Statistics Meena Ganapathy
Meaning • Statistics • Latin-status • Italian statistica • Germany Statistik • French statistique • Statistic – Singular- One value associated e.g., wt of one person • Plural e.g., wt of more values • Statistics as singular branch of science- It is the combination of logic & Mathematics.
Diff. branches of statistics • 1) Medical Statistics • 2) Health statistics • 3) Vital statistics • 4) Biostatistics
Statistics • It is the branch of Science which deals with technique of collection, compilation, presentation, analysis of data & logical interpretation of the result.
Use of statistics • 1.To collect the data in best possible way. • 2.To describe the characteristics of a group or a situation. • 3.To analyze data & to draw conclusion from such analysis.
Definition • Variable :- A characteristic that take different values in different person places or things. • E.g. Ht, Wt, B.P., Age;’ • It is denoted by capital x = x • E.g., x: ht • X1, x2, x3, x4…….xn • N= total numbers of observation
Attribute • A qualitative characteristic like age, sex, nationality is called as attribute
Constant • The characteristic which does not change its value or nature is considered as constant • E.g. blood group, sex
Observation • An event or its measurement such as BP., Is as event & 120/80 mm of Hg. Is as measurement
Observation unit • The source that gives observation such as object person etc.
Data • A set of values recorded on one or more observational unit is called as data. It gives numerical observation about observational unit. • e.g., HT, WT, Age. • = equal to • < Less than • > greater than • =< less that & equal to • => greater than & equal to • ≠ not equal to • ∑ Summation
Short forms • A.M.- arithmetic mean • H.M.- harmonic mean • G.M.- Geometric mean • C.V.- Coefficient of variation • S.E.- Standard error • S.D.- Standard deviation • D.F.- Degree of freedom • C.I.- Confidence interval
E :- Expected value of cell of contingency table • O :- Observed value of cell of contingency table. • N :- Population size • N :- Sample size • L :- Level of significance (I.O.S) • Ho :- Null hypothesis • H1 Alternative hypothesis
Types of data • Qualitative and quantitative • Discrete and continuous • Primary and Secondary • Grouped and ungrouped
Qualitative & quantitative data • Qualitative data :-It is also called as enumeration data. It represents particular quality or attribute there is no notion of measurement. It can be classified by counting individuals having the same characteristics. • E.g. Sex, religion, blood group
Quantitative data • It is also called as measurement data. This can be measures by counting the characteristics in the variable. • E.g. Ht, Wt, BP, HB
Discrete & Continuous • Discrete :- Here we always get a whole number. • E.g. no of people dying in road accidents no. of vials of polio vaccine. • Continuous :- In this data there is possibility of getting fraction like 1.2, 2.1,3.81. i.e. it takes all possible values in a certain range. • E.g., Ht, WT, temp
Primary and Secondary • Primary :- The data obtained directly from a individual gives precise information. i.e., when the data is collected originally by the investigator for the first time is called primary data. • E.g. to find no. of alcoholic person in Karvenagar area. By the investigator. • Secondary :- When the data collected by somebody or other person is used the data is called secondary data. • E.g. Census hospital records
Ungrouped and Grouped • Ungrouped :- When the data is presented in raw way , it is called as ungrouped data • E.g. Marks of 5 students • 20,30,25,20,30 • Grouped :- When the ungrouped data is arranged according to groups, then it is called as grouped data. • E.g. Marks Students • 20 2 • 30 2 • 25 1
Methods of data Collection • Observation Visual • Instrument • Instrument Properties • Reliability Validity • Interviews & self administered questionnaires • Use of documentary sources (secondary data)
Classification of data • Definition :- The process of arranging data in to groups or classes according to similar characteristics is called as classification & the group so formed are called as class limits 1 class interval.
Objectives of classification of data • 1.It condense the data • 2.It omits unnecessary information. • 3.It reveals the important features of the data. • 4.It facilities comparison with other data • 5.It enables further analysis like competition of average, dispersion (Variables ) data.
Frequency • A) Frequency • Definition :- No. of times variable value is repeated is called as frequency. • B) Cumulative class frequency • Definition :-Cumulative frequency is formed by adding frequency of each class to the total frequency at the previous class. It indicates the no. of observations < upper limit of the class limit.
Representatives Symbol • Sample Population • 1. Mean X bar M • 2. SD $ o 2 • 3. Variance $2 o2 • 4. Proportion p P • 5. Complement of • proportion 2 Q
Data presentation Meena Ganapathy
Methods of presentation of data • Tabulation. • Charts and diagrams.
Important points in making a table • Table No. :- If many tables are present • Title :- Should be small • Head note :- Whatever is not covered in title can be written in head note. • E.g. expressing units • Caption :- column heading • According to characteristics • Stub :- raw • Subheading • Body :- content • Foot note:- Short forms or • Source note :- resource it is important because it shows reliability of table.
Rules and guidelines fortabular presentation • 1. Table must be numbered • 2. Brief & self explanatory title must be given to each table. • 3.The headings of columns & rows must be clear, sufficient, concise & fully defined.
4. The data must be presented according to size or importance chronologically alphabetically or geographically. • 5. Table should not be large. • 6. Foot note should be given whenever necessary providing additional information sources or explanatory notes.
Types of table • 1.One way table/simple table • 2.Two way table • 3.Complex table
1.One way table/ Simple table • When there is only one characteristics is described in a table then it is called as simple table
Two way table • In this table data is classified according to two characteristics it given information about two interrelated characteristics.
Frequency distribution table qualitative data distribution of types of anemia • According to sex
Complex table • Information collected regarding 3 or 4 characteristics & tabulated according to these characteristics such a type of table is called as complex table.
Advantages of a Graphs & Diagrams • 1. Information is presented in condensed form • 2. Facts are presented in more effective & impressive manner as compared to tables • Easy to understand for a layman. • Create effect which last for longer time • Facilitate the comparison. • Help in revealing patterns.
Disadvantages • Approximate results instead of accuracy • Gives only a general idea • Not sufficient for statistical analysis
Types of diagrams for qualitative data • Bar: Simple, Multiple or complex, Component & Proportional • Pie or Sector • Pictograms • Shaded Map / Contour / Spot Maps
Bar Diagrams • It is used to compare variables possessed by one or more groups.
Simple Bar Diagram • Here only one variable is presented • Bars are at uniform distance from one another • It can be drawn vertically or horizontally • Each should have title & source note
Pie or Sector diagrams • When the data is presented as sum of different components for one qualitative characteristics we use pie diagrams.
Pictograms • This diagrams are useful for lay people. E.g., Village map indicating temple, trees etc…
Spot Maps • In this diagram a map of an area with location of each case of an illness, death etc… are identified with spots or dot or any other symbol.
Types of diagrams for quantitative data • Histograms • Frequency polygon • Frequency curve • Cumulative frequency curve • Line graph • Scatter diagram • Population Pyramid • Growth chart
Histograms • It is the graphical representation of frequency distribution. It is a series of adjacent rectangles erected on bars • Areas of these bars denote the frequency of respective class interval. • X axis base of bars shows class width of class interval • Y axis frequency / No of observations
Frequency Polygon • It is representation of categories of continuous & ordered data similar to histogram. It can be drawn in two ways: Using histograms, with out using histograms. • Uses: it is used when sets of data are illustrated on the same diagram such as temperature, & pulse, birth & death rate etc…
