SUGGESTED GUIDELINES FOR PROJECT
1, INDIVIDUALIGROUP
= Students are required to perform a group with 3 - § members. (The number of
members per group depending on the number of students in the class and the
number of class)
2. SOURCE OF DATA
= Students are allowed to use secondary and
encourage to use thelr own data). There is no
size.
= You can easily gain secondary data from

4.2 Objectives of Study
You are required to determine at least two objectives on the statistical
methods. You may use example as attach In this subtopic.
Example:
The objectives of study are Included:
nts (descriptive)
a) To describe the demographic profile of the resp
ge number of siblings
b) To determine whether there are differences on
between gender (1" statistical method).
¢) To gauge the association between the dffation of maftlage (year) and the
level of education (2 statistical method)
2.0 METHODOLOGY
2.1 Description of Data
= This section, exy
for the respecti in your study (highly recommended
ble).
‘objective of the study that you have stated in 1.2.
ctive of the study is “to describe the demographic
espondénts", you may use descriptive statistics including bar
{thor any graphical presentation that appropriate towards on the
jable involve in your study.
1 first objective that involve the application of statistical method,
fo determine whether there are differences on average number of
siblings between gender’ the most appropriate method will be Independent t-
test. On the other hands, if the objective of the study is "to gauge the
association between the duration of marriage (year) and the level of
education’ you may use Chi-Square Test of Independence (inferential
statistics) because involving correlation between categorical variable.
= In conclusion, if you have three objectives of study, you should have three
statistical methods encompass of descriptive ad inferential statistics.

3.0 FINDINGS
= This section expecting the students to perform the analysis on descriptive and
inferential statistics that have been mentioned/choose in section 2.2.

Degree | Degree
The cross-tabulation indicates the information on the duration marriage and level of
‘education. Based on the cross-tabulation, majority of the duration of marriage of the
respondents for various level of education is 6 - 10 years. Those are PhD holder
indicated more than 15 years in marriage.
REMINDER: one chartiplot/table for one variable (at least two types of chart)
