that their emotional health was in the highest 10 percent or above average was 519 per 1000 student. This was a drop of 34 per 1000 students from 2009 and a significant decline from the rate of students who placed themselves in those categories when self-ratings of emotional health were first measured in 1985 .Consider the rate in 1985 as the baseline rate. This rate was 636 per 1000 students. What was the decrease in the rate of students who reported that their emotional health was in the highest 10 percent or above average as compared to this baseline rate?
