One of the components is descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics helps describe, show or summarize data in a meaningful way such that, for example, patterns might emerge from the data ( Laerd Statistics, 2013). Descriptive statistics basically describes the data you are analyzing. In the case study \u201cSocial Work Research: Measuring Group Success\u201d the descriptive statistics I might use to analyze the data gathered in the case study are 8 women, 5\/8 are Caucasian, 3\/8 are Hispanic, 1\/5 was married.8\/8 are heterosexual, and 8\/8 had PTSD ((Plummer, Makris, and Brocksen, 2014).The statistics I identified can guide me in evaluating the applicability of the study\u2019s findings for my own practice in social work by using the outcome of this study to help assist women who may have or are experiencing the same challenges. The study also mentioned strategies that were used which provided evidence as to which interventions may be helpful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>References<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Laerd Statistics, (2013).

Statistically significance would affect my practice decision making in a positive way because it would highlight a specific cause. The benefit would be helping a population that may have been studied before with the same issue and I would be able to connect causation. Clinical significance would affect my practice decision making in a constructive way as well because I would be able to focus on each patients functioning rather than grouping individuals together (Bauer,Lambert &amp;Nielsen, 2004, p 60).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In the article \u201cEffects of a New State Policy on Physical Activity Practices in Child Care Centers in South Carolina\u201d the study focused on determining the volume to which child care centers in South Carolina improved physical activity practices after a new policy went into effect ( O\u2019Neill et al.,2017). The statistically significance of the study was approached by the state-by time interaction of Physical Activity Environment Total Score in which overall acceptance of new physical standards in SC child care centers was associated with improvements in practices aimed at increasing children\u2019s physical activity ( O\u2019Neill et al.,2017). The study showed a statistical significance between the variable which was the standards of physical activity caused the improvements. The results would influence my practice as a social worker because I would conduct future research to help other centers and see if this strategy would work<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0Reference<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Bauer, S., Lambert, M., &amp; Nielsen, S.
