Abstract
This DATASET includes the raw data set and the statistical analysis of a family of experiment to empirically study the factors that affect the effectiveness of MDD based on the measurement of accuracy.
The statistical analysis includes prior descriptive analysis of the variables defined in the study, the use of PCA (Principal Components Analysis) to understand the relationships between the variables selected to answer some of our research questions, hypothesis testing and calculations of the effects that the studied factors may have on the dependent variable accuracy in MDD contexts.
The research questions we intend to answer with the attached analysis are:
RQ1 - Is the effectiveness of MDD affected by academic achievement?
RQ2 - Is the effectiveness of MDD affected by previous experience with conceptual models?
RQ3 - Is the effectiveness of MDD affected by professional experience at software companies?
RQ4 - Are developers who are good at CcD also good at MDD?
RQ5 – Is the effectiveness of MDD affected by the MDD tool?
