FINAL PROJECT ASSIGNMENT This final assignment will give you practice doing basic social science research with quantitative
data. It will give you practice developing a hypothesis that you can test by doing a secondary
data analysis of variables contained in the General Social Survey. You will use information from
the GSS website to collect data on three variables (an independent variable, dependent variable
and a control variable) This assignment is broken into three components that will need to be
completed and turned in at different times throughout the semester The Following Assignment
Description and Requirements Are for an Individual Assignment. If you decide to work in pairs,
you would need to double the number of hypotheses, research articles in the literature review and
the analysis. Group projects will also require a grading sheet where each partner evaluates
the contribution of the other partner. The GSS Data Website Can Be Accessed Here
(http :f/sda .berkeley. edu/sdaweb/analys is/?dataset=gss l 4) PART 1: SELECTION OF TOPIC & HYPOTHESIS CONSTRUCTION (1 Page) - DUE
March 27‘” in Lecture Begin by using your browser and going to the GSS website (click on link above). This website
has data for the cumulative GSS (1972-2014). The list of variables in on the left. Explore the
variables. For example, to get to ‘sex’, ‘age’ or ‘race’, yOu need to expand the variable labeled
“Respondent’s Background Variables” and then “Age, Gender, Race, and Ethnicity”. When you
click on a variable, it will show up in the “Selected” row at the top left of your screen. Click on
“View” to see the codebaak information for the variable and the frequencies for the entire
dataset (GSS 1972-2014). You can also use the Search link on top of the webpage to explore
other variables. Go through this and select two variables that you may believe might be causally
related, or at the very least, correlated. Remember, one of these variables needs to be a dependent
variable while the other should be an independent variable. You should also begin thinking about
a third variable that could be related to the relationship you are interested in hypothesizing about.
New construct a theory and develop a hypothesis that describes how these two variables are
related. Make your hypothesis as specific as possible. Include a short statement about how you
came up with your theory and hypothesis. Why do you have the expectation you do? (Group projects will need to formulate 2 hypothesis while individual projects can have 1
hypothesis). For group projects, you can use the same dependent variable but will need two
different independent variables (one for each hypothesis).
