Article

read the article written by Sorokowski et al. (2015),  Then, you will write a paper that includes the  following:

• A description of the purpose of the research, the hypotheses, and the methods used to test the hypotheses.
• A description of the variables that were measured in the research  and the level of measurement for each variable (i.e., nominal, ordinal,  interval, or ratio).
• A description of the sample used in the research. Your description  should include a discussion regarding the diversity (e.g., age, sex,  race, etc.) of the sample.
  • For example, was the sample representative of a particular population or was it simply a convenience sample?
• A discussion to determine if the ethical guidelines were followed in the recruitment and testing of participants.
• A summary of the results and conclusions.
• A description of the measures of central tendency (i.e., mean,  median, or mode) and variability (e.g., standard deviation) reported by  the authors.
  • This should include specific examples of how central tendency and  variability were reported in the article; you should not include general  definitions for these terms.
