Topic: How effective are parent-child interventions versus school-based education interventions on physical activity and BMI in community-dwelling children within 3 months?

  1. Calculate descriptive statistics for your main independent and other variables you have collected information on (example: demographic variables).
    1. a bar chart for the participants' gender and ethnicity.
    2. a histogram for participants' age.
  2. Calculate descriptive statistics for your dependent variable.
  3. a summary table of your descriptive statistics.
    1. Hint: For categorical variables, you should be calculating frequencies and percentages; for continuous variables, you should be calculating means and standard deviations.
  4. Use one hypothesis-testing statistic that examines the relationship between your independent variable and dependent variable.
    1. Hint: This test should be one of the followingindependent samples t-test, paired t-test, one-way ANOVA, or Pearson's chi-squared test.
    2. Whats the null and alternate hypotheses.
    3. What is the calculated statistic value?
    4. What is the p and critical statistic value?
    5. Is the p value significant? Is calculated statistic value greater than critical value?
    6. What is your conclusion?
