For each question, provide the output provided by SPSS/PASW, formatted in APA style (SPSS/PASW does not present output in APA format), along with your notations and results as indicated in the text instructions, and a 2–3 paragraph summary regarding the results of your analyses

Descriptive Statistics

1. Using the grades.sav file select all variables except lastname, firstname, grade, passfail. Compute descriptive statistics including mean, standard deviation, kurtosis, skewness. Edit so that you eliminate " S.E. Kurt" and "S.E. Skew" making your chart easier to interpret. Edit the output to fit on one page.

• Draw a line through any variable for which descriptives are meaningless (either they are categorical or they are known to not be normally distributed.)
• Place an "*" next to variables that are in the idea range for both skewness and kurtosis.
• Place this table into a WORD document. To do this, simply highlight the SPSS output that you want copied and then using the command (control C). You can then paste (Control V) the highlighted output in a word file that you have already created. Once this output is in the WORD file, you can edit it in any way you wish. Another way to accomplish this is by EXPORTING the file to WORD.
• After you have completed editing the output in word, do write several paragraphs about the meaningless descriptive, the idea ranges for skewness and kurtosis, and comment on the minimum, maximum, means and standard deviations for the variable where these numbers are meaningful.

1. Crosstabulation and Chi-Square Analyses

File: grades.sav. Variables: gender by ethnic. Select: observed count, expected count, unstandardized residuals. Compute: Chi-Square, Phi and Cramer’s V. Edit to fit on one page, print out, perform the 6 operations below. Once you have the output, save it in a word file so that you can edit the output as directed. Keep in mind that the answer to question #3 (unstandardized residuals) is simply the observed value minus the expected value.

• 1.Circle the observed (actual) values
• 2. Box the expected values
• 3.Put an * next to the unstandardized residuals
• 4. Underline the significance value that shows whether observed and expected values differ significantly.
• 9.Is there a problem with low-count cells?
• 10. If there is a problem, what would you do about it?

Look at the value of PHI and highlight it in your output. This is a measure of the strength of the relationship between the 2 variables you are analyzing. Tell us if this is strong or weak.

1. T Tests

For questions 1-3 , perform the following operations

B. Circle the two mean values that are being compared

D. for statistically significant results (p <.05) write up each finding in standard APA format

The only output you need to use for the word file assignment are the

• Means and standard deviations for gender, quizzes 1-5, final and total and
• The T-test tables for each comparison

Do not use the levene test output. For now, just ignore this extra statistic that is automatically printed out by the t-test procedure.

1. Using the grades,sav file, compare men with women ( gender) for quiz1, quiz2, quiz3, quiz4, quiz5, final, total.
2. Using the grades.sav file, determine whether the following pairings produce significant differences: quiz1 with quiz 2. Quiz1 with quiz3, quiz1 with quiz4, quiz1 with quiz5.
3. Using the grades.sav file, compare the GPA variable ( gpa) with the mean GPA of the university of 2.89.
