Week 10 Assignment

This assignment is divided into two parts. In Part 1, you will read and interpret a published research article that uses some form of an analysis of variance (ANOVA). In Part 2, you will examine a graduate program or job posting in the social sciences that uses statistics.

Part 1: Interpreting a Published Research Article

For this assignment you will select one of the articles below. Each article uses a form of an ANOVA covered in this week’s assigned textbook reading. You can access these articles through the Capella Library.

Select one of the following articles:

Barrett, E., Kannis-Symand, L., Love, S., Ramos-Cejudo, J., & Lovell, G. P. (2023). Sports specific metacognitions and competitive state anxiety in athletes: A comparison between different sporting types. Applied Cognitive Psychology, 37(1), 200-211. https://doi.org/10.1002/acp.4040

Lang, B., Lemanski, M. R., Heron, R. L., & Williams, K. S. (2025). Improving undergraduate psychology students’ understanding of the graduate school application process. Teaching of Psychology, 52(1), 53-58. https://doi.org/10.1177/00986283221126089

Vincent, M., Suriá, R., Gonzálvez, C., Aparicio-Flores, M. P., Sanmartín, R., & García-Fernández, J. M. (2023). Emotional profiles of anxiety, depression, and stress: Differences in school anxiety. Psychological Reports. https://doi.org/10.1177/00332941231184384

Criteria:

· Identify the descriptive and inferential analyses reported in the article

· Identify the type of analysis of variance conducted in the study

· Identify the variables in the analysis of variance conducted in the study

· Summarize the results of an analysis of variance

· Identify the sample used in the study and the population to which the results of the study can be generalized

Which article did you select?

What descriptive statistics were presented in the article?

What inferential tests were conducted? There may be more than one; list them all.

What type of analysis of variance test was conducted (e.g., one-way between groups ANOVA, repeated measures ANOVA, factorial ANOVA, ANCOVA, MANOVA)?

In the analysis of variance, what were the independent and dependent variables? If there was a repeated measure or covariate, what was it?

Write one paragraph summarizing the main findings of the study using language that someone with little to no knowledge of statistics can understand.

Describe the sample used in this study. Include the sample size and describe the key demographic features of the sample.

To what population can the results of this study be generalized? Explain how you determined this.

Part 2: Examining a Graduate Program or Job Posting

Directions: For this part of the assignment, you will identify a graduate program or job posting in the social sciences that involves statistics. This should be different from the program or career you used in the Week 1 Assignment. If you select a graduate program, complete Option A only. If you select a job posting, complete Option B only.

Criteria:

· Describe a graduate program or career in the social sciences that uses statistics

· Explain why you think you would or would not be interested in pursuing the program or career you selected

Option A: Complete this section if you are selecting a graduate program.
What is the full name of the graduate program you selected?
Provide a direct link to your selected program.
Are there any statistics-related entrance requirements? If so, describe them.
What statistics courses are students in this program required to take?
Is this a graduate program you think you will be interested in applying to in the future? Why or why not?
Option B: Complete this section if you are selecting a job posting.
What is the full job title?
Provide a direct link to your selected job posting.
What are the statistics-related job requirements? (i.e., skills applicants must have)
What are the statistics-related job responsibilities? (i.e., tasks the person in the role will perform)
Is this a position you think you will be interested in applying for in the future? Why or why not?
