Describe your analytic strategy (t-Test) and explain why it is an appropriate method to test your hypothesis.

For this week’s creative challenge, I would like you to write a Methods section of a thesis/journal article. The methods section should contain a proposed study about a criminal justice topic where it would be appropriate to use either a independent samples or a paired samples t-test as the analytic strategy. Methods sections have a certain rhythm to them, described in more detail below. The submissions should have an APA style title page, be double spaced in Times New Roman, size 12 font, with one inch margins; presented in Word. Submissions should not exceed about three pages (not counting cover page). Methods sections:Describe your sample, including:Describe your basic intent of the studyDescribe the target population State your hypothesesDescribe your sampling approach (this will differ between the two types of t-test)Describe your dependent variable–what is it and how are you measuring it?Describe the formation of groups in your analysis. Will you be comparing one group at two time points (a paired samples t-test) or will you be comparing two different groups on the same variable (an independent samples t-test)?Describe your analytic strategy (t-Test) and explain why it is an appropriate method to test your hypothesis.
