Introduction
Describe the main topic question, sub questions, the purpose and the focus of your
statistics project and why you chose it.

What is the relationship between daily screen time and sleep quality among young
adults?

Hypothesis: a hypothesis of the outcome of the research. This is just an educated


guess, so it is acceptable if you end up proving yourself wrong by the end of the report.

Section 1: Applying various mathematical techniques in the analysis and exploration of


data.

Choose your one variable data that has:


- Data values
- Bar graph/Histogram
- Frequency polygon/Relative frequency polygon

Write an Analysis (Conclusion) based on data and graphs. Do your graphs appear to
follow normal distribution?
If not (Skewed) then what does it mean?

Section 2- Analyzing data involving two variables.

Choose another sub-question for analyzing two variable data. (The rest of the
sub-questions can be one or two variables. Create bar graphs or Histograms and
frequency or relative frequency polygon).

Write an Analysis (Conclusion) based on data and graphs. Do your graphs appear to
follow normal distribution? If not (Skewed) then what does it mean?

1. Linear regression (Line of best fit and coefficient of correlation ‘r’ to determine how
well the line fits)
o Correlation coefficient, r, is used to analytically classify a linear correlation
(positive/negative and weak/moderate/strong).
2. Linear Regression and Interpolation/Extrapolation
o Find a linear regression equation.
o At least one interpolation and extrapolation must be made and explained.

3. Measures of Central Tendency


o Mean, median and mode must be calculated for your chosen sub-question in your
Excel file/Sheets.
o At least two measures of central tendency (Mean, Median or Mode) must be used for
a purpose and explained in the report.

4. Measures of Spread
At least four measures of spread (standard deviation, variance, IQR (Interquartile
range), z-score, percentiles) must be calculated and at least two must be used for a
purpose and explained in the report.

5. Variables
o As variables are used/manipulated throughout your report, you must describe them as
discrete, and continuous and identify which variables are independent or dependent.
o Variables should also be labeled on each graph correctly.

6. Cause and Effect


o The relationship/factor (cause and effect, common cause factor, reverse
cause-and-effect relationship, etc.) between the variables must be fully identified and
explained.

7. Bias
o Note at least one bias that could have arisen through your study and identify with
justification (sampling, non-response, measurement, response, etc.).

8. Graphs
o All graphs should be labeled and should be given an appropriate title.

Conclusion
9. Draw conclusions by summarizing your findings and relating them to your main topic
question and sub-topic questions.

State whether your hypothesis was correct or incorrect with justification.

11. Recommendations for Policymakers:


o Increase Access to Higher Education: Provide subsidies or scholarships to
low-income families to make higher education more accessible.
o Promote Lifelong Learning: Offer incentives for continuing education and skill
development programs.
o Address Inequality: Implement policies to support job training and education for
underserved communities to bridge the income gap.

12. Works Cited

Cite all your information using the APA format. A summary of the APA format can be
found at:

Be sure to correctly cite all your data throughout your report to avoid plagiarism.

13. Presentation in class (Submit your Slides)


• Rehearse to fit within the 5–6 minutes.
• Use simple and clear visuals to keep your audience engaged.
• Highlight only the most critical points—don’t overload your slides with text
Your Presentation slides should consist of the following components:
• Introduction -Main topic Question, Sub questions, graphs. (No calculations required)
• Brief explanation of your research
• Conclusion and avenues of further study
