this is the codebook



Background Data comes from a research project whose purpose is to study young people's relationship to their parents during the high school years. Participants come from a medium-sized municipality in central Sweden and the data collection took place in the spring of 2014. A codebook is attached with information about the scales and those demographic variables contained in the dataset. When you are asked to interpret the results in APA style, these are pet characteristics you can use in your description - remember that the variables measure young people's experiences and attitudes, so interpret the results with that in mind. Note: For the questions where you are asked to comment on the normality of the scales, you must complete the necessary analyzes and based on the results formulate a comment- feel free to substantiate your answers by pasting graphs from SPSS. In subsequent questions, where you are asked to perform an analysis, you can ignore any deviations from normality and interpret results as if the basic requirements are met. Question 2 Does the parents vary independently of the adolescent gender? Carry out the correct analysis and answer the question in APA style, by describing the analysis carried out to answer the question, the results obtained and a conclusion about what the results mean.
