All research requires data analysis that results in reportable findings.
Data analysis procedures for quantitative research should describe the data-collection plan for each variable or group. It should also include a description of the type of data to be collected along with the statistical analyses anticipated. The research analysis needs to align with the research design. A detailed description of the relevant data collected for each stated research question and each variable within each hypothesis (if applicable) is needed.
The what, why, and how should be addressed. Which statistical and non-statistical analysis and procedures will be used to conduct the data analysis? Why will these statistical and nonstatistical data analyses be used? How do these data analysis techniques align with the research question and design? Demonstrate that the quantity and quality of the data are sufficient to answer the research questions. Chapter 8 of the Creswell text provides exemplars of research plans for each of the quantitative designs.
Overview
This assessment is a draft of the Methodology and Procedures section of your Concept Paper Project. You will use scholarly literature and the course text to define and describe the methodology and research design. You will also identify and discuss the instruments needed to conduct this potential study, the data collection methods, and the data analysis process.

Before beginning the assessment:
Ensure that you have identified the quantitative research design that is the most appropriate for your research topic; that is, descriptive, experimental, or quasi-experimental.
Ask why this research design is the best for addressing your research topic. Also, think about how the methodology, and research design inform the instruments needed, the data collection methods, and the data analysis.
Watch the interactive learning activities.
