For example, What is the relationship between education (IV) and political ideology (DV)? How does gender shape the amount of housework individuals do within heterosexual marriages?
2. Identify the alternative hypothesis (write your hypothesis in words and in greek notation- H: X >/<X)
3. Identify the null hypothesis (write your hypothesis in words and in greek notation)
4. Is the hypothesis directional or non-directional? What is the hypothesized relationship between the variables?
INTERNATIONAL RELATIONSHIP: (please finish this one first and send it to me in 4 hours)
1: At the founding of the United Nations, the concept of sovereignty (non-interference from external state actors) was regarded as central to the system of states. States were regarded as equal, no higher authority nor superior jurisdiction was accepted. Since the end of the cold war, however, this firm conception of sovereignty has in some instances been relaxed. What are the key reasons for this new, more loose conception of sovereignty? Provide an example (from the last 25+ years) of a situation in international affairs where the concept of sovereignty has been relaxed and discuss briefly the consequences of the acceptance of the more loose concept of sovereignty in that particular case.
