What items were reversed? Why were they reversed? How did we test reliability? (Hint: Crohnbach’s alpha.) What did we find from that? What did we conclude about our items? What did we do next? (Created a mean score of all the 20 items.)

  4. Survey project: • Results • Descriptive Statistics: • DV: Mean, standard deviation, possible range vs. actual range of scores. Histogram and skew. • IVs: How many participants in each level of your IV? • Inferential Statistics: • What test did you use? • What is your p-value criterion? • Remind us of your hypothesis, report results. • Same for the second IV. • Conclude results.

  5. Survey project: • Discussion: Hourglass • What did you find? • Relate to other findings? • What do your results mean? • Limitations • Future direction • References • Tables: 2 tables, with the mean, SD, and ‘n’ for each of your IVs • Figures: Survey, one figure.
