correlation application and interpretation assignment with 5 sections consisting of questions. The template is attached labeled (PSY-FPX7864) and the reference for the spss data is in the attached...

The DAA Template has five sections

In Step 1:

• Name the four variables used in this analysis and whether they are categorical or continuous.


• State a research question, null hypothesis, and alternate hypothesis for one X-Y pair. For example, you could articulate a research question, null hypothesis, and alternate hypothesis for quiz1 (X) and final (Y).

Step 2:Testing Assumptions

Test for one of the assumptions of correlation—normality.

• Create a descriptive statistics table in SPSS to assess normality. This table should include the four variables named above.


• Paste the table in the DAA Template.


• Interpret the skewness and kurtosis values and how you determined whether the assumption of normality was met or violated.

Step 3: Results and Interpretation

In Step 3:

• Paste the SPSS output of the intercorrelation matrix for all specified variables:
  
  
  • First, report the lowest magnitude correlation in the intercorrelation matrix, including degrees of freedom, correlation coefficient, p value, and effect size. Interpret the effect size. Specify whether or not to reject the null hypothesis for this correlation.
  
  
  • Second, report the highest magnitude correlation in the intercorrelation matrix, including degrees of freedom, correlation coefficient, p value, and effect size. Interpret the effect size. Specify whether or not to reject the null hypothesis for this correlation.
  
  
  • Third, report the correlation between GPA and final, including degrees of freedom, correlation coefficient, p value, and effect size. Interpret the effect size. Analyze the correlation in terms of the null hypothesis.
  
  
  
  


• Interpret statistical results against the null hypothesis, and state whether it is accepted or rejected.

Step 4:Statistical Conclusions

In Step 4:

• Provide a brief summary of your analysis and the conclusions drawn.


• Analyze the limitations of the statistical test.


• Provide any possible alternate explanations for the findings and potential areas for future exploration.

Step 5: Application

In Step 5:

• Analyze how you might use correlations in your field of study.


• Name an independent variable and dependent variable that would work for such an analysis and why studying it may be important to the field or practice.
