TYPES OF STATISTICS

To Organize, Display, Describe data using

tables, graphs

Use information from descriptive statistics to make decisions or predictions about a population

Types Of Variables

CAUSE (Factor)

(Independent Variable) EFFECT (Response)

( Dependent Variable)

According to causal relationship

VariablesThe characteristics (quantities or qualities) that the individuals of a population possess.

TYPES OF VARIABLESA. Quantitative Variables

Can be measured numerically (numeric variable)

Arithmetic operations (+, -, x, /)

Can be applied Are measured in a unit that can be subdivided infinitely

(Continuous Variables)

Ex: Age (in years)

TYPES OF VARIABLES

• Scores are labels that Cannot be ranked

A.1. Nominal Level Variables

A. Qualitative Variables

Gender: male , Female

Race: White , Black

Religion: Muslim, Christian

Scores are labels that Cannot be treated as numbers

Measured in a unit that can not be subdivided infinitely (Discrete Variables)

TYPES OF VARIABLES

• Scores are non-numerical forms and can be ranked

A.2. Ordinal Level VariablesA. Qualitative Variables

Grades: Good, Very good, Excellent

Medals: Gold, Silver, Bronze

Descriptive Statistics

Variance It is the arithmetic mean of the squared deviations from the mean of a

statistical distribution.

Squared Deviation

Sample Size

Standard deviation

It is the square rootof the variance (). 

Standard Error (S.E.) of Mean

It is the standard deviation of the sample mean divided by square root of sample size.

o It is used to present all types of variables.

PRESENTATION OF DATA

Pie Chartso A pie chart can be used to represent all types of variables, but is more commonly

used for categorical variables.

o The data is represented in a circle and the angle of each circular sector is proportional to the corresponding absolute frequency.

HISTOGRAMSo A histogram is a graphic representation of a variable in the

shape of bars (rectangles).o They are used for all types of variables with a large quantity of

data that is grouped into classes.o The base width of the bars (rectangles) are proportional to the

class widths and the height is the absolute frequency of each interval.

o The surface area of every bar is proportional to the frequency of the represented values.
