LEARNING OUTCOMES
BY THE END OF THE SESSION, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO
Understand the way in which the practical reports
will be marked and what you have to do to do well!
Learn to calculate chi-squares by hand (these
hand calculations are a critical skill for the
exam).
Tackle an additional problem sheet which should
help you more fully understand the principles
behind non-parametric tests.
Clarify any additional problems that you may have
regarding this lab report with your friendly
neighbourhood demonstrators.

17YOUR CHOICE
WASON CARD SORT
YOU HAVE THE REST OF THE SESSION TO FOCUS ON WHAT
YOU THINK YOU NEED TO IMPROVE YOUR UNDERSTANDING
LAB REPORT
CHI-SQUARE BY HAND
NONPARAMETRICS
Make sure you are happy with your interpretation
of the SPSS output in relation to the two
experimental hypothesis and make sure you know
what needs to go into your lab report to get the
best marks.
Download problem4 and start to work through the
questions related to lots of different
nonparametric tests. The answers will be made
available in a couple of weeks time.
Try working through the second experimental
hypothesis on the wasonbyhand.doc handout and
compare your hand results with the results you
obtained from SPSS.
