Step 1: State the hypothesis (null and alternate). Step 2: State your alpha (unless requested otherwise, this is always set to alpha = .05). Step 3: Collect the data (use one of the data sets). Step 4: Calculate your statistic and p value (this is where you run SPSS and examine your output files). Step 5: Retain or reject the null hypothesis. (This is where you report the results of your analyses t (df) = t value, p = sig. level). Step 6: Assess the Risk of Type I and Type II Error (did the data meet the assumptions of the statistic; effect size; and sample size). Step 7: State your results in APA style and format. Research Questions Question 1: How does LIGHT ON ANXIETY compare to the state’s figures on providing services to first-time admissions? The State published a report that, on average, counseling centers provide about 60% of counseling services to first time patients. Is LIGHT ON ANXIETY’s percent of services provided different from the state average? 1. Use Select Cases to choose First time patients (NewPatient = 0). 2. Run a one sample t-test using Usage as the dependent variable, and 60.0 as the test value. 3. Report the descriptive statistics (means and standard deviations), assumptions tests, as well as tests of statistical significance (t value, df, and p value). 4. What do these results suggest? Question 2: Is there a difference between first time and repeat admissions in their overall satisfaction with LIGHT ON ANXIETY services as rated in January? 1. Run an Independent Samples t-test. 2. Use PatientType as the independent variable. 3. Use Overall Satisfaction in January (satjan) as the dependent variable.
