I am trying to find anappropriate statistical test to run for a research study usingsomeone else's gathered data (so that no IRB process is needed). Intheir data they present:
Likelihood of FallingAsleep:
Never 17
Seldom 22
Moderate 15
High 12
Use of napping duringduty:
Never 27
Rarely 19
Sometimes 16
Often 4
Both of these seem tobe independent variables, but is there a way to show a relationship(or lack thereof) without a dependent variable. In this case thedependent variable could be "pilot" of which 66 were surveyed forthe study that I am taking the data from. Trying accurately to showwhether or not the likelihood of falling asleep in the cockpit isrelated to whether or not the pilot naps on duty outside of thecockpit.
Thanks!
