RESEARCH REPORT SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS FINAL REPORT MUST INCLUDE: a.The RESEARCH REPORT (hard copy, type written, double-spaced) TABLES & FIGURES depicting data analysis results must appear (e.g., copied & pasted) in the body of the report where they are discussed (NOT as an appendix at the end of the paper). Your report must also include a list of REFERENCES containing complete and proper citation (APA style) for all sources that you have used/adopted/borrowed from/quoted/paraphrased, etc. The REFERENCE list must include at least 10 references (sources). These must have been appropriately cited in the body of the report. (see for the APA style). An APPENDIX containing a hard copy of your SPSS data analysis PRINTOUTS NOTE: The above submitted materials will be kept by the instructor and NOT returned to you (Keep a copy for yourself).

DATA ANALYSIS AND REPORTING GUIDELINES IN THE METHODOLOGY SECTION Always describe your: Research sample and its size (e.g., 150 employees of several organizations) Research sample’s demographic composition (% men vs. women etc.) Present reliability data (only for multi-item summated scales) IN THE RESULTS AND DISCUSSION SECTION Always start with: Examination of the appropriate descriptive statistics (e.g., means, frequencies, etc.) Discuss the findings/conclusions that you may be able to infer from them. Make sure that in your enthusiasm to perform more sophisticated analyses you would not ignore presenting these simple but often very insightful information.

DATA ANALYSIS AND REPORTING GUIDELINES IN THE RESULTS AND DISCUSSION SECTION (continued) When appropriate, examine, present, and discuss separate subgroup descriptive statistics If necessary, also present the corresponding group comparison statistical test (i.e., ANOVA or Chi-Square) results. Examine correlations among metric variables and briefly discuss the more important/interesting/intriguing findings. When appropriate/applicable, present multiple regression analysis results and discuss the implications.

DATA ANALYSIS AND REPORTING GUIDELINES For an example of reporting and discussing research results, see Pages of Hemmasi, M., & Graf, L.A., 1993, "Determinants of faculty voting behavior in union representation elections: A multivariate model," Journal of Management, 19 (1), Hemmasi, M., & Graf, L.A., 1993, "Determinants of faculty voting behavior in union representation elections: A multivariate model," Journal of Management, 19 (1),
