Enter these data into an SPSS data file. Ensure the variables are correctly labeled (nominal, ordinal, scale). Determine what question might be asked related to the Confidence Score of the last person in the data set. 2. Use SPSS to conduct basic descriptive statistics on the variables (e.g., frequency distribution, mean, median, mode, standard deviation, standard error). 3. Use SPSS to conduct a t-test to determine if a significant difference exists. Calculate the Pearson's Correlation between Years of Experience and Confidence Scores. 4. Use SPSS to create a scatter plot of Years of Experience and Confidence Scores. 5. Use scholarly writing and proper APA format to briefly discuss in narrative form, the results of the t-test and the correlation. 6. Use scholarly writing and proper APA format to present a table that clearly depicts several of the descriptive statistics calculated earlier. 7. Use scholarly writing and proper APA format to present a figure that depicting the scatter plot you generated earlier. 8.
