Variables in the working file
For each research question , describe in your WORD document the application of the seven steps of the hypothesis testing model.
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 (state which data set you used).
Step 4: Calculate your statistic and p value (this is where you run SPSS and examine your output files). Copy your output tables onto your WORD document under Step 4.
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.

3. Use Overall Satisfaction in January as the dependent variable.
4. Report the descriptive statistics, assumptions tests, effect sizes (partial eta) as well as tests of statistical significance.
Question 3: Is there an improvement in satisfaction from January to June? And, are first time admissions more satisfied than repeat admissions?
1. Run a One-Way Between Groups ANCOVA.
2. Use Newpatient as the independent variable.
3. Use Overall Satisfaction in January as the co-variate.
