type of OBSERVATION
ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS
NULL HYPOTHESIS
SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
opportunity sampling
PROCEDURE
2 STRENGTHS of OPPORTUNITY SAMPLE
(+) opportunity sampling gives us a less biased set of data
(+) it was practical and safe
a WEAKNESS of OPPORTUNITY SAMPLING
RESULTS of the DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS:
OV and CV SCORES:
INFERENTIAL TEST used:
LEVEL of PROBABILITY used and why:
0.05- it’s a good compromise between type 1 and type 2 errors
RETAIN or REJECT the NULL HYPOTHESIS:
retain
as the OV is less than the CV for a two-tailed hypothesis at a 5% level of probability the null hypothesis should be retained as the difference is not significant
