6. 1 DESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS
Two types of descriptive statistics being shown above. The first data was meant for Descriptive Statistics under Regression while the second data was meant for Descriptive Statistics for Inferential Analysis.
In the output presented above, the information requested for each of the variables is summarized. For the variable total score of life satisfaction, we have information from 40 respondents from level 1 until level 4 respectively (each level consisted of 10 participants, 5 males and 5 females). In addition, total score of eating attitude (M = 11.7, SD = 8.9) were lower than control group (M = 22.6, SD = 4.6).
The graph above has shown normal distribution. This is because the shape is considered as unimodal shape. Next, the type of symmetric meant for normal distribution is zero skewness. Thirdly, Mesokurtic is the peak for this normal distribution. Lastly, the bell curve is normally distribution.
6.2 INFERENTIAL ANALYSIS
The data above has shown Chi-Square tests. First, based on the Pearson Chi-Square t(3.30)=366.72. p<0.08, which is not statistically significant. It is two tailed test.
REGRESSION
A simple linear regression was conducted to examine whether eating attitudes could predict life satisfaction. The result showed that eating attitudes significantly predicts life satisfaction, F(1,38) = 7.37, p<0.01 which is less than 0.05, and indicates that, overall, the regression model statistically significant predict the life satisfaction variable. The eating attitudes accounted for 16.2% of the explained variability in life satisfaction.
