BUSA 2182, MWF 1:00 p.m. - 1:50 p.m.

Explanatory Paragraph

A frequency distribution was conducted using group status, attachment, situational involvement,

enduring involvement, identity salience, satisfaction and attendance. The skewness coefficients situational

involvement, satisfaction, and attendance were acceptable. However, the skewness coefficients for

attachment, enduring involvement, and identity salience were unacceptable. The kurtosis coefficients for

attachment were acceptable. However, the kurtosis coefficient for situational involvement, enduring

involvement, identity salience, satisfaction, and attendance were not significant.

Explanatory Paragraph

A steam-and-leaf plot analysis was conducted using area, population, old, literacy, imports, exports,

and gdp. Stem-and-leaf plots for area, population, old, literacy, and imports were positively skewed.

However, gdp, were consistent with normal distribution. In addition, the steam-and-leaf plots for imports

and exports were inconsistent with normal distribution.

Explanatory Paragraph

Ŷ= -13.019 - .638 Attachment - .250 Attendance + .524 Situational Involvement

A multiple regression analysis was conducted with Enduring Involvement as the Endogenous

Variable and Attachment, Attendance, Situational Involvement, and Identity Salience as the Exogenous

Variable. Overall, the regression model was statistically significant (F = 161.190, p = 0.0001). Attachment,

Attendance, and Situational Involvement were significant predictors of Enduring Involvement. In addition,

Attachment, Attendance, and Situational Involvement were inversely related to the dependent measure,

Enduring Involvement. However, Identity Salience was not a significant predictor of Enduring Involvement.

The coefficient of correlation (r) indicated a moderate relationship between the predictors and Enduring

Involvement (r = .953). A model fit index, the coefficient of determination (R²), was .908, indicating that

90.8 percent of the variation in Enduring Involvement can be explained by Attachment, Attendance, and

Situational Involvement. The adjusted R², which considers the number of predictors and the sample size,

was .903, which indicated no extraneous predictors were included in the model. Because the Standard Error

of the estimate was 2.40222, the prediction equation was performing satisfactorily.

Explanatory Paragraph #1

Ŷ= -14.491 + .394 Attendance + .905 Satisfaction +.787 Enduring Involvement + .462 Identity Salience

A Stepwise regression analysis was conducted with Attachment as the dependent variable and

Attendance, Satisfaction, Enduring Involvement, and Identity Salience as the independent measures.

Overall, the regression model was statistically significant (F = 173.777, p = 0.0001). Attendance,

Satisfaction, Enduring Involvement and Identity Salience were significant predictors of Attachment. In

addition, Attendance, Satisfaction, Enduring Involvement and Identity Salience were inversely related to the

dependent measure, Attachment. The coefficient of correlation (r) indicated a moderate relationship between

the predictors and Attachment (r = .956). A model fit index, the coefficient of determination (R²), was .914,

indicating that .914 percent of the variation in Attachment can be explained by Attendance, Satisfaction,

Enduring Involvement and Identity Salience. The adjusted R², which considers the number of predictors and

the sample size, was .909, which indicated no extraneous predictors were included in the model. Because

the standard error of the estimate was 2.83614, the prediction equation was performing satisfactorily. Multi-

Collinearity was present in the regression model because the tolerance coefficient for Attendance was below

the minimal threshold value.

Explanatory Paragraph #2

A bivariate correlation analysis was conducted using, Attachment, Attendance, Satisfaction,

Enduring Involvement, and Identity Salience. Attachment was significantly correlated with Attendance,

Satisfaction, Enduring Involvement, and Identity Salience.

Explanatory Paragraph #1

Ŷ = 9.896 +.604 Attendance + .135 Attachment

A Hierarchical regression analysis was conducted with Satisfaction as the dependent variable, Attendance,

Attachment, Enduring Involvement, Identity Salience, and Situational Involvement as the independent

measures. Overall, the regression model was statistically significant (F = 65.603, p = 0.0001). Attendance

and Attachment were significant predictors of Satisfaction. In addition, aforementioned predictors were

positively related to the dependent measure, Satisfaction. Conversely, Enduring Involvement, Identity

Salience, and Situational Involvement were not significant predictors of Satisfaction. The coefficient of

correlation (r) indicated a strong relation between predictors and Satisfaction (r = .915). A model fit index,

the coefficient of determination (R²), was .837, indicating that 83.7 percent of the variation in Satisfaction

can be explained by Attendance and Attachment. The adjusted R², which considers the numbers of

predictors and the sample size, was .824, which indicated no extraneous predictors included in the model.

Because the standard error of the estimate was 1.181, the prediction equation was performing satisfactorily.

The Multi-Collinearity was present in the regression model because the tolerance coefficient for Enduring

Involvement, Identity Salience, and Situational Involvement was below the minimum threshold value.

Explanatory Paragraph #2

A bivariate correlation analysis was conducted using, Satisfaction, Attendance, Attachment,

Enduring Involvement, Identity Salience, and Situational Involvement. Satisfaction was significantly

correlated with Attendance, Attachment, Enduring Involvement, Identity Salience, and Situational

Involvement.

Explanatory Paragraph

A One-Way Anova Test was conducted using (X10) - Usage as the Factor Variable and X6 - Fast Service,

X8- Recommend to friend, X9 - Satisfaction Level, X11 - Distance Driven, and X12 - Friendly Employees

Rank as the Dependent Variables. The Omnibus F-test for X8- Recommend to friend, X9 - Satisfaction

Level, and X11 - Distance Driven were significant. However, the Omnibus F-test for X6 - Fast Service and

X12 - Friendly Employees Rank was not significant. The contrast analysis revealed that Heavy Users has

higher, X8- Recommend to friend, X9 - Satisfaction Level, and X11 - Distance Driven scores compared to

their Light User counterparts. However, Light Users have higher X6 - Fast Service and X12 Friendly

Employees Rank.

Explanatory Paragraph

A One-Way ANOVA Test was conducted using Surface as the Factor Variable and Salary, Average,

Stolen, and Wins as the Dependent Variable. The Omnibus F-Test was not significant for Salary, Average,

Stolen, and Wins. The contrast analysis reported that the One Surface reported higher number of Stolen and

Wins compared to the Zero Surface counterparts. In addition, Zero Surface reported higher Salary and

Average compared to the One Surface counterparts.

Explanatory Paragraph #1

Ŷ = -26557.728 + 3140.973 Education + 435.174 Age

A regression analysis was conducted with Wages as the Dependent Variable and Education, South,

Union and Age as the Independent Variables. Overall, the regression model was statistically significant (F =

8.122, p = .0001). A model fit index, the coefficient of determination (R²), was .255, indicating that 25.5

percent of the variation in Wages can be explained by Education, South, Union and Age. The coefficient of

correlation (r) indicated a strong relationship between the dependent variable and Wages (r = .505). In

addition the Independent Variable South and Union were not significant predictors of Wages. The adjusted

R² which considers the numbers of predictors and the sample size was .223, which indicated the Dependent

Variable were included in the model. Because the standard error of estimate was 14934.165, the prediction

equation was performing satisfactorily. The Multi-collinearity for South and Union was below the minimum

threshold value.

Explanatory Paragraph #2

A bivariate correlation analysis was conducted using, Wages, Education, South, Union, and Age.

Wages was significantly correlated with Education, Union, and Age. However, South was negatively

correlated with Wages.
