To prepare for this Assignment, imagine that you have information about how 20 nursing students and 20 psychology students felt about starting PSYC 3002 on Day 1 of this class. You want to know if nursing students and psychology students felt differently about embarking on the Introduction to Basic Statistics journey.
Data Set :
Nursing | Psychology | |
Nervous | 4 | 11 |
Excited | 16 | 9 |
Another way of looking at this data set would be: |
4 Nervous Nursing Students |
11 Nervous Psychology Students |
16 Excited Nursing Students |
9 Excited Psychology Students |
By Day 7
To complete this Assignment, submit your answers to the following. Use SPSS to determine if academic program is related to feelings about PSYC 3002 by computing the appropriate chi square test.
Our objective, here, is to test the claim whether nursing students and psychology students felt differently about embarking on the Introduction to Basic Statistics journey. If this was not the case, we would expect equal no. of nursing and psychology students to feel nervous / excited.
We would have enough evidence to prove otherwise if the observed counts differ significantly from expected counts.
The test hypotheses are
H0: There is no significant dependence between Major (subject) chosen by students and their response on Basic statistics (Or) H0: Oi = Ei
Vs
Ha: There is a significant dependence between Major (subject) chosen by students and their response on Basic statistics (Or) Ha: Oi ≠ Ei
Using SPSS,
We get the Output:
Recall the four scales of measurement you learned about in Week 1 (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio). Explain what scale of measurement is used to measure academic program in this example. How do you know?
The data can be entered in the form of 1's and 2's (representing the categories for the two variables) and then coding the values using value labels:
Clicking on the value label A - 1 in the tab, we get the labels in the data view.
Recalling the four scales of measurement (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio), since, both the variables 'Academic Program' and 'Feeling' are both categorical in nature, they are measured in nominal scale with distinct categories.The scale of measurement used to measure academic program in this example is nominal, since the observations are nothing but counts of students who belong to either of its distinct categories- Nursing or Psychology.
Explain what scale of measurement is used to measure feeling about PSYC 3002. Explain how you know.
The scale of measurement used to measure feeling about PSYC 3002 is again nominal since the observations are nothing but counts of students who belong to each of its distinct category- Nervous or Excited.
State whether this scenario requires a goodness of fit test or a test of independence. Explain your answer.
This scenario requires a test of independence because our objective here, is to test if academic program is dependent on affects the measure of feeling about PSYC 3002.
Before computing the chi square, state the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis in words (not formulas).
H0: There is no significant dependence between Academic Program chosen by students and their Feeling on Basic statistics (or) Academic Program chosen & Feeling on Basic statistics are independent.
Vs
Ha: There is a significant dependence between Academic Program chosen by students and their Feeling on Basic statistics (or) Academic Program chosen & Feeling on Basic statistics are dependent.
Identify the obtained χ2 using SPSS and report it in your answer document.
From the SPSS output obtained, the Pearson's chi square statistic has the value 5.227
State the degrees of freedom and explain how you calculated it by hand.
From the SPSS output obtained, the degrees of freedom, is 1. It can be obtained using the formula: (No. of Rows - 1)(No. of Colmns - 1) = (2-1)(2-1) = (1)(1) = 1 degree of freedom.
Identify the p value using SPSS and report it in your answer document.
The p value obtained is 0.022. It is the probability of obtaining a result as extreme as the one obtained, when the null hypothesis is true.
Explain whether you should retain or reject the null hypothesis and why.
Based on the p- value obtained above, since the chance of obtaining a result as extreme as the one obtained, when the null hypothesis is true is very low (0.022 < 0.05) at say, 5% level of significance; chance of the null hypothesis being true is low. We may reject H0 at 5% level.
Are the results statistically significant? How do you know?
We may conclude that the result is statistically significant. Since, the result deviates significantly from the null.
Explain what you can determine about the relationship between academic program and feelings about PSYC 3002.
Regarding the relationship between academic program and feelings about PSYC 3002, we may conclude that the two study variables are dependent. Based on this sample data, we may infer that nursing students and psychology students felt differently about embarking on the Introduction to Basic Statistics journey.

based on this assignment: For this assignment, you will undertake an analysis based on a self-designed fictitious study that utilizes statistical methodologies. You will first develop a fictitious problem to examine - it can be anything. For example, maybe you want to look at whether scores on a standardized college placement test (like the SAT) are related to the level of income a person makes 10 years after college; Or, whether those who participate in a Leadership Training program rated...

Researchers studied the effects of learning about the effectiveness of a new medication (Tal & Wansink, 2014). Some participants heard information about the medication; others heard the same information and saw a graph that depicted the data they had heard about. Thus, the two groups had identical information. Participants rated the effectiveness of the medication on a scale of 1-9, with 9 indicating a higher level of effectiveness. The researchers reported "Participants given graphs expressed greater belief in the claims,...
