Hi This a social science class that is a part of a ” Public Administration” program.
The textbook for the class is the following:
Babbie, E. (2013). Social research counts. Belmont, CA: Wadsworth Cengage. ISBN: 978-1-111-83389-3
I ordered the book but still haven’t received it, so I’m hoping you have it already.
Its very important to tie course concepts from the book into the assignment.
Please use APA format for this paper.
Below are the instructions, Ill make sure I attach the files needed.
Professor’s instructions,
Education: Review the data tables in the ‘Indicators of School Crime and Safety: 2015’ report. The data tables
are listed on pages 126-193 of the report. Choose two or three of the data tables and write a paper as
described below. Access the report by clicking on the following link

Write a 4-5 page paper that addresses the following:
1) Identify the specific data tables/bases you selected. [Include the data table number as well as the page
number]
2) A brief description of the data sets. That is, what variables were examined in the data set, when were the
data collected, etc.?
3) List three (3) distinct social regularities (see Babbie, 2013, pp. 6-7) that could be studied with the data sets
you analyzed (list a total of three, not three for each data table). Explain why studying each of these issues
would be relevant — that is, why is it important that these data be analyzed and studied (how, and to whom, is
this information of value)? For example, if you chose data sets related to types of crimes and the victims of
those crimes, a ‘social regularity’ that could be studied might be the type of violent crime and the victim’s
race/ethnicity and/or gender. That is, a researcher would be trying to establish (through the data available in
the data set) whether these is a pattern or regularity in regard to whether a person’s race/ethnicity and/or
gender make them more likely to be a victim of various types of violent crimes.
