Review M1A2, the SPSS Tutorial on Data Handling, from this and what\u00a0you now know after having read chapters 5-7 in the textbook by George\u00a0and Mallery (pp. 72-79 specifically), and having completed the SPSS\u00a0Tutorial on Data Handling in Module 1, generate a question that you may\u00a0have that the data in M1A2, could answer. For example (and now you\u00a0cannot use this question) What is the number of student participants in the\u00a0study by year in college?2. Next, open SPSS, and locate the M1A2 file that you generated when you\u00a0completed that assignment. Using the skills that you learned after\u00a0completing M1A2, the SPSS Tutorial on Data Handling, the reading and\u00a0lessons in chapters 5-7 in the textbook by George and Mallery (pp. 72-79\u00a0specifically),and parts 1 &amp; 2 in the Steinberg textbook (pp. 43-47\u00a0specifically), run the descriptive statistic that will answer your question.3. Create a histogram. You may want to superimpose a normal curve on it.\u00a0Feel free to use other tables and graphs. MOST IMPORTANTLY, KEEP\u00a0THIS SIMPLE; THE QUESTION THAT YOU ASK IS DESCRIPTIVE. HOWMUCH, HOW OFTEN. USE ONLY ON E STATISTIC AND ONE VARIABLE\u00a0AT A TIME. DO NOT ASK A QUESTION WITH TWO VARIABLES. WE ARE\u00a0DOING DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS. WE ARE NOT DOING INFERENTIALSTATS YET.\u00a04. Compare the look of your graph to the statistics on Table 5 (located in\u00a0theModule 2 online lecture under Characterizing Frequency\u00a0Distributions (1 of 2).5. Discuss what you found. How did running the descriptive statistic answer\u00a0your question? Interpret the data in terms of the behavior of each variable.\u00a0Use the vocabulary and statistical language presented in this module to\u00a0describe your graph and findings.6. Discuss your finding with your classmates by commenting on at least two of\u00a0your peers posts and responding to what is written about your post\u00a0by Wednesday, January 28, 2015.7. As you describe what you found, be sure you give credit to any sources\u00a0(our textbooks etc.) where you paraphrase or quote definitions, meanings\u00a0etc. and use APA style in your works cited\/bibliography at the end of your\u00a0paper.Discuss these findings with your classmates and instructor online.Your attached file with the results of the analysis needs to be in Microsoft Word\u00a0format.(During your dissertation days, you will examine your own data yourself much the\u00a0way we are doing it in this section if you collect quantitative data)All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing\u00a0sources.Assignment 1 Grading CriteriaApplied descriptive statistics.Posed question on single stat or set of\u00a0statistics.Generated frequency distribution\u00a0histograms.Provided interpretation of data using\u00a0appropriate vocabulary from the Module.Provided substantive comments to at\u00a0least two classmates postings.Wrote in a clear, concise, and organized\u00a0manner; demonstrated ethical scholarship\u00a0in accurate representation and attribution\u00a0of sources, displayed accurate spelling,\u00a0grammar, and punctuation.Total:MaximumPoints44444424<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unit 2: Module 2 &#8211; M2 Assignment 1 DiscussionAssignment 1: Working with Descriptive Statistics1.
