Questions

You just learned how to evaluate a training program using an independent-samples t-test. Now, imagine that your organization would like to evaluate its onboarding program. To do so, new employees are randomly assigned to either receive the onboarding training program or to not receive any onboarding training program. A posttest-only, with control group design is use, and the posttest outcomes include self-report measures of Turnover Intentions, Role Clarity, and Feelings of Acceptance, which are administered 6 months after all new employees joined the organization. Higher scores on each of those measures indicate higher levels of the concept. Using data found in the Practice sheet of the Excel workbook, do and respond to the following:

1.Run three independent-samples t-tests in which you compare the average levels of turnover intentions, role clarity, and feelings of acceptance for those who participated in the onboarding program (Onboarding) and those who did not (NoOnboarding). What did you find?

2.Based on these analyses, what is your overall impression of the organizations new onboarding program?
