SPSS ASSIGNMENT SURVIVAL ANALYSIS ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
There are several statistical tests that can be applied to categorical data and or
percentages/proportions. These types of tests can be applied to prevalence and incidence of
diseases/disorders and are fairly common in public health research. A more advanced procedure
but one that is frequently employed in understanding how effective treatment/interventions are is
survival analysis.
INSTRUCTIONS
Using SPSS the student will perform the following procedures and learn how to interpret and
apply the output generated by the procedures:
 Chi Square Goodness of Fit – for various proportions
 Kruskal-Wallis Test
 Survival Analysis
To successfully complete this assignment, review all the SPSS Watch items in the Learn section.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool

RESEARCH PROJECT: FINAL SUBMISSION ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
In order to evaluate the effectiveness of programs and/or interventions designed to improve
public health – the public health professional must have the ability to conduct research and/or
understand how valid research is conducted. Though public health research need not necessarily
be complicated the research process is essentially the same for any research.
This research assignment is comprised of four individual assignment submissions: Introduction;
Methods; Results; Final Submission.
INSTRUCTIONS
Complete the following steps:
Compose a research project based on the data and analyses of SPSS data file Research Project
Report Data.sav.
Use the Research Project: Introduction Example as a guide with regard to appearance and
overall structure.
The project should address the following research questions:
Question #1: Is there a significant relationship between age and daily prayer time?
Question #2: Do males and females daily prayer times differ significantly?
Apply the tests to the ResearchReportData.sav. Remember to provide justification for your
decision to use either a parametric or non-parametric test.
Test What is tested
Number of
variables
Parametric/Non-
Parametric
t-test Differences 2 Parametric
Mann-Whitney Differences 2 Non-Parametric
Pearson
Correlation Relationships 2 Parametric
Spearman
Correlation Relationships 2 Non-Parametric
For references – all that is required is at least two references supporting the fact that daily prayer
is important. They should be easy to find and integrated into the Introduction.

Remember the following:
Each research question requires a correctly stated null and alternative hypothesis.
Any table, picture, or figure presented in the results must be discussed in the Discussion section.
Tables should be reformatted to AMA specs.
This report need not be long. A simple straightforward narrative is all that is required. Only
provide tables and figures that address the research question and other statistical considerations
(i.e. distribution normality).
Pay particular attention to the proper labeling, captioning, and formatting of tables and figures.
The format of SPSS tabular output will need to be modified once the tables have been transferred
to the Word document.
There is a rubric associated with each portion of the research report (located in the
instructions folder). Refer to that to determine point allocation and specific required
components for the assignment.
The Research Project paper must include:
Cover Page:
Title, author, contact information, and affiliations. Submit as part of the Introduction
assignment.
The title should include the variables being studied. This could be accomplished in as few as 9
words-though more or fewer might work.
Introduction:
Introduce the research problem and provide background information on the research problem.
The introduction does not need to be lengthy. Include at least two relevant references.
Be sure to include the cover page.
Methods:
Describe the methods used for analysis and why they were used.
Use convenience sampling as the sampling method.
Remember to use past tense-the report is written as if the study has already been conducted.
Be sure to include any tests for normality and other assumptions if indicated.
Also include the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested.
HLTH 511
Page 3 of 3
The methods section should be written in such a way that a reasonably knowledgeable
reader could replicate the study by following the methods as written.
Results:
In this section, present your results.
Keep in mind that any table or figure presented in the results must be discussed in the discussion
section.
Therefore, it is best to only present information directly relating to describing the sample and
addressing the research question and hypotheses, data normality, outliers, etc.
Each table and figure must be correctly labeled and captioned, and there must also be a brief
sentence or two describing what is contained in the figure or table. However, do not provide
interpretation in the results section, as that is done in the discussion section.
In addition to the Word document containing formatted labeled and captioned results the
unedited SPSS output from which your results were derived with a current SPSS date/time
stamp must also be submitted.
Discussion/Abstract and Final Submission:
Include all previously completed assignment into one document.
In this section, discuss and interpret results presented in the results section, implications, study
limitations, and recommendations for practice and research.
Be sure to include the abstract.
The abstract must briefly describe the research, summarize the results, and state the relevant
findings.
The Discussion section should not exceed 2,500 words (not including the cover page, abstract,
tables, or references). There is no minimum word requirement. However, there needs to be
enough information for the project to be complete, cogent, and understandable.
Each assignment pertaining to the research project is graded separately and feedback provided
when needed.
The final submission rubric is more heavily weighted toward the discussion and abstract, as they
are not previously included in any of the assignments.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool

SPSS PAIRED T-TESTS ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
One type of research question involves repeating measures on subjects before and after some sort
of intervention/treatment. Whether or not a parametric or nonparametric statistical test is
employed will depend on the results of data distribution analysis.
In some cases, public health research requires the analysis of counts and/or categorical data.
Research questions of this type generally employ some form of chi-square analysis.
INSTRUCTIONS
Using SPSS the student will perform the following procedures and learn how to interpret and
apply the output generated by the procedures:
 Paired t-test
 Wilcoxon test
 Chi Square and Risk Analysis
To successfully complete this assignment, review all the SPSS Watch items in the Learn section.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the SafeAssign plagiarism tool.
