Question

Using this scenario, answer the questions below. READ CAREFULLY.

Dr. Collins Research Council (CRC) is interested in knowing whether anti-racist activists with greater experience (X) in the racial justice movement have a higher level of critical consciousness (Y) about systemic racism. To conduct his study, CRC obtains a list of all active anti-racist activists from the Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ) network (a collection of anti-racist organizations). Fortunately for CRC, the list also contains other demographic information such as race, income, education, city of residence, etc. so CRC can compare their sample to the population. Using this list, CRC randomly selects 100 activists to participate in his survey study, to which all of them agree.

6.In the scenario above, the most appropriate null hypothesis would be:

Those people with more experience in the racial justice movement have a lower level of critical consciousness

There is no relationship between experience in the racial justice movement and critical consciousness

Experience in the racial justice movement and critical consciousness are highly correlated

Those people with more experience in the racial justice movement have a higher level of critical consciousness

7. In the scenario above, the most appropriate research hypothesis would be:

Anti-racist activists usually participate in SURJ

Those people with more experience in the racial justice movement have a higher level of critical consciousness

There is no relationship between experience in the racial justice movement and critical consciousness

SURJ has all the anti-racist activists in their network

8. In the scenario above, a directional hypothesis would be: "There is a relationship between experience in the racial justice movement and critical consciousness."
