Given the hypothesis high employee satisfaction is correlated with low employee absenteeism, address the following in your paper this week:
- Identify the variables in this study. What are some extraneous variables that might impact your research? How would you control for extraneous variables?
- Which research design would you use to study this hypothesis and why?
- What data collection techniques would you use to study this hypothesis and why?
- Assuming that you get a correlation of r = -.70, what does this tell you about the strength and direction of the correlation between satisfaction and absenteeism?
- What are some potential problems you might encounter, and what strategies would you use to minimize these problems?
- Use APA standards.
