Questions to address in the quantitative analysis paper Your analysis paper should address all the following questions: a. What is (are) the research problem(s) addressed in the study? b. What is (are) the importance of the research problem (s)? c. What is (are) the purpose statement(s)? d. What is (are) the research question(s)? e. Choose one of the research questions and identify the independent variable and the dependent variable (including control variables, moderating variables, and intervening variables, if applicable) in the research question. f. How well does the literature review lead to the research questions? g. Describe the sampling procedure in the study. Is (are) the author(s) of the article aware of any problems in this procedure? How are the problems addressed? h. Describe reliability and validity evidences of the instruments. i. Are there any considerations that arose in the data collection and processing (e.g., missing data, suspected cheating, standard administration of instruments was not followed)? j. Describe the analysis procedures, including what statistical analyses were conducted (e.g., regression analyses, analyses of covariance, independent-samples t tests). Does (do) the author(s) provide justification of the appropriateness of the statistical tests? k. What is (are) the major finding(s)? l. What conclusion(s) is (are) drawn? Are the conclusions supported by the data? Does (do) the author(s) answer all the research questions? m. If you were the researcher, how would you improve the study? Be specific. Example (a) — If I were the researcher in this study, I would describe the reason to include three different samples in the study. One possible reason is that the literature has suggested different results from these three samples. Example (b) — If I were the researcher in this study, I would collect additional qualitative data. Information obtained by the qualitative data enhances our understanding of the mechanisms behind the positive relationships between the number of high school counselors and the 4-year college-going rates. Example (c) — If I were the researcher in this study, I would use a different instrument to measure the outcome. The reliability of the instrument is too low. Researchers may not be able to replicate the study by using the same instrument.
