For this discussion, come up with 20 different data points (set of data) and enter them into the first column in an Excel spreadsheet. The data points can be any numbers you want as long as there are 20 of them. Your set of data should reflect one of the following criteria: Create a set of data for which the mean is greater than the median.

Review Chapter 3 of your course text, which introduces probability and the standard normal distribution. When comparing data from different distributions, what is the benefit of transforming data from these distributions to conform to the standard distribution? What role do z-scores play in this transformation of data from multiple distributions to the standard normal distribution?

  9. PSY 325 Course Future Starts / psy325.com PSY 325 Week 3 Assignment Final Paper Outline (Ash) For more course tutorials visit www.psy325.com Final Paper Outline.

What would your choice of test depend on? For the test you select, explain your design and your comparison groups. Would the hypothesis be directional or non-directional?
