You may use whatever method you prefer to complete the assignment (i.e. could be done in Excel, Jupyter Notebook, Tableau, etc.).

  1. The deliverable should be an email with findings from your work. Include screenshots of tables, charts, etc. to help tell the story. Additionally, attach any code you wrote.

Questions

  1. Forecast the YoY performance of three restaurant chains: EAT (period ending 12/23/2020), DRI (period ending 11/29/2020), and TXRH (period ending 12/29/2020) using the provided transaction data. The data to complete the request can be found in the “Case Study Data.xlsx” file.
  2. Write the SQL queries you would have used to calculate the quarterly YoY % changes in each of the restaurant chain’s transaction data.
  3. Use the Review Data to formulate an opinion on the quality of each restaurant chain.
  4. Tell us if you think there is any fundamental characteristics that separate one of these chains from the others. Tell us if you feel there is any reason to invest or why not to invest in any of these chains. Feel free to research and contemplate each chain’s position within broader secular changes.

Assignment Data file

Doing Tests of Proportions Quiz,
Qn1.
Download the file deviceprefs.csv from the course materials. This file describes a study in which people with and without disabilities indicated their preferences for touchpads or trackballs as computer input devices. You will use R to analyze this file to answer the questions in this quiz.. With this and every quiz in this course, you can find what you need by understanding and mimicking coursera.R, the R code file used in the lecture. This first question gives you credit for getting R, RStudio, and deviceprefs.csv ready to go. Are you ready to proceed?

Qn2. How many subjects’ preferences were recorded?
Note: For this and every other quiz in this course, when you miss a question, code will be revealed to help you. However, you cannot usually just copy the code verbatim. For example, the variable ‘df” is used throughout these code snippets to refer to the “data frame”, the term R uses for the variable that holds the .csv file that you read in. If you read in your .csv file into a variable with a name other than “df”, then you will need to use your variable name, not “df”. Similarly, the variable “m” is used in these code snippets to hold a fitted statistical model. If you use a variable name other than “m” for your model, you will need to change “m” to be your variable name.
Be sure that when you copy the code provided for missed questions, you understand that code by looking p the documentation for the R functions used. You can do that after loading a function’s library with the question mark operator. For example, if the function is “foo” then you would do:
?foo
As stated, this only works if the library defines “foo” is loaded. You load libraries into memory with the library command:
And this won’t work unless the “foolib” package is installed. You install packages using install.packages, which brings the package files into your computer and should only have to be done once:
Does the data table indicate a one-sample proportion or a two-sample proportion?
As described, the data table shows input device preferences of certain people with and without disability. How many subjects have a disability?
Ignoring for a moment disability status, perform a one-sample chi-square test to see whether the proportion of subjects who preferred the trackball (or touchpad) differed significantly from chance. To the nearest hundredth (two digits), what is the chi-square statistic? Hint: Note that this question is not asking for the p-value!

For people without disabilities, perform a binomial test to see whether their preference for touchpads differed significantly from chance. To the nearest ten-thousandth (four digits), what is the p-value? Hint: Run a binomial test comparing the sum of rows of people without disabilities who prefer the touchpad against the number of all rows of people without disabilities. With two possible preferences, touchpad and trackball, the chance probability would be 1/2/. Do not correct for multiple comparisons; consider this a single test on a subset of the data.

For people with disabilities, perform a binomial test to see whether their preference for touchpads differed significantly from chance. To the nearest ten-thousandth (four digits), what is the p-value? Hint: Run a binomial test comparing the sum of rows of people with disabilities. With two possible preferences, touchpad, and trackball, the chance probability would be 1/2. Do not correct for multiple comparisons; consider this a single test on a subset of the data.

Conduct a two-sample Chi-square test of proportions on preferences by disability status. To the nearest hundredth (two digits), what is the chi-square statistic?

Perform a two-sample G-test on preferences by disability status. To the nearest hundredth (to digits), what is the G statistic? Hint: Use the RVaideMemoire library and its G.test function.
Perform Fisher’s exact test on preferences by disability status. To the nearest ten-thousandth ( four digits), What is the p-value?

PSY 223 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric

The final project for this course is the creation of a statistical analysis report. The two research courses (PSY 223 and PSY 224) will demystify statistics and research methods in order to show that they are based on simple principles that apply to situations in the social sciences. In psychology, we need to distinguish what is “real” from what is “not real but looks real.” Is this patient really depressed? Does this form of group treatment of adolescents work better than a different form of treatment?

In this summative assessment, you will choose a scenario from a given set to be the basis for your statistical analysis report. Within the scenario, you will be given a data set based on two groups. You will apply the statistical analysis skills you have learned in this course to interpret the data and write up a report of the results. You will be evaluated not only on your computations but also on your explanation of the interpretation of the data.

The project is divided into three milestones and a final product. The milestones will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and to ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Two, Four, and Five. The final project will be submitted in Module
Seven.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:

Analyze descriptive and inferential statistics for preparing statistically accurate psychological research
Utilize appropriate statistical techniques for computing descriptive statistics and generating graphs regarding statistical analyses of psychological research
Select appropriate statistical procedures for use in statistical analyses regarding psychological research
Interpret the results of statistical analyses of psychological research data for drawing informed conclusions regarding the implications of psychological research
Assess scenarios involving statistical procedures for ensuring alignment with the expectations of the APA Ethical Principles of Psychologists

Estimate the linear effect of dose

Background: This second part of the assignment requires some more theoretical work based on fitting a linear regression model to investigate the effect of three dosage levels on an outcome. Suppose a clinical investigator is interested in examining the relationship between the effect of increasing doses of vitamin D supplement given to individuals who are Vitamin-D deficient. She performs a randomised trial in which she allocates (at random) volunteers to three groups, 1000 IU (International Units), 2000 IU and 3000 IU of supplement, per day for a perion of three months, after whcih the serum levels of a key metabolite of Vitamin D called 25 (OH) D are measured in each participant. (N.B. This is a hypothetical scenrio based on a real question that is current in epidemiology at the moment.)

Question 1
One possible analysis of the data described is to estimate the linear effect of dose, i.e to assume a linear relationship of expected outcome (labelled Y, as usual) to dose level, which for simplicity we will represent as X = 1,2,3 representing doses 1000IU, 2000IU, and 3000 UI respectively. To estimate the average rate of change in Y with dose we would fit the simple linear regression model with the standard assumptions for the error term:

Yi = Bo + B1x1 + ei

To objective is to show (algebraically) that if the sample size allocation between group1 1, group 2 and group 3 is 1:1:4 (i.e. n1-n, n2=n, n3 = 4n), then the leat squares estimate of B1 is

B1 = (4Y_bar3 - 3Y_bar1 - Y-bar2)/7

Question 2
The dataset provided contains some simulated data that might have arisen from the study just described, with 15 participants in groups 1, and 2, and 60 participants in dose group 3. Fit the regression model discussed above and demonstrate that the result obtained from B1 in question 1 is true in this sample.
