Below are 2 discussion post and a homework assignment

discussion post needs 150 words minimum for each and are to be answered separately with references if needed.

Week 5 Discussion Question 1

You have the task of identifying a question and creating 2 to 3 variables to complete a mini study. In this mini study, you will have a question, and you will collect the data for these 2 to 3 variables that answer the question you identified.

1. The adults who are invested in you should have an official role: professor, coach, counselor, pastor, parents or similar position of support. If you have difficulty reaching 6 adults to collect data from, you can use accountability partners.

2. The goal of this mini study is to identify how these invested adults use data about you to determine how they feel about the variable you selected.

3. Also determine how they measure movement in the data.

3. You will need to collect this data in a table or an Excel spreadsheet, then upload it directly into the discussion post so everyone can see it. There is no exception to this requirement.

4. You will need at least 6 participants.

5. In addition, you will identify whether the invested adults’ comments can be grouped into one of four psychological mindsets. This means: are they identifying behaviors in you that reflect your God-given ability, your belief in yourself, your attitude about life, and the things you need to do, or your motivation to do them?

6. Youre using this information to provide a psychological hypothesis about the framing of your participants for this mini study. You do not need to analyze this data in this upload, but all required information must be included for full credit, with 2 replies to classmates. Half credit will be given to student that do not have interaction with classmates.

Week 5 Discussion Question 2

Analyze the data uploaded in Discussion 1 from this week. You need to provide:

1. A null and alternative hypothesis using the proper notation.

2. You need to determine: a. central tendency, frequency, relative frequency, variance, standard deviation, of your data in a table that allows others to both see and understand your data. You will need at least 1 table per variable.

3. You will need to graph this analysis using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Spend some time selecting the most appropriate approach.

4. You will provide a narrative of this analysis results that follow the MEAL plan: M-main idea, E-evidence, A-analysis of the meaning of the results to your and your future career and life. L-link to the way you can use this information in your Christian worldview in support of data analysis results.
