Step 1: Identify 5 different independent variables that might answer the research question presented and the appropriate statistical test for each. There might be more than one appropriate test, select just one per independent variable. Use the Excel name for the variable on the table (e.g., Q4_Marital). Make sure to include at least one demographic variable (q2-q13) per table as independent variable
Step 2: Select at least two statistical analyses to perform for each research question (a total of 6 analysis conducted). Overall, out of the total 6 analysis you will perform you should have at least ONE for each statistics we learned in class (correlation, t-test, one-way anova)
Step 3: Write up a detailed paragraph for each statistical analysis (six total). Make sure to include the statistic, p-value, and discussion of what your results mean for each analysis that you perform. Use the links provided in Blackboard on how to write APA style results paragraph.
Step 4: Save the Excel file for each analysis and submit with your work. You should have 6 outputs (either 6 excel files or 6 tabs within an excel file). Please label Question1a, Question1b, Question2a, etc. the files or the tabs
