Power Point Slides by Ronald J. Shope in collaboration with John W. Creswell Chapter 7 Analyzing and Interpreting Quantitative Data

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Steps in quantitative analysis and interpretation How do you prepare the data for analysis? How do you analyze the data? How do you report the results? How do you discuss the results?

Educational Research 2e: Creswell How do you prepare the data for analysis? Inputting data Score data by assigning numeric codes to responses Create codebook Use information from instrument when possible as part of coding scheme Create data file in data grid Create variable, value labels Clean database, missing values

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Determine types of Scores to analyze Single item Summed scores Difference scores

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Selecting a statistical program Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) most popular Other programs –Mini-tab –Statview –SAS (JMP/JMPIN) –StatPac Use mainframe, PC or Mac platforms

Educational Research 2e: Creswell How do you analyze the data? Conduct descriptive analysis Conduct descriptive analysis –Measures of central tendency –Measures of variability –Measures of relative standing

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Run Descriptive statistics Descriptive Statistics Central TendencyVariabilityRelative Standing Mean Median Mode Variance Standard Deviation Range Z-Score Percentile Ranks

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Conduct inferential analysis Hypothesis testing Confidence interval Effect size

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Conduct hypothesis tests Identify a null and alternative hypothesis Set the level of significance (alpha level) for rejecting the null hypothesis collect data Compute the sample statistic Make a decision about rejecting/failing to reject

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Computing the sample statistic Inferential Statistics Parametric Nonparametric Parametric Nonparametric Parametric Chi-Square Analysis Phi Coefficient Pearson Correlation Coefficient Regression Coefficient Spearman Rho Kendall’s Tau Continuous (iv) Continuous (dv) Continuous (iv)- Continuous (dv) Continuous (iv)- Continuous (dv) Continuous (iv)- Continuous (dv) T-Test Analysis of Variance Analysis of Covariance Mann- Witney U-Test Kruskall Wallis Test Friedman Two-Way Anova Discriminant Analysis Point Biserian Correlation

Educational Research 2e: Creswell How to select an appropriate statistic (see Table 7.5) Determine the type of quantitative research question or hypothesis you want to analyze Identify the number of independent variables Identify the number of dependent variables Identify whether covariates and the number of covariates are used in the research question or hypothesis

Educational Research 2e: Creswell How to select an appropriate statistic (see Table 7.5) Consider the scale of measurement for your independent variable(s) in the research question or hypothesis Identify the scale of measurement for the dependent variables (e.g. continuous or categorical) Determine if the distribution of the scores is normal or skewed

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Normal Curve 34% 13.5% 2.5% Standard Deviations Mean

Educational Research 2e: Creswell The Normal Curve of Means Differences of All Possible Outcomes if the Null Hypothesis is True Reject the Null Hypothesis Reject the Null Hypothesis Extremely low Probability Values if Null Hypothesis is True (Critical Region) Alpha=.025 Extremely low Probability Values if Null Hypothesis is True (Critical Region) Alpha=.025 Two-Tailed Test High Probability Values if the Null Hypothesis is True

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Outcomes of hypothesis testing: Type I and type II errors State of Affairs in the Population Decision made by the Researcher Based on the Statistical Test Value Type I Error (false positive) (probability= Alpha) Correctly not rejected no error Correctly rejected no error (probability= power) Type II Error (false negative) (probability= Beta) Reject the Null Hypothesis No Effect- Null True Effect Exists Null False Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis

Educational Research 2e: Creswell Other inferential tests Confidence intervals Effect sizes

Educational Research 2e: Creswell How do you report the results? Tables summarize statistical information Figures (charts, pictures, drawings) portray variables and their relationships Detailed explanations about statistical results

Educational Research 2e: Creswell How do you discuss the results? Summarize major results Explain why they occurred Advance limitations Suggest future research
