1 ESP 178 Applied Research Methods 2/23: Quantitative Analysis Data Preparation Data coding create codebook that defines each variable, its response scale, how it was coded Data entry for mail surveys and in-person surveys; check for accuracy (e.g. enter data twice) Missing values delete surveys with too many missing values or impute missing values Data transformation e.g. convert positive to negative responses; convert ratio variables to nominal Descriptive Statistics: univariate analysis to describe general properties of one variable Frequency distributions and histograms to show central tendency, variation, and skewness; is it a normal distribution, i.e. a bell-shaped curve? Purpose Measure Variable Type Definition Measures of Ratio (sometimes Arithmetic average central tendency Median Ordinal, ratio Middle value (or average of two middle values if even number of cases) Mode Best for nominal Most frequent value Measures of Range Ratio (sometimes Highest value lowest value dispersion Variance Ratio (sometimes Average squared difference of each case from the mean Standard deviation Ratio (sometimes Square root of the variance Note: This table ignores interval variables which are not common in this field. Inferential Statistics: to look for associations between two or more variables Null hypothesis means are not different H 0 : µ 1 = µ 2 Alternative hypothesis means are different H 1 : µ 1 µ 2 p-value: Probability of obtaining an effect at least as extreme as the one in the sample data if the null hypothesis is true. In other words, probability that the association is due to chance. Goal is p-values less than 0.05 (5% significance level) or 0.01 (1% significance level). Independent Variable Nominal or Ordinal Ratio or interval Dependent Variable Nominal or ordinal Crosstabulation with Chi-square test Logistic regression Other forms of modeling Ratio or interval Difference of means with t-test (if 2 categories) Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with F-test (if multiple categories Correlation coefficient Linear regression Other forms of modeling Chi-square: Compares expected frequencies in cells to observed frequencies in cells F-statistic: Compares variation between groups to variation within groups Multivariate analysis: Allows us to test causal hypothesis with non-experimental data by testing for relationship between independent and dependent variables while controlling for other variables that might cause a spurious relationship.
