Steven:

Why are you sending copies to r-help-bounces????? Do you think the moderators need an extra copy?

This is a elementary problem concerned with tests of association.  You
should read up on categorical statistics, chi square tests, and general
linear models.

Along those lines, Thompson's "R accompaniment" to Agresti's text on "Categorical Data Analysis" is simply wonderful:

It's not surprising that Agresti recommends it on the book's homepage:
http://www.stat.ufl.edu/~aa/cda/cda.html

However, I suspect the OP might be better off with Agresti's "An Introduction to Categorical Data Analysis (2nd ed. 2007)". So perhaps following the link on Agresti's page to the linked and website could be a first visit for worked R code examples. But when I followed that link I didn't find much that seemed appropriate for a beginner in R. Maybe looking at Friendly's website which was in the links at Bilder's site:

I have this question:

http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4240145/data%5D.jpg

This table and data represents a sample of social housing residents in
Copenhagen and I'm asked to analyse the data with a view to seeing what
might be related to residents satisfaction levels.

And I just don't know where to start, if anyone could help this would be
greatly appreciated
