Intro to Statistics Types of Data Research Processes
100
What are parametric statistics?
These types of statistics are used to make valid generalizations or inferences about population parameters.
100
What is the level of measurement?
This determines which summary statistics, graphs, and analysis are possible and sensible.
100
What is the first step in the Process of Data Analysis?
The first step in this process is having a hypothesis about a population of interest.
200
What is a t-test?
The parametric statistic that allows you to look at the difference between group means.
200
What is nominal data?
Also known as categorical or qualitative, this level of measurement is the most basic and includes descriptions or labels. Sex is an example.
200
What are Descriptive Statistics?
The statistics that help us understand the characteristics of the sample we collected. For example, the mean age of your sample.
300
What are a non-parametric statistics?
These statistics makes no assumptions that the data or population have any characteristic structure.
300
What are the intervals between the values in the scale?
In ordinal data, although there is a meaningful order to the data, THIS may not be equal. For example, first versus second versus third place in a race.
300
What is the process of making inferences ?
The generation of p-values and confidence intervals are generally necessary in this process.
400
What is the assumption of homogeneity of variance (also accepted: assumptions of normality, linearity, or independence)?
A non-parametric statistical approach is advised when this has been violated.
400
What are the mean, median, and standard deviation?
The most precise level of measurement, interval/ratio, also known as scale, quantitative, and parametric, can be used to calculate which common basic statistics?
400
What is making inferences based on p-value?
Statistics, research design, other research results, and clinical knowledge must all be considered when doing this.
500
What is an approximation?
Everything we do in statistics is this.
500
What is a column chart (in logical order)?
This is the type of graphical representation that should be used to display the results of a satisfaction survey, which include a Likert scale from very unsatisfied to very satisfied.
500
What is the Scientific Process?
Observation, pattern, question, hypothesis, experiment and conclusion are the six steps involved in this process.
