8210 Week 7 Assignment


  

You had the chance earlier in the week to perform an article critique on ANOVA testing and obtain peer feedback. Now it is time to put all of that good practice to use and answer a social research question with the one-way ANOVA. As you head into the assignment, be sure and pay close attention to the assumptions of the test. Specifically, make sure the dependent and independent variables (factor) are amenable to use in the ANOVA (i.e., be sure to note levels of measurement).

For this Assignment, you will examine the one-way ANOVA based on a research question.

To prepare for this Assignment:

  • Review this week’s Learning      Resources and media program related to one-way ANOVA testing.
  • Using the SPSS software,      open the Afrobarometer dataset or the High School Longitudinal Study      dataset (whichever you choose) found in the Learning Resources for this      week.
  • Based on the dataset you      chose, construct a research question that can be answered with a one-way      ANOVA.
