Please answer for question #5

1. Stateyour Research Topic, Objective/Purpose, and Research Question(s).

When patients from the United States choose to have a commercial transplant of a kidney in a third world country, do they suffer more medical complications, including but not limited to post-surgery years of survival compared to patients who only have kidney transplants in the United States? In conclusion, I want to prove that with popular theory seeking a commercial transplant overseas can cause more significant overall medical complications than having a kidney transplant done domestically.

2.. List and label the dependent and independent variables.

Independent Variable: Classification of patients (recipients of overseas organ and recipients of domestic organ)

This is the preliminary data that need to be determined. This is independent because it is already defined, and it is not affected by any factor or components of the research.

Dependent Variable: The number of post-surgery complications

It is dependent on the classification of the patient. The initial claim that I want to prove in conducting this research is that recipients of overseas organs experienced more complications than those who received a domestic organ.

3. State the null and alternate hypotheses.

H0: There is no significant difference between the number of post-surgery complications between the two groups.

x1= x2

H1: There is a significant difference between the number of post-surgery complications between the two groups.

x1 x2

4..Describe which quantitative methods could be used to address your research question(s). Describe any that could be applied.

The research question intends to compare. I plan to compare the means of the number of post-surgery complications of the two groups.

Means and standard deviation should summarize the data in terms of average (mean) and dispersion (SD).

The difference of the means of the two samples will be tested using the t-test for independent samples. This is because the two samples are exclusive from each other (independent).

5.Describe which qualitative methods could be used to address your research question(s). Describe any that could be applied.
