CONCLUSION

by dena raheem & tia elkhatib

Our p-value came out a bit too big. Greater than alpha at a .05 level of significance, it was .511, so we fail to reject our null hypothesis. Therefore we do not have any evidence to claim there is a association between a subject area a teacher teaches and his/her favorite color.

The studies in my background I had read about prior to the study I conducted should have told me something about the results that were drawn. If you look at the background page, I have recorded a few studies about people and their favorite colors. It is PEOPLE that is the key word. I believe it has nothing to do with being a teacher that makes your favorite color, but your favorite color derives from the type of person you are. Once again, mentioning the studies on my background page, there is a difference between men and women when it comes to colors of all sorts that they like and dislike. So I think I should have stuck to doing a study that compared and contrasted men and women teachers and their favorite colors. That would have most likely lead me to results where there is actually a difference in something, find a difference between two populations perhaps.
