CREATING A HYPOTHESIS WORKSHEET Group #: Members:
Example
List a Dependent Variables (DV) of interest to your group, with three dimensions for each. DVs are the areas you are interested in like attitudes about online learning, attitudes about dating, etc. Dimensions are just making more specific statements.
| Attitudes about Remote Working |
|
| (Work from home) |
|
|
Using the dependent variables from above. List at least six independent variables (IVs) that could be associated with that dependent variable. (IV – are items like age, income, major, etc.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
For your selected dependent variable, write three conceptual hypotheses (independent variable affects a dimension of the dependent variable). Example: Age affects attitudes about online learning.
| 1. Age affects attitudes about job satisfaction |
| 2. Type of work affects attitudes about productivity levels |
| 3. Residence affects attitudes about job satisfaction |
List an indicator for the three independent variables you used in #3 above. Make sure you state them as a comparison between mutually exclusive and exhaustive groups.
| Age | 19 and under/ 20 – 29/ 30 – 39/ 40 – 49/ 50+ |
| Type of Work | Food Service/ Education/ Hospitality/ Financial/ Info Tech/ |
| Human Resources/ Retail/ Insurance/ Transportation | |
| Residence | Small (<20,000 pop); medium (20,000 – 200,000)/ Large (> 200,000 |
Convert your conceptual (general) hypotheses to operational (specific) hypotheses using the following form: (IV) tend to support (DV dimension) more (or less) often than (Other IV)
| People under 40 | tend to support | Remote Work | More / Less than | Those 40 & over |
| IT Workers | tend to support | Remote work is more productive | More / Less than | Those in other industries |
| People in large cities | tend to support | Remote work | More / Less than | Those in small cities |
Hypothesis 1
List a Dependent Variables (DV) of interest to your group, with three dimensions for each. DVs are the areas you are interested in like attitudes about online learning, attitudes about dating, etc. Dimensions are just making more specific statements.
| 1.Attitude of student about decisions to retake the test. | |
| Retaking the test | 2.Stress level or anxiety related to retake the test. |
| 3.Motivation to improve performance after retaking the test. |
Using the dependent variables from above. List at least six independent variables (IVs) that could be associated with that dependent variable. (IV – are items like age, income, major, etc.)
| 1.Age |
| 2.Gender |
| 3.Major/field of study |
| 4.GPA( Academic Performance) |
| 5.Study habits (hours of study per week) |
| 6.Past experience of retaking the test |
For your selected dependent variable, write three conceptual hypotheses (independent variable affects a dimension of the dependent variable). Example: Age affects attitudes about online learning.
| 1.The past experience affects the stress level or anxiety attitudes about retaking test. |
| 2. Type of major affects attitudes about retaking test. |
|
List an indicator for the three independent variables you used in #3 above. Make sure you state them as a comparison between mutually exclusive and exhaustive groups.
Example: Age: 19 and under/ 20 – 29/ 30 – 39/ 40 – 49/ 50+
| Past Experience | Previous test experience, feedback from others, Experience dealing with pressures,… |
| Type of major | Computer Science, Nursing, Business, Arts,… |
| Academic Performmance | <2.0, 2.0-2.49, 2.5-2.99, 3.0-3.49, 3.5-4.0 |
Convert your conceptual (general) hypotheses to operational (specific) hypotheses using the following form: (IV) tend to support (DV dimension) more (or less) often than (Other IV)
Example: People under 40 tend to support online learning more often than those 40 and over.
| Feedback from others | tend to support | Retaking tests | More than | Experience dealing with pressures |
| Nursing | tend to support | Retaking tests | More than | Computer Science |
| 4.0 GPA | tend to support | Retaking tests | More than | <2.0 GPA |

Convert your conceptual (general) hypotheses to operational (specific) hypotheses using the following form: (IV) tend to support (DV dimension) more (or less) often than (Other IV)
Example: People under 40 tend to support online learning more often than those 40 and over.
