1. What would you suggest to be the appropriate statistic tests to use and why ?
2. Any suggestions on stating the hypothesis in a more professional manner?
This is what I have so far
Null Hypothesis #1. There is no relationship between episodes of bullying and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Alternative Hypothesis #1. Post-traumatic stress disorder is directly related to episodes of bullying.
Null Hypothesis #2. There is no relationship with the severity of bullying episodes and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Alternative Hypothesis #2. The severity of bullying episodes is related to post-tramatic stress disorder.
