Answer 1

The researcher analyzed the collected data which they gathered through one-to-one interviews and other related sources and it was based on the experiments. Out of all the given option, Experimental level of measurement is suitable for this data set (Fisher, 1925).

Answer 2

From the given table, the mean value of post test empowerment score in the control group is 97.12. The mean value of this group is least among the other two variables.

Answer 3

By comparing the mean of two different measures group provides affluent information about the nature of the data (Goulden, 1939). The average value of post test for depression group is 13.36 and the average value of baseline for depression score of the experimental group is 14. The mean values of both the measure group defines that the posttest means score value is lower than the baseline mean score. The investigator created a probable finding before attempting a research program. It was predicted that after completing the assumptions of the empowerment design that made by the researchers, it may conclude that the investigational group depression level would improve by taking immediate steps. These steps provide an affluent discussion that would beneficial for the researcher to reduce the errors. These steps help the researchers to use on further research cases and can obtain capable steps for lessening the depression level in the patients (Jacobson & Truax, 1991).

Answer 4

The post test depression score and the baseline mean value of control group level have stable value throughout the table. No change has further noticed because the values of control group such as baseline and post test has stays at 10.40 values. These scores of both the sections provide an ample knowledge about the research to the investigators. The values further reinforce the validity of the outcomes which the investigators have attained after the overall analysis (Fisher, 1970). The research methods are always affluent for the investigators because after the implementation of various methods they provide extensive and significant results which could beneficial for the researchers. These results also effectual in terms of prediction and provide a positive chance of improvement without empowerment plan program (Lloyd, 1952).

Answer 5

The three types of test scores have measured in this table such as the experimental, control and total. Out of all the three significant measures, the control group has the least value and because of its less value, it is the least significant among three measures. The variability and dispersion value is the least among the other variables. The standard deviation value of both post test and depression baseline values are exactly identical that is 10.34 and no variation has seen in the overall variables value (Moore,et.al, 2007).

Answer 6

The chart in this article has provided an overall summary of the three different measures levels. By observing the results on the given table, the self care efficacy factor has established the greatest quantity of dispersion in the overall ...
