Assignment 1: Testing for Correlation and Bivariate Regression /
To prepare for this Assignment:Review this week’s Learning Resources and media program related to regression and correlation.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 Pearson correlation and bivariate regression.Once you perform your correlation and bivariate regression analysis, review Chapter 11 of the Wagner text to understand how to copy and paste your output into your Word document.For this Assignment:Write a 2- to 3-paragraph analysis of your correlation and bivariate regression results for each research question. In your analysis, display the data for the output. Based on your results, provide an explanation of what the implications of social change might be.Assignment 2: Correlation and Bivariate Regression in PracticeWrite a 2- to 3-page critique of the article you found. In your critique, include responses to the following:Why did the authors use correlation or bivariate regression?Do you think it’s the most appropriate choice? Why or why not?Did the authors display the data?Does the results table stand-alone (i.e., are you able to interpret the study from it?) Why or why not?
