For this assignment, you will produce a brief research document about the subject of your data collection and analysis. The minimum length is five (5) pages not including Title Page, Abstract, and References.
Title page
An Abstract
A Brief Introduction.
Be sure to clearly state why the data analysis you performed is important to the aerospace/aviation/industry community. What could be learned from your analysis that could improve understanding, safety, etc.? Summarize this section within 2 – 3 paragraphs.
A Brief Literature Review.
Collect a minimum of four (4) references from the Hunt Library on the subject related to your data. For example, if you analyzed accident data, search for research articles related to the types of accidents you analyzed. References should be from scholarly journals. If you cannot find articles related to your data, consult with the course instructor. Discuss each paper and how it relates to your data analysis. What have researchers found in the subject area? What conclusions did they make? How might this relate to your current analysis? Summarize this section within 2 – 3 pages.
Review Methods you used
What method of inquiry did you use? What data did you use? Where/how did you collect it? How did you process the data? What statistical test did you use? Why did you use it? How did you ensure the data met the assumptions of the test? Discuss sample size and power. Summarize this section within 2 – 3 paragraphs.
Results
Discuss what you found. What were the results of your statistical analysis (note: DO NOT include this in the review of methods’ section)? Were the findings significant or not? What post-test or additional tests did you conduct (if applicable)? Summarize this section within 2 – 3 paragraphs.
Conclusions
Discuss how your findings relate to previous research. Are your findings different? The same? This is where you can make comments about how your findings can improve understanding of the subject. It is important to synthesize your findings and the materials you found in the literature review. What are the implications of your findings? Summarize this section at a minimum of 1 page.
Appendices
Provide all charts and graphs. Be sure to label in APA format. You should refer to these within the body of the document (above sections).
Research Problem: Exploring airport delays at airports in the New England section of the United States from 2015-2021.
Research Question: Did airports in New England experience flight delays due to the COVID pandemic?
Alternate Hypothesis: Maine, Massachusetts, and Connecticut had an increase in delays from 2015-2021.
Null Hypothesis: Maine, Massachusetts, and Connecticut did not have an increase in delays in 2015-2021.
Which statistical tests are you considering?
Z-stat one sample
Anova (ANOVA will use data from 2020 to determine if two or more states delays are different from each other)
Population Confidence Interval
Variables
Data of delayed flights in New England from 2015-2021 will be used for population and 2020 will be used for sample.
