Page 4 of 6
Create a research hypothesis in your area of study that would be answered using a chi square test of independence. Please list the question and then provide your answer right below each question. Include the following:
1. Introduction: Brief description of the study including the purpose and importance of the research question being asked.
2. What is the null hypothesis? What is the research hypothesis?
3. Participants/Sampling Method: Describe your sampling method. What is your sample size? Who is your population of interest? How representative is the sample of the population under study?
Data Analysis: Describe the statistical analysis. What are the requirements of the chi square? (HINT: This should be a chi square test of independence). What is your IV? What is your DV? What level of measurement are your IV and DV? What is your alpha level?
4. Results & Discussion: Did you reject the null hypothesis? What information did you use to lead you to your conclusion? Was your observed p value greater than or less than your alpha? How do you interpret the findings? NOTE: You can just make up numbers, but include your made-up p value.
Use a minimum of 2 sources. APA format is required including proper in text citations and a list of references. NOTE: Sources used in answering the Topic Question should come from peer-reviewed journals. This means no tweets, blogs, wikis, CNN.com, etc. should be used as resources. Minimum of 550 words for the text body (word count does not include the Questions and References/Work Cited word count).
This is what my professor sent us yesterday through e-mail.
“Your response should look like this:
1. Introduction: Brief description of the study including the purpose and importance of the research question being asked.
Include your response in paragraph form here.
2. What is the null hypothesis? What is the research hypothesis?
Include your response in paragraph form here.
etc.
This format should help you to address EVERY question asked and it helps me in grading.
You should also be defining the statistical test, its requirements, etc and providing an intext citation for this summary. For example: What is a t test? When should it be used? What are the requirements? Why is the particular test appropriate to answer your research hypothesis? “
