Question

1. Brief statement of the research topic and problem. As you get the dataset from me, you would need to use some imagination what research problem that data could be related to. Nevertheless, please state very briefly (i.e. in one paragraph) what theory (research literature or textbooks related to business or economics) says about the research problem – e.g. is there some dilemma or controversy that your research will help to clarify.

Answer 1

The research topic would be: Assessment of stress with the number of shifts

Identify the variables: Shift is the independent variable and Stress is the dependent variable

Stating hypothesis: Null hypothesis: There is no association between shift and stress

Alternate hypothesis: There is strong association between shift and stress

Identifying tools: Correlation or ANOVA

Deriving inference based on the results

Summarizing results
