Document Summary

See this powerpoint for help with spss with final project. P-values tell us the probability that are results due to chance (statistical significance) If highest p-value is 0. 05, then a value of 0. 06 is not statistically significant. In the results section, only report the results in the spss results table - *no. If a researcher selects an alpha level of . 01 instead of . 05. She would potentially be more likely to make a type 1 error. The chance of making a type 1 error would be unaffected. She would potentially be less likely to make a type 1 error. The chance of making a type 2 error would be unaffected. Chapters 6, 7 and 9 - covering all lecture material since last midterm.
