QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS: DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS, ORDINAL SCALE AND
\nDICHOTOMOUS VARIABLE ASSIGNMENT<\/p>\n

\nSPSS Problems Chapter 4<\/p>\n

Using the CollegeStudentData.sav file (see Appendix A), do the following problems. Print your
\noutputs and circle the key parts of the output that you discuss.
\n4.1.For the variables with five or more ordered levels, compute the skewness. Describe the
\nresults. Which variables in the dataset are approximately normally distributed\/scale? Which
\nones are ordered but not normal?
\n4.2.Do a stem-and-leaf plot for the same-sex parent\u2019s height split by sex at birth. Discuss the
\nplots.
\n4.3.Which variables are nominal? Run Frequencies for the nominal variables and other
\nvariables with fewer than five levels. Comment on the results.
\n4.4.Do boxplots for student height and for hours of study. Compare the two plots. Make Sure
\nto:
\n1. Attach your word document for review and grading. Other file formats are not

\n5. Use level two headings with short titles for multi part questions (Example \u2010 A1.1.a,
\nShort Title, A1.1.b, Short Title II, etc.)
\n6. Use appropriate level headings for key elements of your discussion such as Research
\nQuestions, Hypotheses, Descriptive Statistics, Assumptions & Conditions,

\nand logical.
\n7. Ensure that all tables and graphs are legible and include a figure number.
\n8. Carefully review your document prior to submission for formatting, flow, and
