Description
To prepare for this Part 1 of your Assignment:
- Review this week’s Learning Resources and media program related to multiple regression.
- Using the SPSS software, open the Afrobarometer dataset or the High School Longitudinal Study dataset (whichever you choose) found in the Learning Resources for this week.
- Based on the dataset you chose, construct a research question that can be answered with a multiple regression analysis.
- Once you perform your multiple regression analysis, review Chapter 11 of the Wagner text to understand how to copy and paste your output into your Word document.
For this Part 1 Assignment:
Write a 1- to 2-page analysis of your multiple regression results for each research question. In your analysis, display the data for the output. Based on your results, provide an explanation of what the implications of social change might be.
Use proper APA format, citations, and referencing for your analysis, research question, and display of output.
Part 2
To prepare for this Part 2 of your Assignment:
- Review Warner’s Chapter 12 and Chapter 2 of the Wagner course text and the media program found in this week’s Learning Resources and consider the use of dummy variables.
- Using the SPSS software, open the Afrobarometer dataset or the High School Longitudinal Study dataset (whichever you choose) found in this week’s Learning Resources.
- Consider the following:
- Create a research question with metric variables and one variable that requires dummy coding. Estimate the model and report results. Note: You are expected to perform regression diagnostics and report that as well.
- Once you perform your analysis, review Chapter 11 of the Wagner text to understand how to copy and paste your output into your Word document.
For this Part 2 Assignment:
Write a 2- to 3-page analysis of your multiple regression using dummy variables results for each research question. In your analysis, display the data for the output. Based on your results, provide an explanation of what the implications of social change might be.
Use proper APA format, citations, and referencing for your analysis, research question, and display of outpu

Part 1: Testing for Multiple Regression
Data from the high school longitudinal study will be used for this part of the question.
Multiple regression seeks to determine the extent to which more than one independent variables
influence a dependent variable (Kerlinger & Pedhazur, 1973). This is opposed to linear regression
that gets the relationship between one independent variable and one dependent variable. The
independent variable selected is teachers in this school believe all students can do well. The
independent variables are the number of AP science courses offered and the number of AP math
courses offered.
Research Question: What are the factors that influence teachers’ belief that all students can do
well in high schools?
The general form of the regression equation is y = b 0 + bx1 + bx2
The values are as follows:
y = Teachers in this school believe that all students can do well.
b0 = Variation in y not influenced by the variables in the model
bx1 = Number of AP science courses offered
bx2 = Number of AP math courses offered
