Portfolio of Statistical Exercises
For this portfolio of statistical exercises you will be presented with FIVE research questions and datasets which you need to conduct the relevant statistical test(s) for and write-up the findings in an appropriate format. You should attempt each question. The mark that you receive will reflect how well you have answered all FIVE research questions and therefore missing any questions out will adversely affect you mark.

Portfolio of Statistical Exercises
For this portfolio of statistical exercises you will be presented with FIVE research questions and datasets which you need to conduct the relevant statistical test(s) for and write-up the findings in an appropriate format. You should attempt each question. The mark that you receive will reflect how well you have answered all FIVE research questions and therefore missing any questions out will adversely affect you mark.
For each exercise requiring data analysis you are required to conduct and then report the findings of an appropriate analysis of the data provided in the reporting style that we have shown you. You should screen the data prior to any analyses and routinely report appropriate estimates of effect size and other relevant statistical information where appropriate. You should also include appropriate and clearly expressed hypotheses.
You should include any calculations and all relevant SPSS outputs (e.g.., data screening checks, analyses, etc) as appendices.
For each question/exercise you should include the following sections:
Hypothesis or hypotheses: This should be clearly written and explain what you are testing for based upon the description of the research question.
Results: As stated above, in this section you should justify your selection of the test used and write up the results in the reporting style you have been shown.
Discussion: There should be a brief (i.e., a paragraph) discussion of the findings of the results in light of the research question.
Appendix: Please include any calculations and all relevant SPSS outputs for the question at the end of the answer to the question (in other words, don’t have a single appendix at the end with all of the outputs for all of the questions – it makes it more difficult for us to check them for an assessment like this).
