Key Words 512 terms capturing the variables and methods Introduction Brief literature-based motivation and why the topic matters. Problem Statement Identify the gap (what we dont know yet) and why the question is important.. Hypothesis & Theory Define DV (dependent variable), main IV (key independent variable), and controls, then the rationale for expected relationships. Methodology Survey instrument, sampling target, recruitment, N, data cleaning/coding plan, and variable coding/labels. Findings (Results) Descriptive table(s) for demographics. Distribution of the DV (frequency/percent + mean). Cross-tab of main IV DV (percent distribution). Variance/SD tables for DV and key IV. Correlation matrix across variables (including DV). Conclusion Tie back to the hypothesis, summarize main patterns, acknowledge limits, and point to future research.
