Treatment of Data and Hypothesis in Research
During the research, there was data that was collected and having been plotted on the histogram and the appropriate scatter plots, the obtained results gave a descriptive portrayal of the finding from the variables. The histogram and the scatter plot gave the pictorial correlation between the time spent and the frequency of the attendance of the gym session with the audio and visual aids and on the other hand without the aids. The descriptive approach enabled the clear display of the findings such that the correlations were seen clearly hence giving a descriptive statistics at the end of the collection of the data. This descriptive data hence has the potential of giving the researcher easy time in explaining the correlation between the variables involved. The descriptive data also gives the researcher the basic information about the variables that are in a dataset for easy understanding (The Regents of the University of Michigan, 2013).
The data that was collected from the sample size can be said to have the potential inferential in line with the objectives of the research. Inferential statistics is derived from a sample size obtained from the general population, and...
The inferential statistics in this research was used to estimate parameters, in this case taking the sample size and the collected data to conclusively say that the use of the visual and audio aids in the gym increases the time spent within the gym and in active exercise. The inferential statistics obtained was also significant in testing the hypothesis that 'the introduction of audio and visual aids in the gym will make the participants stay longer than when there is no use of these aids in the gym sessions'.
Discussion
Rejecting the null hypothesis; the hypothesis in this research is 'the introduction of audio and visual aids in the gym will make the participants stay longer than when there is no use of these aids in the gym sessions'. In formulating the null hypothesis in the inferential statistics on observation data, the null hypothesis is referred to as the general proposition that there is no relationship between the two measured events. The null hypothesis is the position that the research is trying to disapprove. In…

carcinoid is no longer rare as previously deemed, but rather is accidentally missed or not analyzed in the course of removing the appendix, this has a major prevalence than most current proportion of reported diagnoses. Carcinoid tumors are relatively unusual, malignant tumors, typically of the digestive track and/or lung. They grow and develop slowly and as a result have a very minimal probability of disseminating across the body. Remarkably, these
Unit 3 Question What types of research question(s) can best be addressed through the use of case studies? What are the advantages and disadvantages of the case study approach? The case study approach is favored in many research studies in the social sciences, particularly sociology and anthropology. Case studies are useful in examining questions about a particular social group, and also explain phenomena with multiple causes, such as 'juvenile delinquency.' Finding ways to
SE = 2.1820749866 Hypothesis Testing Answer each question completely to recieve full credit There is a new drug that is used to treat leukemia. The following data represents the remission time in weeks for a random sample of 21 patients using the drug. State the Null Hypothesis Let XA represent the mean remission time of the new drug and XB the mean remission time of the previous drug, then the null hypothesis states that
Where the hypotheses were well-followed throughout the text, the conclusion ignores the relevance of these factors to the delay experienced by patients in seeking treatment. Instead of developing a correlation between the identified behavior and the subject matter, importance of creating awareness among the general public was the highly emphasized. Furthermore, the responsibility of nurses and government authorities in this regard, was also discussed. Limitations The study itself had a rather
Nursing Research How Data Collection Influences Statistics Data collection influences statistics in several ways. First, data is collected according to a "category scheme," which is the establishment of meaningful categories in which the data is collected and analyzed (Polit & Beck, 2008, p. 508). If the category scheme is not well developed and meaningful, adequate data may not be effectively collected and examined to inform the nurse researcher about whatever topic he/she
