Assignment 6: Interpret a Correlation Analysis
Instructions
For this assignment, you will run and interpret a correlation analysis using SPSS. The following vignette will inform you of the context for this assignment. Since Correlation Analyses requires A statistical hypothesis to determine if the relationship between two variables is statistically significant, you will use the six-step hypothesis testing process (noted below). This will allow you to learn the statistical hypothesis testing methodology and bivariate analysis techniques (Pearson correlation coefficient) at the same time A data file is provided for use in this assignment. Also, review the section on Presentation of Statistical Results and Explaining Quantitative Findings in a Narrative Report in the NU School of Business Best Practice Guide for Quantitative Research Design and Methods in Dissertations.
A manager is interested in studying the associations between a number of variables. These variables are age, years of experience, level of education, engagement, job satisfaction, and performance level. She thinks that employees with more years of experience are more engaged and satisfied. She thinks that younger employees will perform at a higher level, on average.
1. State the null and alternative hypotheses sets. (Note, there will be 3 sets)
2. Select the significance level.
3. Identify the p values (the “Sig.” values in the correlation table) for each test and state the decision rule on whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
4. Compare the p values with the significance level (in #2) to conclude whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
5. Explain the related business decision.
After conducting the above analysis please structure your paper as follows:
• Introduction to the assignment
• Hypotheses
• Results of the analysis (Hint. You may use an APA-style table to display these data. SPSS output images are not in APA style).
• Did the analysis support each of the hypotheses?
• Explain what decisions the manager might make using these findings.
Length: 4 to 6 pages not including title and reference page
References: Include a minimum of 3 scholarly resources.
Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.
Learning Outcomes: 1, 4, 5
• Evaluate parametric statistical tests.
