WRITE A RESEARCH PROPOSAL
Abstract: Summarize your project/paper in fifty to one hundred words. Explain and define your topic and include the answers to the following questions:
Purpose Statement: This section will consist of two parts.
The first part will be a thesis statement that provides the rationale for the project. The thesis statement should be labeled “Thesis:” Argument and 3 reasons
You will need to analyze your audience. Label this section “Audience Analysis:” List all individuals or groups that you think will be a part of your audience; then, list what you assume each group already knows about your topic and what each group feels or believes about your topic. Next, describe what types of information each group will need to know in order to better judge your argument. Be specific.
Statement of Qualification: Explain your experience and any special qualities or perspectives you bring to the argument. If you do not have direct experience with the topic, describe your interest in choosing this specific area of discussion and what you think your lack of experience can bring to the paper.
Review of Literature: When constructing your thesis, you should have decided on three to four initial points for discussion within your paper. Provide one source for each of these points and summarize them. Include the MLA citation with the accompanying summary (same format as usual).
Use the following format to guide you:

The power of advertising is in its persuasive
influence, and this influence can take several different forms.
Research and explain one example of persuasive advertising within
the last year that is unfair and deceptive and that violates the
law in regard to product liability. Be sure to identify and explain
the law in your answer. See Section 13-2: Advertising as a Contract
Basis for Product Liability in your textbook. Provide support for
your response.
In relation to government enforcement of product
warranty and liability claims, research the Internet or the Strayer
Library for information about the latest activities by the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA), Consumer Product Safety Commission
(CPSC), and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA). Analyze the current state of government regulation for
product safety to determine whether each administrative agency is
generally proactive or reactive. Provide one specific example
within the last year from each agency.

STAT 200 Week 1 Homework Problems
1.1.4 To estimate the percentage of households in Connecticut which use fuel oil as a heating source, a researcher collects information from 1000 Connecticut households about what fuel is their heating source. State the individual, variable, population, sample, parameter, and statistic
1.1.8 The World Health Organization wishes to estimate the mean density of people per square kilometer, they collect data on 56 countries. State the individual, variable, population, sample, parameter, and statistic
1.2.4 You wish to determine the GPA of students at your school. Describe what process you would go through to collect a sample if you use a stratified sample.
1.3.4 To evaluate whether a new fertilizer improves plant growth more than the old fertilizer, the fertilizer developer gives some plants the new fertilizer and others the old fertilizer. Is this an observation or an experiment? Why?
1.3.10 A mathematics instructor wants to see if a computer homework system improves the scores of the students in the class. The instructor teaches two different sections of the same course. One section utilizes the computer homework system and the other section completes homework with paper and pencil. Are the two samples matched pairs or not? Why or why not?
1.3.16 To determine if a new medication reduces headache pain, some patients are given the new medication and others are given a placebo. Neither the researchers nor the patients know who is taking the real medication and who is taking the placebo. Is this a blind experiment, double blind experiment, or neither? Why?
1.4.2 Suppose a car dealership offers a low interest rate and a longer payoff period to customers or a high interest rate and a shorter payoff period to customers, and most customers choose the low interest rate and longer payoff period, does that mean that most customers want a lower interest rate? Explain.
1.4.8 Suppose a telephone poll is conducted by contacting U.S. citizens via landlines about their view of same sex marriage. Suppose over 50% of those called do not support same sex marriage. Does that mean that you can say over 50% of all people in the U.S. do not support same sex marriage? Explain
1.4.14 An employee survey says, “Employees at this institution are very satisfied with working here. Please rate your satisfaction with the institution.” Discuss how this question could create bias.
2.1.4 In Connecticut households use gas, fuel oil, or electricity as a heating source. Table #2.1.7 shows the percentage of households that use one of these as their principle heating sources ("Electricity usage," 2013), ("Fuel oil usage," 2013), ("Gas usage," 2013).

Research is an integral part of all professional fields. Designing a research study can be a complicated task that can be simplified if the appropriate techniques can be identified. This assignment will give you the opportunity to design an experiment, including finding relevant prior research, determining the appropriate sample, data analysis techniques, and discuss the results you hope to see. Working from the topic chosen earlier in the topic selection, you will be designing your own statistical study. In a 1,250-1,500 word report discuss the design of an experiment that would expand on or relate to the research in the previously chosen article. See the attached document for detailed instructions on how to complete the project. A minimum of four additional scholarly resources are required. MAT-274 Final Project Detailed Criteria Background information explaining the importance of the research (why it should be done) and what has been done in the past. This background section can be a large portion of your paper, perhaps around 25% of the entire word count. Here you explain what previous research has been done on your topic and how this inspired your new study/experiment. You are required to reference four scholarly articles in your final paper. Make sure to mention how the study you designed is different from the previous work you read in your primary research articles. You can also include information in this section about why the topic is important to your field of study or relevant to you in general. Sampling and experimental design with rationale. In this section, you should include your sampling technique, how you are achieving appropriate randomization, and why this technique is the most appropriate for your particular experiment. Make sure you address any possible bias in your sampling technique and how you will consider this in your final results. Conclude this section with a discussion of your population for generalization and how the demographics of your sample achieve this goal. Data analysis techniques (specific inferential test that would need to be used and why, include tests that would need to be done to validate the assumptions needed for the chosen inferential test). This section is the heart of your final paper. The final grading of the project will focus most heavily on this content. There are at least three paragraphs worth of material to comment on in this section. It is essential that you clearly articulate which type of inferential test you are using (z, t, pairedt,pooled t,chi-squared, ANOVA+F-test, etc.). In addition to stating the type of test, you must explain why this test is appropriate. Every statistical test has certain conditions that must be satisfied to make the test have reasonable inferential power (see lecture slides on Loud Cloud). You need to verify that these assumptions are satisfied for your experiment/sample and explain what types of information you would collect to show this; mention any calculations, graphs, charts, and plots you would use. It would be very nice to include some information on how you would use Excel to implement these calculations/charts. The hypothesis test needs to be formally stated (null and alternative clearly and correctly given with variable names and inequalities/equalities in the correct spot). Describe whether this is a one-tailed or two-tailed test, your chosen significance level (with justification), and what the p-value would tell you in the context of your problem. If your test requires follow-up analysis (such as ANOVA, paired-t), you need to mention explicitly what type of follow up you will do and how these calculations would be performed. Why do you need the follow up calculations? What does this analysis tell you? Expected results as well as the questions this research will serve to answer This section can consist of a single paragraph and should discuss what exactly you hope to answer by performing your inferential test described in the previous part. State what results you expect to see for your hypothesis test, what do you expect the p-value to be approximately? What does the p-value tell you about your null/alternative? Would reject/fail to reject the null? Explain what your hypothesis test outcome means in language relevant to your chosen topic. Suggestions for future research. Your paper should end with a concluding paragraph that discusses how your experiment might influence future research. Decide on future experiments that might be performed based off your work here and previous research. Outline any sample size/experimental design changes you would recommend to future researchers. How would this future research expand the work already completed?
