Your essay should include:
1,100 Words As in your proposals, your final should explicitly state your research question and provide
a broader context and motivation for it. In addition, you should explain your data sources and any
transformations of the data you made. Finally, you should describe and interpret your tables and plots
as they relate to your research question.
At least 1 Table Any table based on your data will do, but you must have at least 1 table with rows and
columns. The most obvious table to create would be one summarizing your data. Each variable gets
a column and the rows of the table describe the mean, median, max, min, standard deviation, and
number of observations (n) for that variable.
At least 2 Plots More would be great but two is a bare minimum. The only requirement in terms of the
types of charts is that they are appropriate to your research question and data. They should be clearly
and completely labeled. Scatter plots should have regression/trend lines. Bar plots based on data with
known margins of error should have error bars. Make it complete.
Five References This assignment is primarily about the data collection/analysis part of research but you
should have some references. A complete research paper might have dozens of references, but for this
exercise, five is sufficient. These can include books and scholarly articles published in peer reviewed
journals, but you are also welcome to use newspaper or magazine articles to help provide background
context for your research. I will post a separate reference format guide, but I’m more concerned that
all reference information is provided in a consistent fashion rather than you following any specific
convention.
