overview of survey and data
A researcher has administered an anxiety survey to students enrolled in graduate level statistics courses. The survey included three subscales related to statistics anxiety: (a) interpretation anxiety, (b) test anxiety, and (c) fear of asking for help. The survey also included three subscales related to attitude toward statistics. For the items that comprised the scales, students were asked to respond using a 5 point Likert-type scale. Higher scores on the anxiety subscales implied higher levels of anxiety, and higher scores on the attitude subscales implies a more positive attitude toward statistics. In addition to the statistics anxiety subscales, the survey contained a subscale related to the use of statistical software and a subscale related to self-perceived confidence concerning general computer use. Students responded to items on the statistical software subscale using a response range from (1) Strongly Disagree to (7) Strongly Agree. For the computer confidence subscale, students responded to items using a range from (1) Strongly Disagree to (5) Strongly Agree. For each of these subscales, higher scores implied higher levels of confidence. The researcher determined the score for each subscale by computing the mean response for the items associated with the subscale. This technique resulted in subscales that had the same possible range and the items that made up the subscale. A subsample of the researcher’s dataset contains the following variables that should be used for completing the four final projects. You can find this data in the Final Project Folder. The variables included in the dataset are: Project 1 First, the researcher wants to get a better understanding of his data. This is always a wise first step. Use SPSS and your knowledge of descriptive statistics to answer the following questions about confidence using statistical software subscale. Remember to round your answers to the nearest hundredth place for all descriptive statistics. Failure to round will result in a deduction of points.
