Assignment #5

PRODUCTIVITY

The Quantitative Analysis Report: Multiple Regression Analysis Assignment uses the Productivity. sav dataset. Address the following research question using a multiple regression (MR) model. Provide all assumptions for the MR test:

RQ 8: Is there a significant predictive relationship of employee productivity (productivity) from levels of Teamwork (teamwork), Technical Knowledge (jobknowl), Adequate Authority to do job well (jobauthr), Fair Treatment (wkrtrtmt), and Sick Days (wrkdyssk)?

· H08: There is no statistically significant predictive relationship of employee productivity (productivity) from levels of Teamwork (teamwork), Technical Knowledge (jobknowl), Adequate Authority to do job well (jobauthr), Fair Treatment (wkrtrtmt), and Sick Days (wrkdyssk).

· Ha8: There is a statistically significant predictive relationship of employee productivity (productivity) from levels of Teamwork (teamwork), Technical Knowledge (jobknowl), Adequate Authority to do job well (jobauthr), Fair Treatment (wkrtrtmt), and Sick Days (wrkdyssk).

There are several assumptions for a multiple regression that must be met:

1. First, the dependent variable must be normally distributed. If not, it must be converted to z scores (see page 32-33 in Cronk).

2. To test for normal distribution, run the Shapiro-Wilk test (See Testing Normality of Dataset.pdf).

3. When you run the Multiple Regression, ensure you select options for multicollinearity and residual plots (see Cronk).
