Educational statistics
1. 1: What is Statistics? Statistics: The science of collecting, describing, and interpreting data. Two areas of statistics: Descriptive Statistics: collection, presentation, and description of sample data. Inferential Statistics: making decisions and drawing conclusions about populations.
Example: A college principal is interested in learning about the average of faculty. Identify the basic terms in this situation. The population is the age of all faculty members at the college. A sample is any subset of that population. For example, we might select 10 faculty members and determine their age. The variable is the “age” of each faculty member. One data would be the age of a specific faculty member. The data would be the set of values in the sample. The experiment would be the method used to select the ages forming the sample and determining the actual age of each faculty member in the sample. The parameter of interest is the “average” age of all faculty at the college. The statistic is the “average” age for all faculty in the sample.

Substituting the values in the formula: � Median = L + [N/2 –Cumfb] x i fw L = exact lower limit of the C I in which the median lies (19. 5) Cumfb= cumulative frequency below the C I containing Median (21) fw = frequency within the C I containing the Median (8) i = size of the C I (5)
�Median = 19. 5 + [ 50/2 – 21 ] x 5 � � 8 = 19. 5 + [ 25 – 21 ] x 5 8 = 19. 5 + 4 x 5 8 = 19. 5 + 2. 5 = 22
Mode �The Mode refers to the number that occurs the most frequently. �It’s easy to remember… the first two numbers are the same! MOde and MOst Frequently!
Calculation of mode �Mode = 3 Median - 2 Mean � from the distribution given above : �Median = 22 and Mean = 22. 40 �Substituting the values given above �Mode = 3 x 22 – 2 x 22. 40 � = 21. 2

Standard Deviation shows the variation in data. If the data is close together, the standard deviation will be small. If the data is spread out, the standard deviation will be large. Standard Deviation is often denoted by the lowercase Greek letter sigma, .

Quartile deviation �The semi-inter quartile range which is also known as quartile deviation can be defined as a half of the difference between the 75 th percentile and the 25 th percentile � Q = Q₃ - Q₁ 2 OR P₇₅ 2 P₂₅

Substituting the values in the formula � Q₁ = L +(N/4 – Cumfb) x i fq � Q₃ = L +(3 N/4 – Cumfb) x i fq L= the exact lower limit of the interval in which the quartile falls i = size of the class interval Cumfb = cumulative frequency below the C I which contains the quartile Fq = the frequency in the C I containing quartile
Calculation of Q₁ �Q₁ = L +(N/4 – Cumfb) x i fq L = 9. 5, Cumfb=9, fq=5, i=5, N=50 �Q₁ = 9. 5 +(50/4 – 9) x 5 5 �Q₁ = 9. 5 + 3. 5 = 13. 0
Calculation of Q₃ �Q₃ = L +(3 N/4 – Cumfb) x i fq L = 29. 5, Cumfb=37, fq=6, i=5, N=50 �Q₃ = 29. 5 +(3 x 50/4 – 37) x 5 6 Q₃ = 29. 5 + 0. 42 = 29. 92
Calculation of Q � Q = Q₃ - Q₁ 2 Q = 29. 92 – 13. 00 = 16. 92 = 8. 46 2 2
Coefficient of correlation �A Coefficient of correlation is a single number that tells us to what extent two variables or things are related and to what extent variations in one variable go with variations in the other
