Question
Answer
show statistics  
🗑
show descriptive statistics  
🗑
show inferential statistics  
🗑
show data  
🗑
values that are numeric   show
🗑
show qualitative data  
🗑
show discrete variables  
🗑
show continuous variables  
🗑
consists of all subjects that are being studied   show
🗑
subset of a population   show
🗑
sample of an entire population   show
🗑
characteristic or a fact of a population   show
🗑
a characteristic or a fact of a sample   show
🗑
an organization of raw data into tabular form using classes (or intervals) and frequencies   show
🗑
number of times the value occurs in the data set   show
🗑
represent data that can be placed in specific categories, such as gender, hair color, or religious affiliation   show
🗑
simply lists the data values with the corresponding number of times or frequency count with which each value occurs   show
🗑
obtained by dividing the frequency for that class by the total number of observations   show
🗑
show cumulative frequency  
🗑
sum of the relative frequencies for all values at or below the given value   show
🗑
show grouped frequency distribution  
🗑
a plot that displays a dot for each value in a data set along a number line   show
🗑
show bar chart/ bar gram  
🗑
show histogram  
🗑
a graph that displays the data using lines to connect points plotted for the frequencies. The frequencies represent the heights of the vertical bars in the histogr   show
🗑
show stem and leaf plot  
🗑
show time-series graph  
🗑
show pie chart  
🗑
show pareto chart  
🗑
the average of the set of values   show
🗑
show median  
🗑
show mode  
🗑
show positively skewed  
🗑
most of the data values fall to the right of the mean, and the tail is to the left. Mean is to the left of the median, and the mode is to the right.   show
🗑
show symmetrical distribution  
🗑
show range  
🗑
the difference between the first and third quartiles. It kicks out the extremes-a nice feature for highly skewed data.   show
🗑
show mean deviation  
🗑
show variance  
🗑
show standard deviation  
🗑
show coefficient of variation  
🗑
about 68% of the data is within 1SD of the mean, about 95% of the data is within 2SD of the mean, about 99.7% of the data is within 3SD of the mean   show
🗑
the mean is less than the median is less than the mode   show
🗑
show right-skewed distribution  
🗑
Used to compare two or more data sets; tells us how many SD a specific value is above or below the mean value of the data set   show
🗑
show percentiles  
🗑
show box plot  
🗑
show scatter plot  
🗑
show correlation  
🗑
show nominal  
🗑
show ordered data  
🗑
interval   show
🗑
show uniformly spaced values with a natural zero  
🗑
show ideal method (all members of a population have an equally likely chance to be represented in the sample--no intentional bias).  
🗑
show gather data in the easiest way possible  
🗑
show divide the population into clusters and randomly select from the clusters  
🗑
stratified sample   show
🗑
systematic samples   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
