Part of your task as a scholar-practitioner is to act as a critical consumer of research and ask informed questions of published material. Sometimes, claims are made that do not match the results of the analysis. Unfortunately, this is why statistics is sometimes unfairly associated with telling lies. These misalignments might not be solely attributable to statistical nonsense, but also “user error.” One of the greatest areas of user error is within the practice of hypothesis testing and interpreting statistical significance. As you continue to consume research, be sure and read everything with a critical eye and call out statements that do not match the results.For this Assignment, you will examine statistical significance and meaningfulness based on sample statements.To prepare for this Assignment:Review the Week 5 Scenarios found in this week’s Learning Resources and select two of the four scenarios for this Assignment.For additional support, review the Skill Builder: Evaluating P Values and the Skill Builder: Statistical Power, which you can find by navigating back to your Blackboard Course Home Page.

Psychology  Assignment: Focus Groups 2 page paper

/in /by

Assignment: Focus GroupsNow that you have heard the Walden Sports CEO’s perspective on employee attitudes, the next step might be to organize a focus group to hear directly from the employees. Focus groups are gatherings of people who are asked carefully planned questions about their perceptions, emotions, opinions, beliefs, and attitudes. A best practice is to use open-ended questions that are intended to generate multiple responses. Focus groups (and interviews) are designed to assess what people think or feel about what is going on in the organization. They can include questions that assess how satisfied they are with their jobs and what factors or antecedents exist that influence their job satisfaction. Answers to these questions can be used to select additional survey questions for an organization-wide survey. See what clues you can uncover at Walden Sports.To prepare for this Assignment:Consider questions you might ask the Walden Sports employees in a focus group to investigate why morale is low.By Day 7Submit a 2 page paper (not including references) that addresses the following:Develop five open-ended questions you might ask the Walden Sports employees in a focus group to investigate why morale is low.Explain why you developed these questions and how the answers will help provide the client the information they need to develop a plan for change. Be specific.Support your Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.
