BASIC DEFINITIONS
STATISTICS: The study of methods for collecting, organizing, and analyzing data
Descriptive Statistics: Procedures used to organize and present data in a convenient and communicable form
Inferential Statistics: Procedures employed to arrive at broader conclusions or inferences about populations on the basis of samples
POPULATION: The complete set of actual or potential elements about which inferences are made
SAMPLE: A subset of the population selected using some sampling method
Sampling methods
Cluster sample: A population is divided into groups called clusters; some clusters are randomly selected, and every member in them is observed
Stratified sample: The population is divided into strata, and a fixed number of elements of each stratum are selected for the sample
Simple random sample:A sample selected so that each possible sample of the same size has an equal probability of being selected; used for most elementary inference
VARIABLE: An attribute of elements of a population or sample that can be measured; Ex: height, weight, IQ, hair color and pulse rate are some of the many variables that can be measured for people
DATA: Values of variables that have been observed
Types of data
Qualitative (or categorical
) data are descriptive but not numeric; Ex: your gender, your birthplace, the color of an automobile
Quantitative data take numeric values
Discrete data take counting numbers (0, 1, 2, …) as values, usually representing things that can be counted; Ex: the number of fleas on a dog, the number of times a professor is late in a semester
Continuous data can take a range of numeric values, not just counting numbers; Ex: the height of a child, the weight of a bag of beans, the amount of time a professor is late
Levels of measurement
Qualitative data can be measured at the:
Nominal level:Values are just names, without any order; Ex: color of a car, major in college
Ordinal level: Values have some natural order; ex: high school class (freshman/sophomore/ junior/senior), military rank
Quantitative data can be measured at the:
Interval level: Numeric data with no natural zero point; intervals (differences) are meaningful, but ratios are not; Ex: temperature in Fahrenheit degrees; 80°F is 20°F
