Write a paper on given topics.
Topic 1: Inferential Stats
The task is to perform some simple (bivariate) tests of inferential statistics. You can use the database you created for homework assignment 1, or any other database containing at least 3 variables and at least 30-50 observations. The idea is to run one or two simple tests, you can decide which type of tests to use (e.g. cross tabs + Chi2 tests, comparisons of means, correlation, regression analysis). You will need to choose which method suits your purposes best. You should start with explicitly stating the question(s) you want to investigate. Then you should state the working and null hypothesis of your question(s). You should choose the right form of statistical test, perform the test and interpret the findings (size of effects, standard errors, statistical significance/ error probability). Please also state what you have to conclude on the basis of the hypothesis/es posed. You should interpret these findings not only in terms of statistical significance, but substantive size. Finally, you should conclude by arguing how one could possibly criticize your finding and/ or how you would refine the investigation method (more data, other tests, other variables...).
