Choosing Appropriate Statistical Tests

Title Your name Subject and Section Professor’s Name Date 1 How did the authors of the related study conduct their statistical tests? Did they reject or fail to reject their hypotheses? On what basis? Thomas & Thomas (2017) employed independent sample t-tests and z-tests of independent proportions on the exam scores and on the exam-skipping behavior of the participants from the experimental and the control group, the former of whom received instructional communications. Hypothesis 1A was supported in that the analysis revealed that struggling students who received Personalized Instructional Communications earned significantly higher scores on Exam 2 than those in the other groups; however, for later tests, Hypotheses 1B and 1C were not supported. Moreover, Hypothesis 3A proved that the level of exam-skipping in Exam 2 was significantly lowered; however, Hypotheses 3B and 3C were non-supported, and all the hypotheses related to the successive students were not supported. 2 Which statistical tests are appropriate for your hypotheses and design? My project proposal aims to compare the effects of factors like resource distribution, socioeconomic status, and policy shift on stakes scores; I deemed multiple linear regression tests appropriate. Using this test, one can assess how these factors affect the outcome variable, combined with the oth...
