National Assessment of Educational Progress A survey done in 2015 by the NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress) on 8th grade students in public and BIE schools. Below is the percentage of students survey on if they feel they belong at school. Their website states "The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is the only assessment that measures what U.S. students know and can do in various subjects across the nation, states, and in some urban districts. Also known as The Nation’s Report Card, NAEP has provided important information about how students are performing academically since 1969" (NAEP 2019). The researcher at NAEP performed a survey in 2015. They asked 8th grade population " I feel I belong at school." The response ranged from " Not like me," "A little like me," and "A lot like me." According to the graph presented by NAEP out of 100 8th grade respondent 19 answered "Not like me," 40 respondents answered " A little like me" and 41 respondent answered "A lot like me." In my analysis I wanted to determine whether my data was statistically significant. In which I wanted to look at the difference between variables of the survey done in the NEAP. In which the two variables I decided to choose were "Not like me" and "A lot like me." The p-value is 0.000 meaning I will not commit a type one error.
According to the result presented in this survey of "I feel I belong" the ones that responded to " A lot like me" is significantly higher than the ones that responded to " Not like me." The results imply that I accept my null hypothesis. Furthermore, the variables I tested do not include a correlation between a culturally safe environment and a positive school adjustment.
