A DNP-NP is studying the health of a group of staff nurses at a large hospital and has posed five research questions and hypotheses for this study (for simplicity only the null hypotheses are presented here). Looking at Week 4 Dataset (Excel)Links to an external site. answer the following:
For each research question, use the algorithm provided in the Course Content folder of this module and SPSS to:
- Determine which test should be used.
- Perform that test.
- Report on your findings to include the significance (p value) and if this is significant or not.
- Make conclusions based on the null hypotheses provided.
Present each test result in one brief paragraph in one Word document.
Research Questions
- Are BMI and systolic blood pressure correlated?
- Null hypothesis: There is no correlation between BMI and systolic blood pressure.
- Is there an association between BMI group and exercise level?
- Null hypothesis: There is no association between BMI group and exercise level.
- Is there a relationship between education and BMI group? (Even though there is a large sample size, consider that there are only 15 DNP/PhDs in this sample, so to be conservative, in determining which test you will use, treat this as though it is overall a small sample.)
- Null hypothesis: education is not related to BMI group.
- Is there an association between smoking history and diabetes?
- Null hypothesis: There is no association between smoking history and diabetes.
- Are BMI and diabetes correlated?
- Null hypothesis: BMI and diabetes are not correlated.
Note: Each question should contain the SPSS output chart and the formal APA summary response. Examples of how to write the summary can be found in the Week 5 Resources section. You do not need to include a cover page with the assignment.
