Purpose of Study As a policy researcher, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO)

Purpose of Study
As a policy researcher, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has asked you to explore a new dataset called the General Social Survey.  The CBO would like you to conduct a preliminary statistical analysis to describe the sample characteristics in the dataset and write a report for the CBO. They believe this dataset is representative of the American people and can be used to help leaders make important social and social policy decisions.  
Research Questions and Hypothesis
What are the demographic characteristics in the GSS dataset?
There is no hypothesis for this assignment.
Measures (Variables)
AGE, MARITAL, DEGREE, BORN, RACE1

Directions:
The requirement of this assignment is to: Call in the appropriate dataset, select the columns (i.e. variables), and possibly rows (i.e. observations), of interest, and run frequency distributions for your chosen variables. You should include: 
Your program.
The output that displays three of your variables in frequency tables.

I need an expert in systeics to answer some questions.
You can pick any poll/news article that answers the questions of this paper. There is one rule. The poll/new article you pick MUST BE NEW AND RECENT. IT CAN’T NOT BE OLDER THAN A WEEK. 
  Make sure you pay attention this to rule. I will be checking the article myself as you must give me the link to it.

3. Perform calculations on your chosen data set such as central tendency,
percentages, rate of change, aggregates, minimum, maximum and so on.
Caution: Your calculations need to have meaning, otherwise your
infographic will not make sense. You may then use basic data visualization
techniques such as pie charts, bar charts, histograms, scatterplots etc.,
show trends over the years or make comparisons between different locations
or items. You may also search for additional items to supplement the topic.

Project Component A Directions: The first step of your project is to find a data

Project Component A
Directions:
The first step of your project is to find a data set that interests you. Some students may gravitate towards political sentiment, mental health, or science. It is up to you to decide what data set (among the ones we have provided) will spark the most interesting questions for you. What makes a data set interesting to you may be the general topics that are covered or specific questions/topics that are covered within the data set. Next, try to narrow down particular partsof the data set you find interesting. Your goal is to brainstorm some possible research questions.
One of the simplest research questions that can be asked is whether two constructs are associated.
For example, in GSS participants were asked about their happiness in marriage (rated Very Happy, Somewhat Happy,or Not Too Happy) and also about their self-assessment of their own health (Excellent, Good, Fair, or Poor). One question might be: Is there a relationship between health and relationship happiness?
As another example, in NESARC participants were asked about whether their blood/natural father was depressed (No, Yes, or Unknown), whether their blood/natural mother was depressed (No, Yes, or Unknown) and also a multitude ofquestions about their own mental health (A list of questions that reveal some form of depression). One question could be: Does parental depression predict an individual’s level of depression?
Remember that you can tweak your question as we move forward, but it will benefit you greatly to spend time now deciding a direction for your project.
The requirement of this assignment is to: select a dataset (also include information about why it is interesting to you), discuss potential research questions, and copy and paste the relevant components of the codebook into a document.(This will help you keep organized in the coming weeks, it is likely you will need to update it as your project and research question evolve). If applicable, let us know whether you are having trouble picking a topic or have any other concerns about how to move forward.
Sample Submission:
After looking through the codebook for the ADD study, I have decided that I am particularly interested in studying family background and depression. Examining mental health and trying to understand contributing factors to depression is something that I explored during my summer internship. While the internship focused on activity leveland depression, I was always interested how parental figure’s own depression (either biologically or throughinteractions) may contribute to their child’s own depression in adulthood.
My personal codebook includes all questions in the NESARC study that give me information about mother and father depression and also includes some signs of an individual’s own depression:
