Part I. A researcher is interested in determining whether a relationship exists between sleep and quality of life. The researcher randomly invites students at Drexel University to participate in a study, which asks students to selfreport the number of hours per night they slept (on average) over the past 30 days. The students are then complete the Short-Form (36) Health Survey, a 36item survey assessing both physical and mental composite scores for quality of life. Using the Excel and JASP datasets provided, please answer the following questions when performing the bivariate correlation.

1. What is the research question? Why is a bivariate correlation appropriate to answer this research question?
2. Provide a statistical, symbolic, and substantive hypothesis for the research study.
3. Choose an a priori alpha level and designate whether the test is 1-tailed or 2-tailed.
