Findings

The research problem is the low family involvement in young childrens’ lives. Family Fun Time Activities are activities that were created to help children learn more and help families spend more time together.

Chi-Squared of parent engagement by completion.

There is no significant difference between the two categories.

The correlation for v23 is v23 = 1, while v24 = .788 giving it significance at the .01 level. The correlation for v24 is v23 = .788, while v23 = 1 giving it significance at the .01 level. Therefore, the correlation for parent involvement is significantly different.

 Mean Per Completiontdf
Activity Completed9.5326.68***67.00
Activity Not Completed7.00  

Note. p<.05*, p<.01**, p<.001***

The mean activities completed score for activity completed was 9.53 out of 10 and the mean activities completed score for activity not completed was 7.00 out of 10. The t-test value was 26.68 and it was significant at the .001 level. Therefore, the mean activities completed is significantly different.

Between these three tables, two out of the three have significance shown in their findings. This shows that the more time families spent together doing the Family Fun Time Activities the greater the significance.
