An educational scientist wants to examine the correlation between years of education and job satisfaction. To address ts question, the scientist recruits a group of participants and has each complete a selfadministered survey; the first question asks how many years of education the participant has (e.g., 12 = gh school diploma, 14 = associate’s degree, 16 = bachelor’s degree, 18 = master’s degree). The remaining questions consist of the Acme Job Satisfaction Index (AJSI), wch produces a score between 0 and 60 (0 = Very unsatisfied with job . . . 60 = Very satisfied with job). Data set: Ch 11 – Exercise 05A.sav Variable: YearsEd Definition: Number of years of education Type: Continuous Variable: AJSI Definition: Acme Job Satisfaction Index Type: Continuous (0 = Very unsatisfied with job . . . 60 = Very satisfied with job) a. Write the hypotheses. b. Run the criteria of the pretest checklist (normality [for both variables], linearity, homoscedasticity) and discuss your findings. c. Run the bivariate correlation, scatterplot with regression line, and descriptive statistics for both variables and document your findings (r and Sig. [p value], ns, means, standard deviations) and hypothesis resolution. d. Write an abstract under 200 words detailing a summary of the study, the bivariate correlation, hypothesis resolution, and implications of your findings.
