1. Single Average:

I want to know for my first research idea, what is the average number of study hours per week that college students study? In this study, I will examine one group, all college students. I will collect data by creating a short survey with one simple question: "How many hours do you normally study per week?"  I will administer this survey either in person on campus or email and administer the survey to attempt to gather a random sample of 20 to 30 students. The numerical variable that I will measure will be the number of hours each student studies each week. My statistical hypothesis for this study, will test if the true average is equal to 10 study hours. The null hypothesis (H₀) will state that the average study hours per week, is 10. The alternative hypothesis (H₁) will state that average study hours per week, is not 10

2. Two Independent Averages Data Collection Idea:

For my second research idea, I would like to investigate if students with part-time jobs study for fewer hours per week than students without part-time jobs. Studies would consist of two independent groups: one group made up of college students who have a part-time job currently, and one group made up of college students who do not work any part-time job. I plan to use a survey to collect data from students by asking them two important questions: do you have a part-time job currently, and how many hours do you study each week. My goal is to collect data from no less than 20 students in each group. The numerical variable will again be the number of study hours weekly. The statistical hypothesis for this comparison is concerned with whether job status impacts studying time. Null hypothesis states no difference exists between the two groups and the average study hours are the same. The alternative hypothesis is students that have part-time jobs study for fewer hours per week than students who do not have jobs.

3. Paired Comparisons / Matched Pairs Data Collection Idea:

For my third research idea, I will determine whether or not using a planner or to-do list can increase the number of hours of study on any single day. Note that this is a paired comparison study that will collect data from the same group of students across two conditions. On the first day, students will study the way they normally do without using any type of planner or to-do list. On the second day, students will use a planner or write a to-do list before studying and measure the number of hours that they study that day. This design will allow me to compare each students' study time across two different conditions. The numeric variable in this study is the number of hours studied per day. The null hypothesis is that the use of a planner or to-do list will not have an affect on the number of hours students study, the average difference is zero. The alternative hypothesis is that a planner or to-do list will increase study hours.

3. Paired Comparisons/Matched Pairs Data Collection Idea:

For this one I can try evaluate the effectiveness of two different productivity techniques for my coworkers. I can ask them to use Technique ‘A’ for a week and Technique ‘B’ for another week. They will track their daily productivity or task completion rates using a journal or google forms. Then I will calculate the difference in productivity between the two techniques for each individual and then find the average difference across participants.

Single Average:

For my single average I will track my heart rate during the peak of my workout session. I will collect this data by looking at the health app on my phone which records my heart beat via bluetooth from my watch. (Crazy how technology works!) I would then determine my average heart rate by adding up my BPM from each day and dividing it by the number of days I collected data from.

Two Independent Averages:

For my two independent averages I will be comparing the hours spent on instagram vs twitter. Currently, these are my two favorite apps that I bounce back and forth from so to collect this data I would review the “account activity analytics.” I would then add both of the averages from each app and divide them by the number of days.

Paired Comparisons:

For my paired comparison idea, I’d look at my BPM at the time I put on my watch, which is around 7am (only 30 minutes after I wake up) to the time I’m going to bed, which is around 12:30am. I’d look collect a week’s worth of data for this and then calculate the average by adding up the heart rate readings and divide by the number of days (7 days).

Different Ideas

Single Average data collection: To check my beats per minute (BPM) heart rate, before and after driving to work. I have a BPM monitor on my watch, and I will utilize the data it provides me. I will keep track of it in a notebook. On average I drive 2 times a day.

Two independent averages data collection: To compare the costs of video game consoles of the 1990s and 2020s. I will use an inflation calculator to put 1990s dollars into today’s dollars.

Paired comparisons/matched pairs data collection: To compare the difference to heart beats (BPM) per minute in relation to coffee. 2 participants will measure their BPM before drinking a cup of coffee, and then measure their BPM 30 minutes after drinking their cup of coffee (30 minutes is on average how long it takes caffeine to impact the brain and body).

Collecting: How many people own a cat?

Description: I work at a clinic and i have asked all patients do they own a cat ?
How many of these patients were female patients or Male patients. Do they own more than 1?

After asking about 40 people. The majority were female patients who owned cats than males. The average was each person owned 2 cats. So they aren’t alone. After asking these patients about cats.

I collected. That 80% of females own cats than males. Which I’m not surprised. I love cats. I’ve owned a cats in my life time including fostering . I own 2 of my own. My parents have 4. Cats are beautiful and very smart animals being able to defend and care for themselves along with not needing someone to care for them which is really cool.

Topic: Customer Satisfaction
Data Collection Idea: Average ratings by service delivery method

Description: Evaluate customer satisfaction levels based on different service delivery methods (e.g., in-person, phone support, online chat). Collect customer feedback or ratings after interacting with the company through various channels. Calculate the average ratings for each delivery method to determine which method provides the highest customer satisfaction.

Paired comparisons/matched pairs data collection idea:
Topic: Product Testing
Data Collection Idea: Before and after comparison of a skincare product

Description: Conduct a study to assess the effectiveness of a skincare product. Have participants use the product for a specified period (e.g., one month) and collect data on a specific skincare concern (e.g., acne severity) before and after product usage. By comparing the before and after measurements within each participant, you can determine the impact of the skincare product on the targeted concern.

Single average: Find the average number of hours spent studying Stat 300 Mon to Fri. I will collect data by writing it down at the end of each day. Numerical variable is hours. I want to know if my average is greater this week compared to last.

Two independent averages: Find the average number of hours I spend on Instagram this week and compare to average number of hours spent on Youtube.  My independent groups would be Instagram and Youtube. I will go to digital wellbeing in my phone settings to collect this data for each day of the week. Numerical variable is hours. I want to see if I spend more time on Instagram compared to Youtube.

Paired comparisons: Find out if my average resting heart rate is lower in the morning compared to the evening. I would take my RHR 5 times in the morning and than 5 times in the late afternoon/evening. Numerical variable is heart rate beats per minute. I want to see if my resting heart rate in the morning is less than my resting heart rate in the evening.

I am going to do a single average data collection based on the chart below.

Independent

Variables: Drawings, how many do I do in a day

Numerical Values: Average draws a day

Independent groups: Hours in the day

Dependent groups: how detailed the drawing is, how long each piece takes.

I will collect date to find my average drawings daily. I will collect date from the past two weeks and collect date from this week meaning 21 days in today. I will be focusing on if my average for drawing is at least 2 drawings a day.

I will create a survey to analyze social media usage patterns. Explore questions related to platform preferences, time spent on social media, content consumption habits, and the impact of social media on well-being.

In this case, the numerical variable could be the average time spent on social media per day. Participants can be asked to estimate the number of hours or minutes they spend on different social media platforms each day or week.

A statistical hypothesis for this project could be: "There is a significant difference in social media usage time among different age groups." This hypothesis suggests that social media usage varies significantly across different age demographics.

For a single average data collection idea, I can recording the number of hours I spend studying each day over the course of a week. I can determine my average weekly study hours by adding up the study hours from each day and dividing by the number of days.

For a two independent averages idea, I can compare the average daily # of steps between two different pairs of athletic shoes (Shoe A and Shoe B). I can wear Shoe A for a certain number of days and track the number of steps with an app on my phone, and do the same with Shoe B. Calculate the average daily step count for Shoe A/Shoe B by adding up the total number of steps and dividing by the number of days.

For a paired comparison idea, I can measure my heart rate before going to work and after I get off work, over the course of a week. I can calculate my average heart rate by adding up the heart rate readings taken before/after work, and divide by the total number of readings for each.

I have a couple ideas of what data observations I am interested in. I am thinking of tracking my heart rate of when I wake up to when I go to sleep to see if there are any differences or even similarities. Also I'm interested in watching my heart rate before I do an activity and after doing an activity (walking/gym/etc.).

Then, I want to look online at the first 50-100 pictures of female vs males being active and compare it with race or body size. For the other ideas I would be comparing gender and race as far as being in a work environment.

I want to compare it to my sister's heart rate whenever she is active or at work to compare these results.

I want to see if I can find data from animal shelters by month, of maybe for two months of the year.  I'll call an animal shelter (like Yolo) and see if there is data, or search the internet for it.

I can use the data on animals in the shelters as a single average, and I can compare data for two different months as an independent averages example (like December/January maybe there are more animals in the shelter because of unwanted holiday gifts).
