Assignment Preparation
Read the Legal Memorandum Guide
You will be expected to discuss the elements of this assignment accurately. There are several areas in which students have had difficultly in the past that you may want to make sure you are familiar with
Be sure to make any claims based on your findings in a way that is accurate to what the statistical method allows you to know.
Be sure you understand what a class-action lawsuit is.
Be sure you are clear on the difference between the data and your evaluation of it.
Be sure to clearly outline what you know about the data AND why what is provided is important.
Be sure you clearly understand the specific car part you are discussing. If this is not a familiar product take the time to look up some information on it before writing about it so you can speak precisely.
Problem Description
A series of seemingly related recent automobile failures have resulted in a class-action lawsuit (Links to an external site.), Szabo v. Reliable Car Parts Corporation being filed. The ‘class’ in this case is claiming that Reliable Car Parts manufactured a part that does not comply with mandated performance standards in place to assure safe operation of vehicles. The class was established as this part has been used by many manufactures in many models of vehicles for a decade, and therefore, involves hundreds of thousands of vehicles. They are claiming the failure of this part has led to serious engine failures resulting in needed vehicle repair or replacement, for which Reliable Car Parts should be financially responsible.
The part is question is a shaft with a copper-lead bearing surface that is manufactured for use in fuel pumps. The use of copper lead as a bearing surface was considered a revolution in the performance capability of this part when it was introduced. However, after a decade in operation, the ability of this design to meet performance standards established for the safe operation of vehicles is being questioned. The established standards require these parts may not wear more than 3.5 microns over a useful life of 250,000 miles of vehicle operation with the fuel pump using this shaft. This standard has been established, as wear of the shaft bear surface exceeding this amount can result in catastrophic fuel pump failure in extreme weather conditions.
Due to the significance of this litigation, the Judge involved with the case, The Honorable Faeza Hai, has brought you in as an expert witness, independent of either side of the litigation, to provide the jury with the clarity that can be brought to the question by an engineering review. At your request, she is providing you with data from a random sampling of 45 shafts of this design from a recent manufacturing run, which have been put through a test simulating 250,000 miles of wear. The result of this test was and She is requiring that you complete your work with a high level of confidence, therefore you have suggested using a confidence interval of .01. You are to provide the jury with which side of the litigation you would support and why in a written document that makes the determination clear and believable to them. The document you are to provide is to follow the court's template and their Legal memorandum guide. You will also copy the document to Miles Davis, Clerk of the Courts, Michah Bioano, Plaintiffs’ Counsel, and Jay Grabow, Defendant’s Counsel.
Data from Sample Testing
Assignment Grading (be sure to review the assignment rubric)
You will be expected to use the Legal Memorandum Guide and example to include all the required elements in your memorandum. A particular challenge of the assignment is the explanation of the method used for calculations; why it is appropriate, and which option was selected and why.
Before turning in the work you will review the document for flow at the sentence, paragraph, and document level.
You will need to complete a statistical calculation using the correct approach, arrive at the correct answer, and use the findings in a professional way to develop a recommendation.
Clarity, conciseness, and accuracy - While clarity and conciseness are a concern for the entire document, the memorandum subject line (RE), the question presented, and the brief answer will be closely evaluated on the accuracy of your statements, and the clarity and conciseness of your document elements. (Be sure you understand the difference between liability and negligence.)
Addressing your audience - Your document must be worded in a way where your audience will understand, believe, and be persuaded by what you say. Each of the elements must be worded in a way that is complete and coherent to an outside reader who is likely not an engineer or statistician. (Finding someone like that to review your document and tell you where they are not following your writing can help you with editing. An outside reader may review your document for problem areas but MAY NOT do your writing for you.)
Completeness - All the elements shown in the Legal Memorandum guide must be included in the correct sequence and format.
This assignment is being submitted through the similarity review to trigger checks for plagiarism and at the same time will be reviewed for grammatical correctness.
Assignment Submittal.
This is an individual assignment for which each student must upload a document in one of the allowed formats listed on the assignment. Documents submitted in alternative formats that cannot be opened and graded will receive a zero.

Variables Measurement and SPSS Statistical Analysis Summary
Quantitative
research consists of testing and understanding relationships between
variables. Researchers construct these variables as measurable
expressions of social phenomena. Modern statistics provides you with a
host of resources to answer questions, but each statistical test has a
set of assumptions regarding the measurement of the variables. It is
therefore important to understand how variables are measured because
their measurement will influence the type of analytic tools available to
you.SPSS is a statistical software program that
allows you to enter these variables into a spreadsheet format and record
the measurements from a sample. Additionally, SPSS allows you to
perform statistical analysis. Before launching into your analyses,
though, it is important to understand how the variables are measured.
That understanding will help you interpret the SPSS output.In
this week’s Discussion, you considered topics with social change
implications. For this Assignment, you will examine data to analyze
independent and dependent variables, determine how they are measured,
and decipher whether a social change question can be answered and the
implications for such change.Write a 2-page summary and include the following:A description of what the each of the variables measure.A description of the unit of analysis.A description and explanation of the levels of measurement for each variable (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio).Explain
how you might conceive these variables to be used to answer a social
change question. What might be the implications for social change?

Variables Measurement and SPSS Statistical Analysis Summary
Quantitative
research consists of testing and understanding relationships between
variables. Researchers construct these variables as measurable
expressions of social phenomena. Modern statistics provides you with a
host of resources to answer questions, but each statistical test has a
set of assumptions regarding the measurement of the variables. It is
therefore important to understand how variables are measured because
their measurement will influence the type of analytic tools available to
you.SPSS is a statistical software program that
allows you to enter these variables into a spreadsheet format and record
the measurements from a sample. Additionally, SPSS allows you to
perform statistical analysis. Before launching into your analyses,
though, it is important to understand how the variables are measured.
That understanding will help you interpret the SPSS output.In
this week’s Discussion, you considered topics with social change
implications. For this Assignment, you will examine data to analyze
independent and dependent variables, determine how they are measured,
and decipher whether a social change question can be answered and the
implications for such change.Write a 2-page summary and include the following:A description of what the each of the variables measure.A description of the unit of analysis.A description and explanation of the levels of measurement for each variable (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio).Explain
how you might conceive these variables to be used to answer a social
change question. What might be the implications for social change?
