Using your assigned topic and the relevant data set, develop and test three bivariate hypotheses. Your topic variable will be either an independent or a dependent variable in each hypothesis.

Perception towards Life satisfaction among university students
Abstract:
Life satisfaction is a subject of wellbeing and also termed as a measure of happiness. Previous literatures showed that the reason of stress among college students arises from issues of academic workload, future plans, financial and family matters as well as relationship with opposite sex. The objective of this study is to explore the life satisfaction among the college students and to examine their association with reference to workload and positive stress mindset and three hypothesis was framed to be test further by analysis. Correlation and linear regression use here for statistical analysis. The results concluded that older people are less satisfied than young ones towards their lives, there is a significant inverse relationship between workload and life satisfaction however a direct but insignificant relationship observed between positive stress mindset and life satisfaction.

Introduction:
The college life of young adults are proven to be most stressful periods since they are responsible for their health, present and future financial situations and struggling to manage their own lives and career (Lampman et al, 2007) which too hampers with their mental or psychological health. Life satisfaction is a subject of wellbeing and also termed as a measure of happiness. This is also an adjustment indicators affected by the lives and perceiveness of college students.
Previous literatures showed that the reason of stress among college students arises from issues of academic workload, future plans, financial and family matters as well as relationship with opposite sex (Darling, Howard et al, 2007; Chao, 2012). Although, the previous researches presented that stress among students also contribute towards positive indicators such as self-esteem and hardworking nature contributing towards their mental health (Tsitsas et al, 2019). Also, a study done by Altson and Dudley concluded that older persons are much stressed about their lives than younger ones, resulted into an inverse relationship between age and various indices examining life satisfaction. However, gender is not a consistent predictor of live satisfaction, because both males and females have different perceptions and preferences towards life and several things are not in common. In some cases, women found to be happier than men and vice versa in some cases too. Therefore, it is not taken as a hypothesized variable.
The objective of this study is to explore the life satisfaction among the college students and to examine their association with reference to workload and positive stress mindset.
Hypothesis to be tested:
Based on the previous research on the given area, three hypothesized relationships have framed and attempted to test in this study. The hypothesis are:
Hypothesis 1: there is an inverse relationship between age and life satisfaction.
Hypothesis 2: there is an inverse relationship between the work load and life satisfaction.
Hypothesis 3: there is a direct relationship between the positive stress mindset and the life satisfaction.
Method:
Participants:
The participants in the study consists of 579 students consists of 246 (42.5%) males and 333 (57.5%) females with a mean age of 22.2 years (SD= 2.5; range= 17 to 42). The majority of the students belongs to age group 21 or 22 years. With respect to relationship status, 304 (52.2%) were single, 264 (45.4%) were in a committed relationship and only 12 (2.1%) were married.
Measures:
The life satisfaction scale is a self-report measure of overall satisfaction, consist of 5 items and the responses were based on a 7 point-likert scale ranges from strongly disagree to strongly agree ( 1 to 7) where 1 indicates strongly disagree and indicates lower life satisfaction towards the response of the questions and 7 indicates greater life satisfaction.
