Document Summary

Your project will need tables: table: descriptive statistics univariate, table: bivariate statistics cross tabs. End of your project copy and paste the tables of your variables. Two quantitative variables use correlation statistical analysis. One quantitative and one categorical variable use analysis of variance. Two categorical variables use cross-tab and a chi square test. Final project: structure: intro, methods, results, conclusion, recoding, weighting, create tables in spss, examples on courselink. Will be on everything from type i and type ii errors in the lecture slides. If a researcher selects an alpha level of . 05 instead of . 01: she would be more likely to commit a type 1 error, easier to reject the null hypothesis at 95% confidence. Breakdown: 28 from lectures, 22 from textbook. Lecture notes: pay attention to anything emphasized, only study material related to the topics of the readings. Know: types of analyses used in categorical, quantitative. Everything else about final project not included.
