Statistics Requires SPSS Exploratory Data Analysis Project

Part A. SPSS Assignment
The
“Activity 9.sav” file contains a dataset of a researcher interested in
finding the best way to educate elementary age children in mathematics.
In particular, she thinks that 5th grade girls do better in small class
sizes while boys excel in larger classes. Through the school district,
she has arranged a pilot program in which some classroom sizes are
reduced prior to the state-wide mathematics competency assessment. In
the dataset, you will find the following variables:
Participant: unique identifier
Gender: Male (M) or Female (F)
Classroom:
Small (1) – no more than 10 children
Medium (2) – between 11 and 19 children
Large (3) – 20 or more students
Score – final score on the statewide competency assessment.
Now do the following:
Exploratory Data Analysis.

Perform exploratory data analysis on all variables in the data set.Realizing that you have six groups, be sure that your exploratoryanalysis is broken down by group. When possible, include appropriategraphs to help illustrate the dataset.
Give a one to two paragraph write up of the data once you have done this.
Create an APA style table that presents descriptive statistics for the sample.
Factorial ANOVA. Perform a factorial ANOVA using the “Activity 9.sav” data set.
Is there a main effect of gender? If so, explain the effect. Usepost hoc tests when necessary (or explain why they are not required inthis specific case).
Is there a main effect of classroom size? If so, explain the effect.Use post hoc tests when necessary (or explain why they are not requiredin this specific case).
Is there an interaction between your two variables? If so, using post hoc tests, describe these differences.
Is there support for the researcher’s hypothesis that girls would dobetter than boys in classrooms with fewer students? Explain youranswer.
Write up the results in APA style and interpret them. Be sure thatyou discuss both main effects and the presence/absence of an interactionbetween the two.
Part B. Applying Analytical Strategies to an Area of Research Interest
Briefly restate your research area of interest. (Provided in files for area of interest
Analysis ofCovariance. Using your area of interest, identify one independent andtwo dependent variables, such that the dependent variables would likelybe covariates. Now, assume you conducted an ANCOVA that shows both thefirst independent variable as well as the covariate significantlypredicts the dependent variable. Create a mock ANCOVA output table (seeSPSS Output 12.6 in your text for an example) that supports therelationship shown above. Report your mock finding APA style.
You should now have the following file:
