Week 4 – descriptive statistics and interpretation

For this assignment you need to write a paper as well as create an Excel spreadsheet showing your data.

Create a Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet with the two variables from your learning team’s research scenario. I’ve posted a handout in the class messages section showing an example of how to create a hypothetical data set.

Analyze the data with Microsoft® Excel® or other statistical tool(s), including:

  • Descriptive stats for each numeric variable
  • Histogram for each numeric variable
  • Bar chart for each attribute (non numeric) variable
  • Scatter plot if the data contains two numeric variables

Determine the appropriate descriptive statistics.

  • For normally distributed data use the mean and standard deviation.
  • For significantly skewed data use the median and interquartile range.
  • For categorical data use the mode and percentages.

Use the Individual Methodology Findings Template to complete the descriptive statistics and include it in the body of the paper.

Use the Descriptive Statistics and Interpretation Example to develop an interpretation of the descriptive statistics.

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.

Submit both the spreadsheet and the completed Individual Methodology Findings Template to the Assignment Files tab.
