Post by: RUNNER84 on Mar 17, 2018 Defining culture as a social group's design for living, think about the college campus culture and the culture in your home. How are they alike? How do they differ? What values are emphasized on campus that may not be emphasized at home?
Likewise, what values are present in the home that may not exist on campus? What will be an ideal response Question 2 Describe two reasons why it is sometimes difficult to get valid data with a survey. What will be an ideal response Question 3 Imagine you are interested in the relationship between age and reading ability for children between 4 and 10 years of age. Briefly summarize how you could test this using a crosssectional design. What will be an ideal response Question 4 Define correlation and give an example. Can one determine cause and effect from correlations? Explain why or why not.

Post by: crage on Mar 17, 2018 Students should compare and contrast campus and home values and then identify campus values not present at home and home values not present on campus. Answers will vary, but students should describe two reasons. For instance, people may try to make themselves look smart or nice, wording of questions may influence results, data may be incomplete if everyone doesn't respond, and people can be inaccurate reporters (e.g., memory difficulties). The students should state that they will find several groups of children ranging in age from 4 to 10. They will then evaluate each child's reading ability or ask parents or teachers to do so. Finally, they will compare the children of various ages and look for differences. A correlation exists between two variables when one changes (increases or decreases) as the other changes. It is impossible to determine cause and effect from correlations because correlations indicate a connection between two variables, but cannot determine a reason for the connection because no other variables are controlled. |
