This document provides an overview of descriptive statistics. It discusses different types of descriptive statistics including measures of central tendency like mean, median and mode, and measures of variability. It also describes various ways of organizing and summarizing data, such as frequency distributions, histograms, stem-and-leaf plots and pie charts. The goal of descriptive statistics is to describe key characteristics of a data set in a simple and easy to understand way.
The document discusses the z-test, which is a hypothesis testing procedure that uses the z-statistic. It assumes the events under investigation follow the standard normal distribution. The z-test involves defining the null and alternative hypotheses, choosing the test statistic (the z-statistic), computing the critical region based on the significance level (typically 0.05 or 0.025), and determining whether the test statistic falls in the critical region to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. An example problem is provided to demonstrate how to perform a z-test.

This document provides information about statistical tests and data analysis presented by Dr. Muhammedirfan H. Momin. It discusses the different types of statistical data, such as qualitative vs quantitative and continuous vs discrete data. It also covers topics like sample data sets, frequency distributions, risk factors for diseases, hypothesis testing, and tests for comparing proportions and means. Specific statistical tests discussed include the z-test and how to calculate test statistics and compare them to critical values to determine statistical significance. Examples are provided to illustrate how to perform these tests to analyze differences between data sets.
Norm-referenced test scores are only valid if the norms are representative of the population. Norms are developed from normative samples that represent factors like gender, age, geography, race, and intelligence. Developing accurate and representative norms requires finding large sample sizes that properly proportion the population across these dimensions. Norms also need to be regularly updated to remain current and representative of today's population. Tests should only be interpreted using the norms they were designed for.

This document discusses several common probability distributions: binomial, Poisson, geometric, and normal. It provides characteristics, formulas, and examples of each. The binomial distribution describes independent yes/no trials with fixed probabilities. The Poisson distribution applies when the probability of an event is very small. The geometric distribution gives the number of trials until the first success. The normal distribution is symmetric and bell-shaped, describing many natural phenomena.
Partial correlation estimates the relationship between two variables while removing the influence of a third variable. It is a way to determine the correlation between two variables when controlling for a third. For example, a researcher may want to know the correlation between height and weight but also wants to control for gender, which can influence bone and muscle structure. Using the data sample provided, the correlation between height and weight was 0.825 but decreased to 0.770 when controlling for gender, showing gender partially explains the relationship between height and weight.

This document discusses statistics and their uses in various fields such as business, health, learning, research, social sciences, and natural resources. It provides examples of how statistics are used in starting businesses, manufacturing, marketing, and engineering. Statistics help decision-makers reduce ambiguity and assess risks. They are used to interpret data and make informed decisions. However, statistics also have limitations as they only show averages and may not apply to individuals.
This document provides an introduction to parametric tests in statistics. It defines a parametric test as a statistical test that makes specific assumptions about the population parameter. For a test to be considered parametric, the data must meet four conditions: it must be on an interval or ratio scale, subjects must be randomly selected, and the data must be normally distributed. Examples of parametric tests include t-tests, ANOVA, and z-tests. Parametric tests are more powerful than non-parametric tests if their assumptions are met, but non-parametric tests can be used when the data does not meet parametric assumptions, such as with nominal scale data.
SPSS is a widely used statistical analysis program. It was originally developed in 1968 by Norman Nie and C. Hadlai Hull to analyze social science data. SPSS was later acquired by IBM in 2009. The main windows in SPSS are the Data Editor, Output Viewer, Chart Editor, and Syntax Editor. It has menus for File, Edit, View, Data, Transform, Analyze, Graphs, Utilities, and Help. SPSS allows users to manage data files, transform variables, summarize data graphically and numerically, and perform inferential statistics.
The Tobit model is a statistical model used to analyze censored or limited dependent variables. It accounts for data where the dependent variable is left-censored, only observing values above a cutoff. The model estimates the relationship between independent variables and an underlying latent dependent variable that is observed only when it exceeds zero. Tobit regression can be used when the dependent variable is limited, such as wages being limited by minimum wage, or donation amounts. It is estimated using maximum likelihood to account for censored observations.
This document provides information on conducting a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) using SPSS. It uses an example where a farmer tests the effect of different fertilizers (biological, chemical, none) on the weight of parsley plants. The summary is:
The document walks through running a one-way ANOVA in SPSS to analyze the weights of parsley plants that received different fertilizers. The ANOVA results show that fertilizer significantly affects weight. A post hoc test finds a significant difference between plants that received chemical fertilizer versus no fertilizer. The document also briefly describes two-way ANOVAs for analyzing the effects of two independent variables.

Both examples find the null hypothesis of no effect can be rejected, indicating the treatments were effective.
This document discusses the z-test, a parametric test used to compare two population means or a sample mean to a hypothesized population mean. It can be used for a one-sample or two-sample test. For a one-sample test, the z-score compares the sample mean to the hypothesized population mean. For a two-sample test, the z-score compares the means of two independent samples and determines if there is a significant difference between the population means based on the sample means. The document provides the equations for calculating the z-score in each case and identifies the significance levels used to determine if the difference is statistically significant. An example compares the mean test scores of two random samples of students using a two-
This document discusses measures of central tendency and dispersion in statistics. It defines central tendency as a single value that describes the center of a data distribution. Common measures include the mean, median, and mode. The mean is the average value calculated by adding all values and dividing by the total number. The median is the middle value when data is ordered from lowest to highest. The mode is the most frequent value. Dispersion measures the spread of data and includes the range, mean deviation, standard deviation, and variance. Standard deviation summarizes how far data points are from the mean. Variance is the square of the standard deviation. The document provides examples of calculating these measures and their characteristics and uses.
Descriptive statistics are used to summarize and describe characteristics of a data set. They include measures of central tendency like the mean, median, and mode as well as measures of variability such as range, standard deviation, and variance.

Computing Descriptive Statistics
Computing Descriptive Statistics: “Ever Wonder What Secrets They Hold?” The Mean, Mode, Median, Variability, and Standard Deviation
Introduction
Before gaining an appreciation for the value of descriptive statistics in behavioral science environments, one must first become familiar with the type of measurement data these statistical processes use. Knowing the types of measurement data will aid the decision maker in making sure that the chosen statistical method will, indeed, produce the results needed and expected. Using the wrong type of measurement data with a selected statistic tool will result in erroneous results, errors, and ineffective decision making.
Measurement, or numerical, data is divided into four types: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. The businessperson, because of administering questionnaires, taking polls, conducting surveys, administering tests, and counting events, products, and a host of other numerical data instrumentations, garners all the numerical values associated with these four types.
Nominal Data
Nominal data is the simplest of all four forms of numerical data. The mathematical values are assigned to that which is being assessed simply by arbitrarily assigning numerical values to a characteristic, event, occasion, or phenomenon. For example, a human resources (HR) manager wishes to determine the differences in leadership styles between managers who are at different geographical regions. To compute the differences, the HR manager might assign the following values: 1 = West, 2 = Midwest, 3 = North, and so on. The numerical values are not descriptive of anything other than the location and are not indicative of quantity.
Ordinal Data
In terms of ordinal data, the variables contained within the measurement instrument are ranked in order of importance. For example, a product-marketing specialist might be interested in how a consumer group would respond to a new product. To garner the information, the questionnaire administered to a group of consumers would include questions scaled as follows: 1 = Not Likely, 2 = Somewhat Likely, 3 = Likely, 4 = More Than Likely, and 5 = Most Likely. This creates a scale rank order from Not Likely to Most Likely with respect to acceptance of the new consumer product.
Interval Data
Oftentimes, in addition to being ordered, the differences (or intervals) between two adjacent measurement values on a measurement scale are identical. For example, the di ...
This document discusses measures of central tendency, which are statistical values that describe the center of a data set. The three main measures are the mean, median, and mode.
The mean is the average value found by dividing the total of all values by the number of values. The median is the middle value when data is arranged from lowest to highest. The mode is the most frequently occurring value.
While the mean is most commonly used, the median and mode are better in some situations, such as when outliers are present or data is categorical. The geometric mean measures rate of change over time. Choosing the appropriate measure depends on the data type and distribution.
This document provides an overview and objectives for Chapter 3 of the textbook "Statistical Techniques in Business and Economics" by Lind. The chapter covers describing data through numerical measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and dispersion (range, variance, standard deviation). It includes examples of computing various measures like the weighted mean, median, mode, and interpreting their relationships. The document also lists learning activities for students such as reading the chapter, watching video lectures, completing practice problems in the book, and participating in an online discussion forum.

This document discusses different measures of central tendency including the average, median, and mode. It provides definitions and examples of how to calculate each measure. The arithmetic mean, also called the average, is the sum of all values divided by the total number of values. The median is the middle value when values are arranged from lowest to highest. The mode is the value that occurs most frequently. The document compares the merits and limitations of each measure and how they can be impacted by outliers or skewed data distributions.
This document discusses various measures used to describe data, including measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of variation (range, variance, standard deviation). It provides definitions and formulas for calculating different statistical measures, along with their properties and appropriate uses. Measures of central tendency indicate the central or typical value of a data set, while measures of variation describe how spread out or dispersed the data are around the central value. The document compares absolute and relative measures and discusses specific measures like range, quartile deviation, average deviation, and standard deviation.
The document provides an overview of quantitative data analysis and statistical methods. It discusses descriptive statistics like mean, median and mode that are used to summarize and organize data. It also covers inferential statistics that allow inferences to be made from a sample to the overall population. Common inferential tests mentioned include t-tests, ANOVA, correlation. The document stresses that statistics alone have no meaning and proper interpretation is important to answer research questions. It also promotes the use of SPSS software to efficiently conduct statistical analyses.
This document discusses descriptive statistics and how they are used to summarize and describe data. Descriptive statistics allow researchers to analyze patterns in data but cannot be used to draw conclusions beyond the sample. Key aspects covered include measures of central tendency like mean, median, and mode to describe the central position in a data set. Measures of dispersion like range and standard deviation are also discussed to quantify how spread out the data values are. Frequency distributions are described as a way to summarize the frequencies of individual data values or ranges.

The mean is the most common measure of central tendency and is the average value, while the median is the middle value and mode is the most frequent value. Standard deviation and variance are measures of how spread out the values are around the mean.
This document provides an overview of measures of central tendency including the mean, median, and mode. It defines each measure and explains how to calculate them. The mean is the average value obtained by dividing the total of all values by the number of values. The median is the middle value when values are arranged in order. The mode is the most frequent value in the data set. The document also discusses how the appropriate measure depends on the type of scale of the data, with the mode used for nominal data, the median for ordinal data, and the mean for interval data.

The document discusses various measures of variability that can be used to describe the spread or dispersion of data, including the range, interquartile range, mean absolute deviation, variance, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation. It also covers how to calculate and interpret these measures of variability for both ungrouped and grouped data. Various other concepts are introduced such as the empirical rule, z-scores, skewness, the 5-number summary, and how to construct and interpret a box-and-whisker plot.
The document discusses descriptive statistical analysis techniques used in marketing research such as measures of central tendency, variability, and hypothesis testing. It explains how to build a frequency distribution table to summarize sample data using metrics like mean, median, mode, percentage, and range. Examples are provided to demonstrate how to calculate these statistics and test hypotheses about population parameters.

Lecture. Introduction to Statistics (Measures of Dispersion).pptxNabeelAli89
1) The document discusses various measures of dispersion used to quantify how spread out or varied a set of data values are from the average.
2) There are two types of dispersion - absolute dispersion measures how varied data values are in the original units, while relative dispersion compares variability between datasets with different units.
3) Common measures of absolute dispersion include range, variance, and standard deviation. Range is the difference between highest and lowest values, while variance and standard deviation take into account how far all values are from the mean.

L'indice de performance des ports à conteneurs de l'année 2023SPATPortToamasina
Une évaluation comparable de la performance basée sur le temps d'escale des navires
L'objectif de l'ICPP est d'identifier les domaines d'amélioration qui peuvent en fin de compte bénéficier à toutes les parties concernées, des compagnies maritimes aux gouvernements nationaux en passant par les consommateurs. Il est conçu pour servir de point de référence aux principaux acteurs de l'économie mondiale, notamment les autorités et les opérateurs portuaires, les gouvernements nationaux, les organisations supranationales, les agences de développement, les divers intérêts maritimes et d'autres acteurs publics et privés du commerce, de la logistique et des services de la chaîne d'approvisionnement.
Le développement de l'ICPP repose sur le temps total passé par les porte-conteneurs dans les ports, de la manière expliquée dans les sections suivantes du rapport, et comme dans les itérations précédentes de l'ICPP. Cette quatrième itération utilise des données pour l'année civile complète 2023. Elle poursuit le changement introduit l'année dernière en n'incluant que les ports qui ont eu un minimum de 24 escales valides au cours de la période de 12 mois de l'étude. Le nombre de ports inclus dans l'ICPP 2023 est de 405.
Comme dans les éditions précédentes de l'ICPP, la production du classement fait appel à deux approches méthodologiques différentes : une approche administrative, ou technique, une méthodologie pragmatique reflétant les connaissances et le jugement des experts ; et une approche statistique, utilisant l'analyse factorielle (AF), ou plus précisément la factorisation matricielle. L'utilisation de ces deux approches vise à garantir que le classement des performances des ports à conteneurs reflète le plus fidèlement possible les performances réelles des ports, tout en étant statistiquement robuste.
