Hypothesis and Testing Assignment

By: Morgan Cooper

Question: What is the hypothesis for the study and was it tested properly?

Study: "Online book clubs for preteens and teens"Hypothesis: "Given adolescents predisposition to technology, online book clubs may be a motivating factor for preteens and teens to sustain and encourage their voluntary reading of books and other print and multimedia as they move through adolescence"

Was it tested properly?

-The short answer to that question is no.-Although the reserchers found some interesting information in this case study, it wasn't statistically or practically significant.-There were no statistics involved in this study.-There was no design or methodology, it was just looking at other articles or information to come to their conclusions.

How should this hypothesis be tested?

-I think this hypothesis should have been tested using a mixed methods approach-I also think it should have included a statistical analysis so that the results would be more believable and meaningful-The reader wasn't given any insight about how these results were achieved --
