Answer 1

In the sample characteristics tab, my sample consisted of 20 participants who were students from my university. They all had in common that they were in the same age group and were enrolled in the same program. The survey was taken online through a Google Form. In the scatter plot analysis tab, the trend line shows a slight positive correlation between the variables.
