Motivational training scheme to the swimming team

  Order Description         Scenario 1. A University asks a sport and exercise psychologist to introduce a motivational training scheme to the swimming team. At the start of the season she times the swimmers over 100 m in their chosen style. She then begins the motivational training before each twice- weekly training session for the season. During the week before the final event of the season she times the swimmers again over 100m in their original style. Scenario 2. An occupational psychologist was contracted to assess attitudes towards work and the workplace in two similar size branches of a company where productivity of the older branch had reached a plateau while the newer branch increased output monthly. The older branch was located in an industrialised urban location whereas the newer branch was situated in a newly built trading estate in a rural location. The psychologist predicted that employees of the most productive branch would have the most positive attitude to work. All employees were asked to complete a questionnaire. Higher scores indicated a positive attitude to work and the workplace. What you need to do For each scenario you need to: Decide what the design is (one is within subjects (repeated measures) the other is between subjects (independent groups)) Enter the data into SPSS and perform the following analyses o Descriptive statistics (Means/SDs/95% CI) for each condition For one of the scenarios you should report the descriptive statistics in a table (see Week 4 lecture) For the other scenario report the descriptive statistics in a bar chart with error bars showing 95% confidence intervals and precise statistical values given in text (see Week 4 lecture) So you end up with one results section with a table and one with a bar chart
