2. What is the null hypothesis for your question?
3. What research design would align with this question?
4. What dependent variable was used and how is it measured?
5. What independent variable is used and how is it measured?
6. What other variables were added to the multiple regression models as controls?
7. What is the justification for adding the variables?
8. If you found significance, what is the strength of the effect?
9. Explain your results for a lay audience, explain what the answer to your research question.
Using the SPSS software, open the Afrobarometer dataset or the High School Longitudinal Study dataset
- Based on the dataset you chose, construct a research question that can be answered with a multiple regression analysis.
- Once you perform your multiple regression analysis, copy and paste the output into a Word document.
- Write a 1- to 2-page analysis of your multiple regression results for each research question. In your analysis, display the data for the output. Based on your results, provide an explanation of what the implications of social change might be.
