Leona wants to investigate middle school students’ study habits. She thinks that there is a relationship between the amount of studying and a student’s grade point average. What variables should she use to collect data?
1. Amount of time spent studying (measured in hours or minutes per day)
2. Grade point average (GPA)
3. Number of study breaks taken during study sessions
4. Preferred study methods (e.g., flashcards, reading, group study sessions)
5. Use of study aids or resources (e.g., textbooks, online resources)
6. Frequency of studying for exams or assignments
7. Grade achieved on most recent exam or assignment
8. Self-reported motivation levels to study
9. Sleep habits (e.g., number of hours of sleep per night)
10. Extracurricular activities and other time commitments
11. Demographic information (e.g., age, gender, socioeconomic status)
