Univariate Data Chapters 1-6
UNIVARIATE DATA • Categorical Data • Percentages • Frequency Distribution, Contingency Table, • Relative Frequency Bar Charts (Always for comparison, • Pie Charts, Segmented Bar Charts. • Quantitative Data • Dot Plots, Stem Plots, Box Plots, Histograms, • Cumulative Frequency Histogram
Another Graphical Display for Categorical Data is a Pie Chart
Contingency Tables and Segmented Bar Charts Relative Frequency Table Frequency Table
Quantitative Data Distribution: Center, Shape, Spread, Outliers Measures of Center: Mean, Median, Mode Measures of Spread: Range, IQR, Standard Deviation Mean goes with Standard Deviation, Median goes with IQR Use mean and standard deviation when distribution is unimodal and symmetric Outlier Rule = 1.5 x IQR Addition/Subtraction changes only measures of Center Multiplication/Division changes measures of Center and Spread
Describing Shapes of Distributions • Remember! • If distribution is unimodal and symmetric, the mean end median will be approximately • the same • If the distribution is skewed right, the mean will be to the right of the median • If the distribution is skewed left, the mean will be to the left of the median • Skewed distributions tend to have more variation than symmetric distributions
