Statistical Test and P-Value

A statistical test estimates how consistent an observed statistic is compared to a hypothetical population of similarly obtained statistics – known as the test, or ‘null’ distribution. The further the observed statistic diverges from that test population’s median the less compatible it is with that population, and the less probable it is that such a […]

Alpha Level of Significance

What makes significance testing a fascinating and important case for investigation is that it appears to have dispersed not because of its appropriateness in various research circumstances, but notwithstanding of it. It may certainly be the case – and I can empirically examine that an increase in the use of probability sampling refreshed the application of […]

Confidence Interval

A Confidence interval is a range of values that likely would contain an unknown population parameter. Confidence level refers to the percentage of probability, or certainty, that the confidence interval would contain the true population parameter when you draw a random sample many times. Confidence intervals are described broadly as tools for extracting necessary information […]

Measuring postpartum stress- example of Dependent and Independent Variables, with e-notation

Describe how you think the research in the article is useful (e.g., what population is it helping? What problem is it solving?). Using Y=f(X) +E notation, identify the independent and dependent variables. How might the research models presented be wrong? What types of error might be present in the reported research?             Women undergo […]

Example of Quantitative Research Calculations: Metric Variable of Number of Adults in Household

For the Metric Variable of number of adults in household (ADULTCT), the descriptive statistics is below: The metric variable of number of adults in household show N=51451 with missing value of 136. The values for the mean, median and mode for this statistics are 3.64, 3.00, and 2. The std. error of mean is minute […]

Important of Quantitative Measurement in Research

Many of our today’s knowledge of facts and findings are being achieved via the burden of experimentations and making quantities or measurements. Some of the measurements done by other researchers may be called unaccepted value of error or may have missing details. However, I believed errors occur in many aspects of conducting research. For example, […]

Dissertation Oral Defense

An oral defense is an opportunity for you to demonstrate how much you know about your subject area. It is also a time for the committee to come together and, at the proposal stage, articulate their suggestions and concerns for your project. Your final oral defense is a time for the committee to “quiz” you […]

What is a dissertation committee?

A dissertation committee is a team that works together to help you complete a scholarly work – your dissertation. Teams are great because with a team you can assemble people with different areas of expertise that will result in the best work possible. Teams can be difficult because you (as the writer) may feel as […]
