Measures of Variation Key terms • bias(Uncountable) Inclination towards something; predisposition, partiality, prejudice, preference, predilection. • coefficient of variationThe ratio of the standard deviation to the mean. • data mininga technique for searching large-scale databases for patterns; used mainly to find previously unknown correlations between variables that may be commercially useful • descriptive statisticsA branch of mathematics dealing with summarization and description of collections of data sets, including the concepts of arithmetic mean, median, and mode. • deviationFor interval variables and ratio variables, a measure of difference between the observed value and the mean. • disparitythe state of being unequal; difference • dispersionthe degree of scatter of data • exploratory data analysisan approach to analyzing data sets that is concerned with uncovering underlying structure, extracting important variables, detecting outliers and anomalies, testing underlying assumptions, and developing models • mean squared errorA measure of the average of the squares of the "errors"; the amount by which the value implied by the estimator differs from the quantity to be estimated. • normal distributionA family of continuous probability distributions such that the probability density function is the normal (or Gaussian) function. • null hypothesisA hypothesis set up to be refuted in order to support an alternative hypothesis; presumed true until statistical evidence in the form of a hypothesis test indicates otherwise. • outliera value in a statistical sample which does not fit a pattern that describes most other data points; specifically, a value that lies 1.5 IQR beyond the upper or lower quartile Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

Measures of Variation • qualitative datadata centered around descriptions or distinctions based on some quality or characteristic rather than on some quantity or measured value • quartileany of the three points that divide an ordered distribution into four parts, each containing a quarter of the population • RA free software programming language and a software environment for statistical computing and graphics. • rangethe length of the smallest interval which contains all the data in a sample; the difference between the largest and smallest observations in the sample • residualThe difference between the observed value and the estimated function value. • skewedBiased or distorted (pertaining to statistics or information). • spreadA numerical difference. • standard deviationa measure of how spread out data values are around the mean, defined as the square root of the variance • standard deviationa measure of how spread out data values are around the mean, defined as the square root of the variance • TI-83A calculator manufactured by Texas Instruments that is one of the most popular graphing calculators for statistical purposes. • variation ratiothe proportion of cases not in the mode • vectorin statistics, a set of real-valued random variables that may be correlated Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

Measures of Variation Standard Deviation Diagram Dark blue is one standard deviation on either side of the mean. For the normal distribution, this accounts for 68.27 percent of the set; while two standard deviations from the mean (medium and dark blue) account for 95.45 percent; three standard deviations (light, medium, and dark blue) account for 99.73 percent; and four standard deviations account for 99.994 percent.
