Overview of the Research Process
Page 5
DISCUSSION SECTION
Interpretation Were the hypotheses supported?
Why or why not? Any limitations? What are
the Implications? Suggestions for further
research?
RESULTS SECTION
Data Analysis Descriptive Statistics Inferential
Statistics
METHODS SECTION
Measures or Instruments Validity - What did we
measure? Reliability How precise was the
measure
METHODS SECTION
Participant Characteristics Who did you
sample? Procedures How did we do the
observations?
Also look at APA outline (pp 14-16)
AT THE END OF LITERATURE REVIEW OR INTRODUCTION
Based on theory literature review, what is
(are) the question(s) you want to address? What
are respondents attitude toward research and
statistics? Are attitudes toward research and
statistics related? Do males and females have
different attitudes? Do participants in
different age groups have different attitudes?

11
Lets Launch SPSS
  • Menu Bar
  • Data Transform are used to manipulate the data
    in data editor (i.e., spread sheet)
  • Analyze and Graphs are used to create output
  • Tabs (bottom left hand corner of data editor, p.
    6)
  • Data View
  • Columns Variables (e.g., questions on survey)
  • Rows Cases (e.g., survey)
  • Variable View
  • How we edit the variables
  • Give variables their names, labels, etc
  • Enter you survey into Data View

12
Editing the Raw Data
  • Variable View
  • Tab (located lower left hand corner)
  • Pages 8 9 of your handout

13
Retrieving an Edited Data
  • Save the data set to your desktop.
  • Call it edited data your initials
  • E.g., editeddataRR
  • Now we are going to open up a new data set.
  • File gt open gt Data
  • Navigate to your desktop
  • Open up the data file that you downloaded from
    our website.

14
Review of Workshop
  • We inputted raw data (from the survey) into the
    data editor
  • We edited a raw data file in variable view
  • pp. 8 - 9
  • We retrieved an edited file and perform some
    basic statistical analyses.

15
Transforming Variable (p 10)
  • Recode
  • Data may be need to be recoded for a variety of
    reasons
  • Examples
  • common for reversing the scales
  • Converting a continuous variable into discrete
    ordinal variable
  • Transform gt Recode gt Into Different Variables
  • Computing a New Variable
  • Can create new variables that may be a function
    of pre-existing variables
  • Transform gt Compute

  • Different categories
  • Rankable categories
  • Constant equal-sized Intervals
  • Absolute Zero (physical significance) (e.g.,
    temperature in Kelvin, time)
  • Interval (temperature on Celsius and Fahrenheit,
    age)
  • Different categories
  • Rankable categories
  • Constant equal-sized Intervals (can be expressed
    numerically)
  • Ordinal (e.g.., dominance hierarchy)
  • Different Categories
  • Categories are rankable
  • Nominal (a.k.a. attributes)
  • Different Categories (e.g.., sex, species,
    phylum, location)
