The document discusses various measures used to summarize sample data, including measures of central tendency (location) and spread (dispersion). It describes how to calculate the arithmetic mean, mode, and median of raw data and frequency tables. The mean is the average value, the mode is the most frequent observation, and the median is the middle value when data is ordered from lowest to highest. For skewed data, the mode or median may better indicate central tendency than the mean. The document also introduces the interquartile range as a measure of spread and shows how to calculate percentiles from raw and grouped frequency data.
The document summarizes key concepts in describing data with numerical measures from a statistics textbook chapter. It covers measures of center including mean, median, and mode. It also covers measures of variability such as range, variance, and standard deviation. It provides examples of calculating these measures and interpreting them, as well as using them to construct box plots.
The normal distribution, also known as the Gaussian distribution, is a bell-shaped curve that is symmetric about the mean. It has three key properties: 1) the mean, median and mode have the same value and fall in the center of the curve, 2) it is perfectly symmetrical with equal areas under both halves of the curve, and 3) it extends from negative to positive infinity but almost all values lie within 3 standard deviations of the mean. The normal distribution is widely used in statistics as a model for many continuous random variables.
The Interpretation Of Quartiles And Percentiles July 2009Maggie Verster
The document discusses measures of central tendency and dispersion used to summarize data, including the mean, median, mode, range, quartiles, and percentiles. It explains that the mean is best for values representing magnitudes, the median for ranking, and the mode for popularity. Quartiles and percentiles divide a sorted data set into four and one hundred equal parts respectively. A high percentile is desirable for exams but not waiting times, while a low percentile is preferable for race times. Together these statistics provide a concise overview of a data set.
This document discusses measures of central tendency and dispersion for ungrouped data, including the mean, quartiles, deciles, and percentiles. It provides formulas for calculating these values and examples worked out step-by-step. The mean is defined as the average value of the data. Quartiles divide the data into four equal parts, with the first quartile being the 25th percentile, second quartile the 50th percentile (median), and third quartile the 75th percentile. Deciles and percentiles further divide the data into 10 and 100 equal parts, respectively, using formulas that calculate the cutoff points.
This document defines and discusses quartiles, deciles, and percentiles. Quartiles divide a data set into four equal parts, with the first quartile (Q1) representing the lowest 25% of values. Deciles divide data into ten equal parts. Percentiles indicate the value below which a certain percentage of observations fall. Examples are provided for calculating Q1, Q3, D1 using formulas for grouped and ungrouped data sets. Quartiles, deciles, and percentiles are commonly used to summarize and report on statistical data.
This document discusses different measures of central tendency including the mean, median, and mode. It provides definitions and examples of how to calculate each measure. The mean is the average and is calculated by adding all values and dividing by the total number. The median is the middle value when values are arranged from lowest to highest. The mode is the most frequent value. The appropriate measure depends on the type of data and distribution. The mean is generally preferred but the median is better for skewed or open-ended distributions.

Measures of dispersion describe how similar or spread out scores in a data set are. The three main measures are range, semi-interquartile range (SIR), and variance/standard deviation. Range is the difference between the highest and lowest scores. SIR is less affected by outliers than range. Variance/standard deviation quantify the average squared distance of scores from the mean, with larger numbers indicating more spread out data. Skew and kurtosis further describe the shape of distributions.
This document discusses measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of dispersion (range, standard deviation). It explains how to calculate each measure and their strengths and weaknesses. For example, the mean is more sensitive than the median but can be skewed by outliers, while the median is not affected by outliers but is less sensitive. The document also provides examples of calculating and interpreting the mean, range, and standard deviation using sample data.
Measures of dispersion describe how similar or spread out scores in a data set are. The three main measures are:
1) The range, which is the difference between the highest and lowest scores.
2) The semi-interquartile range, which is the difference between the first and third quartiles divided by two.
3) Variance and standard deviation, which measure how far scores deviate from the mean on average, with larger values indicating more spread out data. Variance is the average of the squared deviations from the mean.
This document discusses different measures of position and distribution in statistics including standard scores (z-scores), quartiles, deciles, and percentiles.
It defines standard scores as measuring how many standard deviations a value is from the mean. Quartiles divide a sorted data set into four equal parts, with the lower and upper quartiles marking the boundaries between the lower/upper half of data. Deciles divide data into 10 equal parts. Percentiles indicate the percentage of values in a data set that fall below a given value.
The document provides examples of how to calculate and interpret these different measures using sample data sets.

Grouped data and calculating variance from grouped data is also covered. Applications of standard deviation are listed.
This document discusses descriptive statistics for one variable. Descriptive statistics summarize and describe data through measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode), variability (variance, standard deviation), and relative standing (percentiles). The mean is the average value, the median is the middle value, and the mode is the most frequent value. Variance and standard deviation describe how spread out the data is. Percentiles indicate what percentage of values are below a given number. Examples are provided to demonstrate calculating and interpreting these common descriptive statistics.
The document discusses standard scores and normal distributions. It explains that in a normal distribution, the majority of scores will be average, some above average, and few extremely high or low. It also describes how normal curves are bell shaped and centered around the mean. The document provides examples of how to calculate standard scores by converting a raw score to a z-score based on the mean and standard deviation. It demonstrates how standard scores can be used to compare performance across tests with different averages and variances.
Descriptive statistics provide a concise summary of data in a meaningful way through methods like measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode), measures of dispersion, frequency distributions, and graphs. It allows for simpler interpretation of large data sets but does not allow for generalization beyond the sample or testing of hypotheses.

Common techniques include tabulation, graphical representation like histograms and calculation of mean, median and mode to describe and compare distributions.
The document discusses key concepts related to probability and statistics, including:
- Probability is a number that reflects the likelihood of an event occurring, ranging from 0 to 1.
- Standard deviation measures how spread out values are from the mean.
- The normal distribution is a bell-shaped curve used to model naturally occurring phenomena.
- The t-distribution is similar to the normal distribution but with heavier tails, used when sample sizes are small.
- The normal probability curve is a graphical representation of the normal distribution, and is used to determine probabilities and percentiles.
This document summarizes various statistical measures used to describe and analyze numerical data, including measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode), measures of variation (range, interquartile range, variance, standard deviation, coefficient of variation), and ways to describe the shape of distributions (symmetric vs. skewed using box-and-whisker plots). It provides definitions and formulas for calculating these common statistical concepts.
The document discusses key concepts related to the normal distribution, including:
- The normal distribution is characterized by two parameters: the mean (μ) and standard deviation (σ).
- Many real-world variables, like heights and test scores, are approximately normally distributed.
- Z-scores allow comparison of observations across different normal distributions by expressing them in units of standard deviations from the mean.
The document discusses various measures of central tendency, dispersion, and shape used to describe data numerically. It defines terms like mean, median, mode, variance, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, range, interquartile range, skewness, and quartiles. It provides formulas and examples of how to calculate these measures from data sets. The document also discusses concepts like normal distribution, empirical rule, and how measures of central tendency and dispersion do not provide information about the shape or symmetry of a distribution.
This document outlines key concepts in descriptive statistics including measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode), measures of variability (range, standard deviation, variance), and measures of shape (skewness, kurtosis). It defines these terms and concepts, provides examples of how to compute them, and explains how to interpret and compare distributions based on these measures. The learning objectives are to understand and be able to calculate various descriptive statistics and use them to analyze and describe data distributions.
The bell curve, also known as the normal curve or Gaussian curve, is a theoretical distribution that shows how often an experiment will produce a particular result. The curve is symmetrical and bell-shaped, with most results clustering around the average and fewer results deviating further from the average. The narrower the bell shape, the higher the confidence in experimental results. The normal distribution underlies many real-world distributions and has advantages like being easy to manipulate mathematically, but also limitations like assuming distributions are not fat-tailed.
This document discusses measures of central tendency including the mean, median, and mode. It provides examples of calculating the mean from raw data sets and frequency distributions.

The document summarizes an outreach conference focused on engaging students in computing. It describes an Easter study school program for 12 students ages 14-17 that included 5 study sessions and 4 workshops over 5 days. Surveys of participants found that activities with high aesthetic appeal, physical objects, and interactivity increased student engagement, while unfamiliar topics and similarities to classroom lessons reduced engagement. The goal is to use insights from outreach to improve curriculum and encourage more students to pursue computing degrees.
Usability refers to how easy user interfaces are to use and is defined by five key components: learnability, efficiency, memorability, errors, and satisfaction. Usability aims to ensure something works well for average users without causing frustration. Some rules of good usability include observing rather than just listening to users, making things obvious so users don't have to think, including search features, ensuring fast page loads, and allowing easy use of the back button. Users form mental maps of sites, so design should support easy navigation.

It discusses populations and samples, measures of central tendency like mean and median, measures of variation like standard deviation and coefficient of variation, distributions like Gaussian and standard normal, and methods of analyzing data like linear regression and correlation coefficient. Uncertainty analysis is also covered, including identifying possible outliers using z-scores and Chauvenet's criterion.
This document discusses various measures of central tendency and dispersion that are used to summarize univariate data sets. It covers the mean, median, mode, range, variance, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation. Formulas are provided for calculating each of these measures from both ungrouped and grouped data. The key properties of each measure are also outlined.
This document discusses various measures of central tendency including the mean, median, and mode. It provides examples of how to calculate each measure using both raw data sets and frequency distributions. The mean is calculated by adding all values and dividing by the total number of cases. The median is the middle value when cases are arranged in order. The mode is the most frequent value. Limitations of each measure are also outlined, such as the mean being affected by outliers and the median requiring ordered data.
This document summarizes the key topics and concepts covered in Chapter 2 of the 9th edition of the business statistics textbook "Presenting Data in Tables and Charts". The chapter discusses guidelines for analyzing data and organizing both numerical and categorical data. It then covers various methods for tabulating and graphing univariate and bivariate data, including tables, histograms, frequency distributions, scatter plots, bar charts, pie charts, and contingency tables.
This document provides an outline and overview of descriptive statistics. It discusses the key concepts including:
- Visualizing and understanding data through graphs and charts
- Measures of central tendency like mean, median, and mode
- Measures of spread like range, standard deviation, and interquartile range
- Different types of distributions like symmetrical, skewed, and their properties
- Levels of measurement for variables and appropriate statistics for each level
The document serves as an introduction to descriptive statistics, the goals of which are to summarize key characteristics of data through numerical and visual methods.
When fitting loss data (insurance) to a distribution, often the parameters that provide a good overall fit will understate the density in the tail.
This method allows one to split the distribution into 2 portions, and use a Pareto distribution to fit the tail.
Presented at the CAS Spring Meeting in Seattle, May 2016.
This document discusses various measures of dispersion used in statistics including range, quartile deviation, mean deviation, and standard deviation. It provides definitions and formulas for calculating each measure, as well as examples of calculating the measures for both ungrouped and grouped quantitative data. The key measures discussed are the range, which is the difference between the maximum and minimum values; quartile deviation, which is the difference between the third and first quartiles; mean deviation, which is the mean of the absolute deviations from the mean; and standard deviation, which is the square root of the mean of the squared deviations from the arithmetic mean.
The document discusses measures of variability in statistics including range, interquartile range, standard deviation, and variance. It provides examples of calculating each measure using sample data sets. The range is the difference between the highest and lowest values, while the interquartile range is the difference between the third and first quartiles. The standard deviation represents the average amount of dispersion from the mean, and variance is the average of the squared deviations from the mean. Both standard deviation and variance increase with greater variability in the data set.
Missing Parts I don’t think you understood the assignment.docxannandleola
Missing Parts:
I don’t think you understood the assignment. I am looking at it, all I see is where you entered
SAS codes and then that’s it. These SAS codes you inputted, I’d like to see some results, such as
these things I am about to mention:
Part I)
1. (2 pts.) Import the data into your software. Be sure to check that your data looks
exactly like the original data before proceeding! 2. (2 pts.) For BOTH of your
original quantitative variables, create TWO categorized versions based upon cutoffs
of your choice. One binary version and one multi-level version with 3-5 groups. Use
numbers for the new variables to represent the groups. No group should have less
than 10% of the overall sample. Be sure you define your groups so that they do not
overlap and you do not miss any observations. • In SPSS this can be done using
TRANSFORM and RECODE INTO DIFFERENT VARIABLE. • In SAS you need
to use a DATA step with IF-THEN statements to create the new variables. 3. (2 pts.)
Create translations which provide the range of values for the variables created in
Question 3. • In SPSS this is done in the variable view using the “Values” column. •
In SAS you need to create the formats using PROC FORMAT and then assign those
formats to the appropriate variables using a DATA step. 4. (3 pts.) Label all
variables with descriptive titles. • In SPSS this is done in the variable view using the
“Label” column. • In SAS you need to use a DATA step which includes a LABEL
statement.
All the codes I’m looking at, I didn’t need to see them, I expect to see them in a table. I’ve
similar exercises, and that’s not how they look.
PART II)
Part 2: Descriptive Summary of Each Variable 5. (6 pts.) Calculate the sample size, sample
mean, sample median, sample standard deviation, min, max, Q1, Q3, and 95% confidence
interval for the population mean for your two quantitative variables. Provide the software
output containing these results in your solution. 6. (6 pts.) Construct a histogram, boxplot,
and QQ-plot for your two quantitative variables. Provide only the graphs in your solution.
7. (8 pts.) Construct a frequency table for each of the four variables created in Question 3.
8. (6 pts.) Provide a brief discussion of the distribution of your two main variables using as
much of the information in Questions 5-7 as possible (and yet remain as concise as
possible).
Where did you do all these calculations; I didn’t see anything. I did see a histogram, that’s all I
saw. Where’s the box plot, QQ plot, there was no graph. Also, you didn’t provide any discussion.
PART III)
Part 3: Case QQ - Using the two quantitative variables 9. (2 pts.) Construct a scatterplot.
Provide only this plot in your solution. 10. (2 pts.) Regardless of whether it is appropriate,
calculate Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Provide the output containing the estimate and
the p-value. 11. (3 pts.) Regardless of whether it is a ...

The document discusses various statistical measures used to describe data, including measures of central tendency and dispersion.
It introduces the mean, median, and mode as common measures of central tendency. The mean is the average value, the median is the middle value, and the mode is the most frequent value. It also discusses weighted means.
It then discusses various measures of data dispersion, including range, variance, standard deviation, quartiles, and interquartile range. The standard deviation specifically measures how far data values typically are from the mean and is important for describing the width of a distribution.
The document discusses basic statistical descriptions of data including measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode), dispersion (range, variance, standard deviation), and position (quartiles, percentiles). It explains how to calculate and interpret these measures. It also covers estimating these values from grouped frequency data and identifying outliers. The key goals are to better understand relationships within a data set and analyze data at multiple levels of precision.
The document discusses various quality tools used to solve problems including flowcharts, run charts, control charts, histograms, stratification, and other graphs. It provides information on how to construct and interpret these tools. Flowcharts are described as a way to visually map out processes and identify complex steps. Control charts are presented as a method to monitor processes and detect assignable causes by tracking variation over time. Stratification is introduced as a statistical technique to break down data into meaningful groups to better understand sources of variation.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST MEASURE OF
LOCATION?
• When choosing the best measure of location, we
need to look as the SHAPE of the distribution.
• For nearly symmetric data, the mean is the best
choice.
• For very skewed (asymmetric) data, the mode or
median is better.
• The mean moves further along the tail than the
median, it is more sensitive to the values far from
the centre.
SYMMETRIC histogram:
Mean = Median = Mode
A POSITIVELY SKEWED (skewed to the right)
histogram has a longer tail on the right side:
Mode < Median < Mean
A NEGATIVELY SKEWED (skewed to the left)
histogram has a longer tail on the left side:
Mean < Median < Mode
PROBLEM
•We can find two very different data sets (one
distribution very spread out and another very
concentrated) with measures of central
tendency EQUAL.
•To find a true idea of our sample, we have to
MEASURE THE SPREAD OF A DISTRIBUTION,
called the spread dispersion.

MEASURINGSPREAD
•Think of a distribution in terms of
percentages, a horizontal axis equally divided
into 100 percentiles.
•The 10th percentile marks the point below
which 10% of the observations fall, and
above which 90% of observations fall.
•The 50th percentile, below which 50% of the
observations lie, is the median.

MEASURINGSPREAD
• When we use the MEAN as our measure of central
tendency, we usually choose A MEASURE OF HOW FAR
THE DATA IS SPREAD OUT AROUND THE MEAN.
• Two measures of spread that are based on the mean are
the VARIANCE and the STANDARD DEVIATION.
• An advantage of standard deviation is that it is measured
in the same units as the original observations.
• The variance and standard deviation are closely related.
• The variance (𝒔 𝟐 or 𝝈 𝟐) is the square of the standard
deviation (𝒔 or 𝝈).
