Chapter 4 Results
I paid for Qualtrics under the assumption that the information would be somewhat easier to understand.
I have no idea how to write chapter 4. I understand very little.
Some of the instructions follow:
Instructions . The following information must be included in Chapter.
CHAPTER 4. RESULTS
Background
Description of the Sample
Hypothesis Testing
Summary
Introduction
• Is there a brief introduction stating the purpose of the chapter, a description of how Chapter 4 fits into the overall dissertation, and the organization or main sections of the chapter?
Typically 1 page
Description of the Sample
• Is there a description of the size and power analysis?
• Is there a description of the demographics of the sample (e.g., gender, race, socioeconomic status, and so on)?
• Is there a description of the external validity?
• Is there a description of the following: the original number of participants invited to participate or the sampling frame size, the actual response rate, the number of participants who withdrew during some phase of the study, and any similar information bearing on the analysis of the data described?
• Is there a description of any other aspects or influences on the sample participants and their participation that might bear on the findings? *if required
Typically 2-4 pages
Hypothesis Testing
• Is there a description of the statistics performed to test the hypotheses for each research question?
• Does the description include the following?
• Assumptions made about the data
• Assumptions needed for each inferential statistical test, how the assumptions were tested, the outcomes of the tests, and what was done if the data did not meet the assumptions
• Descriptive statistics for each variable (If you used transformed data, report descriptive statistics for both the raw and transformed data.)
• A clear description of the inferential statistical test, along with the test’s statistical results reported in APA style
• The obtained power and effect size for each test
• The alpha level at which the null hypothesis was rejected
• A clear statement of whether you accepted or rejected each null hypothesis
• Figures and/or tables (in APA style) that clearly present your results
• Any post-hoc tests (e.g., Tukey’s HSD) that were performed and the statistical results
Summary of the Hypothesis Testing
• Are each research question and its corresponding hypotheses summarized separately?
A common organizational structure is:
1. Hypothesis (or research question) 1 results.
2. Hypothesis (or research question) 2 results.
3. Hypothesis (or research question) 3 results.
4. And so on . . .
Typically 5-10 pages
Summary
• Is there a summary of the answers to the original research question in terms of the hypotheses or sub-questions that the analysis answered?
Typically 1-2 pages
I have also included what I have managed to get on paper to uploaded. I have attached a ton of exported data from Qualtrics. I can also share my screen to show the full results of the study.
