Choose a recent quantitative study that has been referred to either in a textbook you are reading or in a lecture that you have attended. What was the size of the sample used? Was a one- or a two-tailed significance level used and do you think that this ‘tailedness’ was appropriate? What could the minimum size of the sample have been to meet the critical level of significance adopted in this study? What was the size of the effect or association, and do you think that this shows that the predictor or independent variable may play a reasonable role in explaining the criterion or dependent variable? Are there other variables that you think may have shown a stronger effect or association?
