In this week’s Discussion, you determined the benefits of visually displaying your data. You also learned that different types of data require different visual displays to adequately “tell the story” of the phenomena. Although the Discussion was difficult, what is even more difficult and challenging will be deciding on how best to display the data for presentation purposes. As you move further along in your dissertation or doctoral study, you will find that displaying data will be critical component in presenting a robust and clear capstone project.
For this Introduction to Quantitative Analysis Assignment, you will explore how to visually display data for optimal use.
To prepare for this Assignment: Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider visual displays of data. For additional support, review the Skill Builder: Unit of Analysis and the Skill Builder: Levels of Measurement, which you can find by navigating back to your Blackboard Course Home Page. From there, locate the Skill Builder link in the left navigation pane. Using the SPSS software, open the Afrobarometer dataset or the High School Longitudinal Study dataset (whichever you choose) found in this week’s Learning Resources. From the dataset you chose, choose one categorical and one continuous variable and perform the appropriate visual display for each variable. Once you visually display each variable, review Chapter 11 of the Wagner text to understand how to copy and paste your output into your Word document.
For this Assignment:
Write a 2- to 3-paragraph analysis of your results and include a copy and paste of the appropriate visual display of the data into your document.
Based on the results of your data, provide a brief explanation of what the implications for social change might be.
Use appropriate APA format. Refer to the APA manual for appropriate citation.

China,
Great post! Glad to see you point out the “accuracy” aspect of this source of power. A social work practitioner who uses information as their power source must do due diligence in fact-checking. This also requires that they stay abreast and informed on a continual basis. What are your thoughts on the steps a practitioner should take if they come to find that their information was incorrect after they’ve disseminated it?
This is a token economy to be done on a client who is having behavioral issues like screaming, kicking, or even getting out of his/her seat during class. All things in the description and grading rubrics have to be addressed.

What does evidence-based research say about the development of sexual orientation in young and middle adulthood?

By Day 7
