Question.3872 - Instructions The complete instructions for this assignment are in the Research Methods Project Handbook, but I will give you some brief guidance here. Drafts are not due this week. Check Canvas for the due date. Your Methods Section should include these 4 sections and each section has its own heading, typed on its own line right before the paragraph for that section. Participants – This section usually includes a description of those who participated in the study you are conducting including the number of participants and some simple demographic information (e.g. mean/median age, gender percentage, race/ethnicity percentage, etc.). This also includes any explanation of why some participants’ data were dropped from the analysis (e.g. they voluntarily left, didn’t complete the survey, were deemed unfit to participate). For your studies, we are using data sets that were created by someone else, so demographic data are limited. However, you should have an idea about how many people you included in your sample and how many of those didn’t provide complete information for what you are studying. Measures/Materials – This section usually includes information about the items you needed to conduct your study as well as any surveys, tests, and questions used. For your studies, you should cite the data set your data came from and give a description of what the data set is measuring, who compiled it, and any information about the organization that used it. This information should be in the Codebooks included on the data set sheet where you found your data Procedures – This section usually includes a detailed description of your experimental or data collection procedures. For an experiment, this section can be quite lengthy, but is very important. This should be detailed enough that anyone reading this paper could take this section and replicate your study. For most archival research, this section is omitted, but I want you to still write something for this section. For your studies, the information about how data was collected may not be readily available to you. Basic procedures for data collection might be included in the Codebook for the data set. However, you should write about the process you went through to prepare your data for analysis. Include any decisions to remove participants from the sample and any decisions you made about how the data are to be analyzed. Design – This is an explanation of the statistical design of your study. This would typically include any talk of decisions regarding statistical analyses, which ones you did or planned to do. For your studies, this section should be simple and straightforward. All I need to know is what statistical test you intend to use to analyze your data. You should have thought about this already in Assignment 5. You don’t have to make this section long, just state the basics.
