Begin by opening <\/p>\n<p>Minitab. Once open, you will see two windows. The Session Window is in the top half of the screen and the Worksheet is below. Only one window is active at a time. <\/p>\n<p>Dataset Options<\/p>\n<p>In many cases, researchers may have the data from their study in another software package like Microsoft Excel. However, if the data is not available in a software <\/p>\n<p>spreadsheet you can manually enter the data. You may now choose to populate your Minitab worksheet using the provided Excel worksheet in Option 1 or try Manual Data <\/p>\n<p>Entry by following the instructions in Option 2.<\/p>\n<p>Option 1: Using Excel to populate Minitab<\/p>\n<p>To access the Excel worksheet populated with data, go to the Data Set Icon located to the right of the grading criteria above. You can copy and paste the data set <\/p>\n<p>directly from Excel into Minitab.<\/p>\n<p>Or<\/p>\n<p>Option 2: Manual Data Entry<\/p>\n<p>In the Worksheet window, type \u201cAge\u201d in C1. Enter the numbers as shown in the dataset below. Enter the remaining data as shown below (set up your column labels i.e., <\/p>\n<p>variable). The measure reflects math anxiety and the study variables (cringe, uneasy, afraid, worried, understand) the math anxiety range is from 1\u20135 with low being <\/p>\n<p>the least and 5 the highest.<\/p>\n<p>Age<\/p>\n<p>Cringe<\/p>\n<p>Uneasy<\/p>\n<p>Afraid<\/p>\n<p>Worried<\/p>\n<p>Understand<\/p>\n<p>28<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>34<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>25<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>56<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>23<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>29<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>30<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>59<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>45<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>38<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>33<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>47<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>24<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>29<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>53<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>48<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>27<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>34<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>26<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>2<\/p>\n<p>36<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>5<\/p>\n<p>4<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>Step 2: Run Descriptive Statistics<\/p>\n<p>Now that your data is in Minitab, you will look at the descriptive statistics for this dataset.
