Quantitative Analysis Paper on Diabetes.

Quantitative Analysis Paper Outline This course requires writing a quantitative analysis paper in your area of interest. It includes identification of topic and any issues you want to deal with. Writing a paper with applications of data analysis and econometric model will build an understanding of theory of quantitative method and its application in the real business world. Thus students taking this course need to understand quantitative techniques. The following things that you are required to complete   Identification of topic of research, and finding out the hypothesis that you want to test,   Collecting data form secondary source or you can use the data that you already have, (I can help you to find data if you need any help)   Decision of the types of model you want to use,   Analyze the data and run the regression models and   present the results In general your paper may have following sections but you can choose a different format but has to have these components in the paper. Introduction Literature Review Method Data Results and Discussion Conclusions References Tables/Chart/Graphs Paper should be typed at12 point font size and double spaced. Students are required to review at least 8 recently published journals in their literature review and cite them in the text with a standard citation method. I will provide constructive comments and feedback on your writing assignments to improve the professional quality of the paper.
