This assignment will provide the structure for you to identify and define the measures for your research design. For each variable devote a one to paragraph response providing the information requested in the outline below. Please use APA format and appropriate narrative format (this means no bullets).

Requirements and Guidelines
Review the Course Outcomes for this assignment, which are listed above.
Using the topic, you have selected for use this term, describe each of the variables that you propose for your research study. Identify each as an independent (explanatory or predictive) variable and dependent (response) variable.
Variable 1 (Independent or Explanatory Variable)
Identify the concept found in your research question and provide a nominal (conceptual definition)
Provide the operational definition for the variable. In most cases, the measure will require the use of a previously developed scale. In these cases, use the following guideline in describing your instrument:
What does it measure?
How well does it measure the concept?
Indications of validity and reliability.
How is it structured?
Number of items
Subscales
Response structure
What is the dimension; how many dimensions does the scale measure?
How much time & resources does it take to administer and analyze?
From whom does the scale obtain information.
In one word, identify the level of measurement for this variable.
For all remaining variables identified in your question, (Independent (Explanatory) or Dependent (Response)), follow the same outline.
Some terms that might be most helpful for you to focus on include reliability, validity, level of measurement, and randomness. It’s also helpful for students to do their own outside research in terms of understanding concepts. I have had students tell me that it was helpful for them to look up these terms in different formats than what’s provided in the module.
