  • “Exploring the Relationship Between Property Size and Listing Price in the Real Estate Market”

    Scenario
    Smart businesses in all industries use data to provide an intuitive analysis of how they can get a competitive advantage. The real estate industry heavily uses linear regression to estimate home prices, as cost of housing is currently the largest expense for most families. Additionally, in order to help new homeowners and home sellers with important decisions, real estate professionals need to go beyond showing property inventory. They need to be well versed in the relationship between price, square footage, build year, location, and so many other factors that can help predict the business environment and provide the best advice to their clients.
    Prompt
    You have been recently hired as a junior analyst by D.M. Pan Real Estate Company. The sales team has tasked you with preparing a report that examines the relationship between the selling price of properties and their size in square feet. You have been provided with a Real Estate Data Spreadsheet spreadsheet that includes properties sold nationwide in recent years. The team has asked you to select a region, complete an initial analysis, and provide the report to the team.
    Note: In the report you prepare for the sales team, the response variable (y) should be the listing price and the predictor variable (x) should be the square feet.
    Specifically you must address the following rubric criteria, using the Module Two Assignment Template:
    Generate a Representative Sample of the Data
    Select a region and generate a simple random sample of 30 from the data.
    Report the mean, median, and standard deviation of the listing price and the square foot variables.
    Analyze Your Sample
    Discuss how the regional sample created is or is not reflective of the national market.
    Compare and contrast your sample with the population using the National Summary Statistics and Graphs Real Estate Data PDF document.
    Explain how you have made sure that the sample is random.
    Explain your methods to get a truly random sample.
    Generate Scatterplot
    Create a scatterplot of the x and y variables noted above. Include a trend line and the regression equation. Label the axes.
    Observe patterns
    Answer the following questions based on the scatterplot:
    Define x and y. Which variable is useful for making predictions?
    Is there an association between x and y? Describe the association you see in the scatter plot.
    What do you see as the shape (linear or nonlinear)?
    If you had a 1,800 square foot house, based on the regression equation in the graph, what price would you choose to list at?
    Do you see any potential outliers in the scatterplot?
    Why do you think the outliers appeared in the scatterplot you generated?
    What do they represent?
    You can use the following tutorial that is specifically about this assignment. Make sure to check the assignment prompt for specific numbers used for national statistics and/or square footage. The video may use different national statistics or solve for different square footage values.

  • Title: Understanding the Importance and Application of Statistics in Psychology and Other Fields

    Four discussion questions/posts. The textbook used is Essentials of Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences by Gravetter, F. J., Wallnau, L. B., Forzano, L. B., & Witnauer, J. E. (2021). Essentials of statistics for the behavioral sciences (10th ed.). Cengage. ISBN-13: 9780357365298. Read Chapters 1 and 2 in Essentials of Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences. Review Chapters 1 and 2 PowerPoint presentations. A substantive post is 150 words minimum, incorporates information from the course materials/readings or personal experience, and adds something new to the conversation that others can learn from. 
    DQ1: Why is it important to learn statistics in the study of psychology? Give three examples to support your answer. Include in your answer how descriptive and inferential statistics are used in psychology?
    You may use your textbook to support your reasoning.
    DQ2: What career are you pursuing/doing? How is statistics important in your field? Make sure to be as specific as possible. (pursuing: Behavioral Health Science/counseling and doing: teacher Assistant)
    DQ3: This is a two-part discussion question. Each part needs to be completed to earn full points. Throughout your academic career you have read and learned about numerous scientific experiments and discoveries; some of these were empirical studies. Select an empirical study related to a science concept you learned about in high school or from Intro to Psychology (e.g. Pavlov’s dogs, Mendel and genetics). The concept should be one you found fascinating. Part 1: Share why you selected the concept. Part 2: Find two empirical studies related to that concept and for each, identify on what scale they measured their variables of interest: nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio. Why did you come to this conclusion? (Make sure you are including an APA citation for each article!)
    DQ4: Creating an actual survey that is effective for gathering the correct data can take a long time. What are some of the key things that need to be considered as you create one?
