StatCrunch Assignment 1 - Part B (1B) This page explains the assignment. The questions you need to answer are on the next page. A key part of research involves formulating interesting questions then developing a methodology and collecting appropriate data to answer those questions. The final project in this course will follow this usual path for research. For this assignment, however, the data is already available and you must write questions that could have been in the mind of the survey developer that led to the collection of this data. For convenience, the survey items are shown below. qattachments_fb9abdf75e664ef3803482efa9195c7a660a698b.docx Here are a variety questions (from the StatCrunch website) that could be answered using the data collected by the student survey: The items below ask you to formulate a question, describe your methodology for answering the question, carry out the methodology you described, then answer your question. Although not as detailed, this mirrors the format used in many research reports such as the one due at the end of the term for this course, in RSCH 202, and capstone courses for some degree programs. Respond to the following items. 1. In Part A of this assignment, you selected a random sample of 30 StatCrunch U students and created a StatCrunch file containing data from the above survey for those students. You will use the StatCrunch data file you created in Part A to complete this assignment. Following the instructions at the end of Part A, paste your StatCrunch data file in the space below. This will allow your instructor to see your data. Be sure that your data is properly aligned in columns. qattachments_fb9abdf75e664ef3803482efa9195c7a660a698b.docx PASTE YOUR SAMPLE DATA HERE: 1088 1251 8629 10558 11812 12049 16897 17803 19512 22384 24218 24427 24941 26468 29081 30926 31324 31848 33458 33483 34152 37088 37115 37144 37412 38917 39127 40834 43199 43427 Male 1 Female Male 2 Male 2 Female Female Male 4 Female Female Female Male 2 Female Male 2 Female Female Male 3 Female Male 4 Female Female Female Female Female Male 4 Female Female Male 4 Female Male 2 Male 2 12 3 6 8 1 2 16 1 1 1 15 1 11 3 4 15 4 14 4 1 1 1 1 13 2 4 16 1 14 11 0 15 36.5 28.5 12 12 0 15 15 13 0 15 25.5 8 17 0 15 0 18 17 20 15 15 21 15 13 0 15 17 0 0 14.5 8467 0 20 0 0 0 0 0 0 17 0 29.5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 15416 23 0 0 0 8215 0 1333 12674 0 6249 2813 0 9424 0 3743 0 2979 0 2592 12307 0 3459 0 6661 14521 5325 3629 0 0 4665 0 14899 3746 5586 3082 3439 3875 1127 1650 1394 1204 1258 1281 4042 6876 5493 0 922 1082 1093 1037 2621 7761 1283 2a. State a single question related to a categorical variable that can be answered using your survey data and the techniques you have studied thus far in this course. You are encouraged to develop your own question, but you may use an appropriate question from the StatCrunch website. The question you use should be about the entire population of StatCrunch U students not just about those in the sample. Assume that your sample is representative of the population. b. Explain the methodology you will use to answer the question you posed. Your explanation should include answers to the following questions. Do not include your analysis or answers to your question hereonly describe how you will do the analysis. What is the variable of interest? What graphical techniques will you use to describe your data? Why are those techniques appropriate for analyzing this data? c. Carry out the methodology described in b above. Use StatCrunch and paste copies of the graphs/charts from StatCrunch in the space below. qattachments_fb9abdf75e664ef3803482efa9195c7a660a698b.docx d. Based on the results of b and c above, answer your question. Include an explanation of how you used the graphs and charts to formulate your answer. 3a.
