Instructions
Write a paper incorporating concepts that you learned during the course, using your survey results. You can start with your discussion post responses in Weeks 4 7 as a guide. Write a paper (about 2-3 written pages, 4-5 pages include graphs and results), double-spaced and in 12-point font. You will use Excel and/or StatCrunch for this project.
The final project paper will include:
- A title
- An Introduction
- A paragraph on how you sampled the data. Share limitations in your sampling method and discuss the reliability of the survey responses.
- Measures of central tendency and variation. Interpret the results in complete sentences. What do these results tell you about your data?
- Three graphs with at least one that summarizes categorical data and one that summarizes numerical data. Include captions for each graph.
- A confidence interval calculated using Excel or StatCrunch. Use a question from discussion post four and answer it using the confidence interval. Include the results and interpret the confidence interval.
- A hypothesis test including H0 and Ha answering a second question from discussion post four written as a claim. Include analysis showing the conditions are met, the test statistic and p-value, and a written conclusion. Include the results from StatCrunch.
- The body of the paper should be written around the results from your graphs, confidence interval and hypothesis test.
- Conclusion (Think about what outcomes you found interesting or unexpected.)
Submitting Your Assignment to the Dropbox:
- Submit a written paper including the above requirements
- Submit a separate document with the survey questions.
