Prepare Exploratory Data Analysis With Multivariate And Univariate Tests
Question
Part A. SPSS Assignment
In this exercise, you are playing the role of a researcher that is testing new medication designed to improve cholesterol levels. When examining cholesterol in clinical settings, we look at two numbers: low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). You may have heard these called “good” (HDL) and “bad” (LDL) cholesterol. For LDL, lower numbers are better (below 100 is considered optimal). For HDL, 60 or higher is optimal.
In this experiment, you will be testing three different versions of the new medication. In the file “Data.xlsx” you will find the following variables: group (0=control, 1=Drug A, 2=Drug B, 3=Drug C), LDL, and HDL (cholesterol numbers of participants after 12 weeks).
Using a MANOVA, try to ascertain which version of the drug (A, B or C) shows the most promise. Perform the following analyses and paste the SPSS output into your Word document.
- Exploratory Data Analysis.
- Perform exploratory data analysis on the relevant variables in the dataset. When possible, include appropriate graphs to help illustrate the dataset.
- Compose a one to two paragraph write up of the data.
- Create an APA style table that presents descriptive statistics for the sample.
- Perform a MANOVA. Using the “Data.xlsx” data set, perform a MANOVA. “Group” is your fixed factor and LDL and HDL are your dependent variables. Be sure to include simple contrasts to distinguish between the drugs (group variable). In the same analysis, include descriptive statistics and parameter estimates. Finally, be certain to inform SPSS that you want a post-hoc test to help you determine which drug works best.
- Is there any statistically significant difference in how the drugs perform? If so, explain the effect. Use the post hoc tests as needed.
- Write up the results using APA style and interpret them.
Part B. Reflection
Reflect on your experience throughout and how you will use your new statistical skill set in the dissertation phase of your degree program. Include a brief assessment of what you have learned. In 2-3 paragraphs, cover the following:
- What were the three most important concepts you learned?
- How will the material in this course help you in your dissertation work?
- What would you like to have seen covered that wasn’t or what would you have liked more practice with?
Summary
The question belongs to Statistics and it discusses about preparing multivariate and univariate tests for measuring cholesterol among two groups.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
I must say that the random variable assignment experts here in HwA can surely make the numbers talk. I was given a sheet of data to analyze and honestly I had no clue whatsoever on how to approach. When I came to them they explained me the concept of discrete random variables (as the data was of an outcome of random test on some microorganism) and helped me analyze the same. My teacher at college was very impressed and since then I take help from HwA.
Jessie Maddox Student
My wee practical knowledge was really an obstacle to my assessment in cardiovascular collapse assignment. Then I came across HwA’s cardiovascular system assignment help. The experts here are just marvellous and they have first-hand experience in dealing with patients. That helped a lot, indeed.!
Rachel McCann Student
It is important to have a constant guide while you do your dissertation as the lack of constant help often leaves you all the more bewildered. The New Zealand dissertation expert who helped me with my assignment was available on a constant basis and she helped me get a fantastic grade.
Jonathan White Student
Religion as a subject is quite sensitive and I needed my world religion assignments to be worded and structured in such a manner so that the analysis was objective and did not appear to be biased or insensitive. The assignment writers at TheReliableTutor.com understood my requirement and with their expertise in writing managed to provide the assignments exactly the way I wanted
Ian Black Student
When I saw that the dissertation writers are from Canada itself it was such a big relief. They are aware of the structural requirements and also at the same time got the citations and the referencing exactly as demanded.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
