STATS WEEK 6 ASSIGNMENT

Week six

A tutorial is a step-by-step guide with logical steps in which attention to detail is paramount. A tutorial is a set of instructions that guides a reader and the result is that the reader now knows how to do something that they did not know how to do before.

For this task, you will prepare a tutorial on quasiexperimental and experimental designs. Your tutorial will serve as a step-by-step guide as to how you would use statistical analysis in both designs.

Support your tutorial with at least 5 references from scholarly sources.

Length: 5-7 pages
