  • Competency 4: Engage in practice-informed research and research-informed practice.
    • C4.SP.A: Apply leadership skills, decision making, and the use of technology to inform evidence-based research practice to develop, implement, evaluate, and communicate interventions across the specialization of advanced generalist practice settings. 
      • Related Assignment Criteria:
        • 1: Devise accurate datasets.
        • 3: Describe and report the statistical method or test outcomes using the appropriate statistical method or test.
    • C4.SP.B: Apply leadership skills, decision making, and the use of technology to inform program evaluation to develop, implement, evaluate, and communicate interventions across the specialization of advanced generalist practice settings.

        • 2: Develop appropriate statistical tests and reports that assist in program evaluation.
        • 4: Apply critical thinking in verbal and written communication through the use of leadership and technology.

Assignment Instructions

For this assignment, complete the following in a one-page, APA-formatted paper:

  1. Refer to the JASP Tutorial Video: Bivariate Regression (given in the Resources). Conduct a bivariate regression with the outcome variable (Y) as self-reported anxiety and the predictor variable (X) as length of meditation.
  2. Provide JASP output for the model summary (R-square), the F-test (testing if R-square is significantly different from 0), Coefficients (intercept and unstandardized coefficient), and descriptives (mean and standard deviation for the predictor and outcome).
  3. Using the “H1” output, identify the intercept (that is, when X = 0 . . . in other words, mean anxiety level for 0 minutes of meditation) and the unstandardized beta (that is, change in Y as the predictor increases 1 unit . . . increases by 1 minute of meditation).
  4. Provide a summary paragraph of the results of the regression analysis and implications for funding the meditation program.

Additional Requirements

Your assignment should meet the following requirements:

  • Written communication: Written communication is free of errors that detract from the overall message.
  • APA formatting: Resources and citations are formatted according to current APA style and formatting standards.
  • Length of paper: One double-spaced page.
