Using your own criminal justice scenario as an example,I want each student to initially postwhy a linear regression is sometimes appropriate. In your criminal justice research scenario (with an independent and dependent variable found in criminal justice), draw a graph and plot some illustrative data you wish to draw a regression line though (i.e., drawan X and Y axis with proper labels of an independent and dependent variable, and insert some data points where regression is appropriate, and then draw where you think a regression line would go through it).
