To prepare for this Assignment:

• Review the Learning      Resources and the media programs related to t tests.
• For additional support,      review the Skill Builder: Research Design and Statistical      Design and the Skill Builder: Hypothesis Testing for      Independent Samples t-test, which you can find by navigating back to      your Blackboard Course Home Page. From there, locate the Skill Builder      link in the left navigation pane.
• Also, review the t test      scenarios found in this week’s Learning Resources and consider the three      different approaches of t tests:
  • Independent sample t test
  • Paired sample t test
  • One sample t test
• Based on each of the three      research scenarios provided, open the High School Longitudinal Study      dataset or the Afrobarometer dataset from this week’s Learning Resources      using SPSS software, then choose and run the appropriate t test.
• Once you perform your t test      analyses, review Chapter 11 of the Wagner text to understand how to copy      and paste your output into your Word document.
