• Hypothesis: State why you believe it is happening.

• What dependent variables/factors do you believe may be affecting your chosen scenario (i.e., age, workload, work shift, ineffective communications)?

• What type of factor did you identify (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio)?

• Are there any potential extraneous variables? Why or why not. If so please list two to three.

• Method: What method would best reflect an accurate analysis of the situation (e.g., quasi-experimental or phenomenology, etc.)? Include your rationale.
