Title: Basic Statistics Mini Project


1
Basic Statistics Mini Project
Research Title The relationship between the
time spent looking on the screen and emotional
stress among students in a college in Kuala
Lumpur.
2
Introduction
  • Independent variable Time spent looking on the
    screen
  • Dependent variable Emotional stress
  • Population College students
  • Sample 66 college students (n30) large sample
  • 5 descriptive research questions
  • Section A Demographic Question
  • Section B Emotional Stress Test
  • 5 inferential research questions

3
Reason for this Survey?
  • The survey is created, because the college is
    close due to the coronavirus pandemic.
  • Therefore, the education system is conducted
    online for the health safety of the students.

Inferential Research Questions
20
Chi-square
  • Yes, the respondents spent 7.90 hours on average
    to look on the screen in a day with the majority
    of five to six hours are experiencing moderate
    emotional stress, which is 43.9.

Q1. Is there a relationship between the time
spent looking on the screen and emotional stress?
21
Q2. Is there a relationship between the time
spent looking on the screen and studying hours?
  • Yes, the respondents spent 7.90 hours on average
    to look on the screen in a day with the majority
    of five to six hours where 4.21 hours on average
    to study in a day with the majority of six to
    seven hours are involving on looking on the
    screen.

Chi-square
22
Q3. Is there a relationship between emotional
stress and sleeping hours?
  • Yes, the respondents spent 7.36 hours on average
    to sleep in a night with the majority of eight to
    nine hours.
  • As a result, the majority of the respondents are
    experiencing moderate emotional stress, which is
    43.9 and mild emotional stress, which is 42.4.

Chi-square
23
Q4. Is there any relationship between the time
spent looking on the screen and sleeping hours?
  • Yes, the respondents who spent 7.90 hours on
    average to look on the screen in a day with the
    majority of five to six hours would spend 7.36
    hours on average to sleep in a night with the
    majority of eight to nine hours.

Chi-square
24
Q5. Is there a difference in emotional stress
between male and female students?
  • Yes, the male students are feeling mild emotional
    stress whereas the female students are feeling
    moderate emotional stress.

Chi-square
25
Organizing and Summarizing Data
26
  • 2. Age
  • Mode 21 (age 20)
  • Mean 8.25
  • Median 10
  • Standard deviation 7.7
  • 1. Gender
  • Mode 47 (female)
  • Mean 33
  • Median 33
  • Standard deviation 14
  • 3. Emotional Stress Level
  • Mode 29 (Moderate)
  • Mean 13.2
  • Median 4
  • Standard deviation 12.54

27
Analyzing Data
  • Pearsons Correlation
  • ANalysis Of VAriance (ANOVA)
  • Chi-Square
  • After conducting 3 methods, it concludes that
    there is no significant difference between the
    emotional stress levels that are caused by the
    hours of looking at the screen. Everyone is
    equally stressed.

28
Limitations
  • Since the college is closed, no access to IBM
    SPSS Statistics on the computers at the library
    to do the data analysis. Using the free trial
    version is complicated to use.
  • The online version is used as an alternative,
    because it has (1) intelligent algorithm (2)
    remarkable consistency (3) easy processing (4)
    solves problems and (5) data security.
  • Unfortunately, it only analyses 50 samples
    (75.76), leaving 16 samples (24.24) which are
    not analysed. However, most of the collected
    samples are analysed in general.
  • Since this is the first time doing the data
    analysis, the result of the data analysis has
    given a brief idea of how it works for Pearsons
    Correlation, ANOVA and Chi-square when answering
    the inferential research questions.

29
Conclusion
  • It concludes that with the increase of hours
    staring at the screen, it will cause students to
    have a change in their emotion, behavior and
    physical state (some of them will get sick and
    uneasy). This will cause the emotional stress
    level of students to increase.
  • To combat and improve on this issue, lecturers
    can consider
  • Decreasing the online lecture hours
  • Encouraging students to do more self-studies
