Task: Research report as PPT presentation

1. Carefully read the case and understand the

logic of the conceptual model
2. Assign the data to the model – redraw the
model and add codes for data indicators
Example:
Strategy realisation
(SRE; 9 items)
 Task: Research report
3. State the RQ (mainly they are included in the
case)
4. Choose which statistical test will be used to
answer the RQ
5. Analyse the data and answer the questions
6. Prepare report to communicate your results
7. Present the results on the exam day
 Analysing data
1) From Primary Data Table:
• Reliability check – Cronbach's alpha coefficient (if
applicable)
2) Create the average data table
JAMOVI: Data -> Compute
3) From Average Data Table:
• Are data normally distributed – Shapiro-Wilk test
• Descriptive statistics – central tendency and variability
measures (provided as part of Descriptive statistics)
• Inductive statistics:
a) Correlation analysis: (correlation coefficients)
b) Regression analysis
c) Testing for differences between groups: t-test or ANOVA;
 Analytics: which test to use?
Testing for
Differences:
Position T-test – for 2
Tenure
Environment Gender
gropups (e.g.
position;
Age gender)
ANOVA – for
more tahn 2
Growth groups (e.g.
Tenure Age)
LOYALTY
Management
Testing for
associations:
Multigroup Correlation
Remuneration analysis: Regression

 Results must be presented as

• Model and research questions (or hypotheses)
• Test – tables NOT copied, but formatted
• Answers to the research questions
• Conclusions and recomendations

** Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level

There is significant positive and strong correlation between Loyalty and Growth (r-0,61;
sig<0,001);
significant positive and moderate correlation between Loyalty and Pay (r-0,59
sig<0,001)……
 Correlation coefficient -

Size of the Correlation Coefficient General Interpretation

0.8 to 1.0 Very strong relationship

0.6 to 0.8 Strong relationship
0.4 to 0.6 Moderate relationship
0.2 to 0.4 Weak relationship
0.0 to 0.2 Weak or no relationship

Sign indicated the direction of the relationship:

«+» positive correlation
«-» negative relationship

• T-test: sig=0,33>0,05, therefore differences between

Loyalty of males and females is not statistically significant.

• Conclusion: male and female employees are equally loyal

 Conclusions
• Conclusions explain the results of the analysis in
relationship to the variables
– What does the result show?
– What does the relationship means?
– What does the difference show?

• Example: Since loyalty is positively related to growth, it

shows that employs who see growth possibilities in the
organisation are also more loyal. Consequently we could
reamend to ensure growth possibilities in order to keep
employees loyal.
 Exam Report submission

1. Submit on E-RISEBA the research report

(recommended Word format) by June 4nd
