Summary:
This Dataset is designed for learning how to avoid HARKing, which is an acronym that stands for "hypothesizing after results known," in -hypothesis significance testing (NHST). HARKing is the deliberate alteration of the null hypothesis after the results are known. Understanding what HARKing is and avoiding it within research practice are both ethical and professional. This guide outlines what HARKing is and what it involves, including how to avoid doing it. The NHST approach to data can unintentionally encourage HARKing, so it is important to understand the links between the two. This Dataset is a subset of data derived from the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles (Natsal-3) Open-Access Teaching Dataset (2010-12). The Dataset file is accompanied by a Student Guide and a How-to Guide for IBM SPSS.
