A research group conducted an extensive survey of 2870 wage and salaried workers on issues ranging from relationships with their bosses to household chores. The data were gathered through hour-long telephone interviews with a nationally representative sample. In response to the question, “What does success mean to you?” 1593 responded, “Personal satisfaction from doing a good job.” Let p be the population proportion of all wage and salaried workers who would respond the same way to the stated question. Find a 90% confidence interval for p. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)lower limit upper limit
