- 5. The Mean (Arithmetic Average) It is the Arithmetic Average of data values: The Most Common Measure of Central Tendency Affected by Extreme Values (Outliers) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 14 Mean = 5 Mean = 6 Sample Mean
- 6. The Median 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 14 Median = 5 Median = 5 Important Measure of Central Tendency In an ordered array, the median is the “ middle” number. If n is odd , the median is the middle number . If n is even , the median is the average of the 2 middle numbers. Not Affected by Extreme Values
- 7. The Mode 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Mode = 9 A Measure of Central Tendency Value that Occurs Most Often Not Affected by Extreme Values There May Not be a Mode There May be Several Modes Used for Either Numerical or Categorical Data 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 No Mode
- 8. Midrange A Measure of Central Tendency Average of Smallest and Largest Observation: Affected by Extreme Value Midrange 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Midrange = 5 Midrange = 5
- 9. Quartiles Not a Measure of Central Tendency Split Ordered Data into 4 Quarters Position of i-th Quartile: position of point 25% 25% 25% 25% Q 1 Q 2 Q 3 Q i(n+1) i 4 Data in Ordered Array: 11 12 13 16 16 17 18 21 22 Position of Q 1 = 2.50 Q 1 =12.5 = 1•(9 + 1) 4
- 10. Midhinge A Measure of Central Tendency The Middle point of 1st and 3rd Quarters Not Affected by Extreme Values Midhinge = Data in Ordered Array: 11 12 13 16 16 17 18 21 22 Midhinge =
- 11. Summary Measures Central Tendency Mean Median Mode Midrange Quartile Midhinge Summary Measures Variation Variance Standard Deviation Coefficient of Variation Range
- 12. Measures of Variation Variation Variance Standard Deviation Coefficient of Variation Population Variance Sample Variance Population Standard Deviation Sample Standard Deviation Range Interquartile Range
- 13. Measure of Variation Difference Between Largest & Smallest Observations: Range = Ignores How Data Are Distributed: The Range 7 8 9 10 11 12 Range = 12 - 7 = 5 7 8 9 10 11 12 Range = 12 - 7 = 5
- 14. Measure of Variation Also Known as Midspread: Spread in the Middle 50% Difference Between Third & First Quartiles: Interquartile Range = Not Affected by Extreme Values Interquartile Range Data in Ordered Array: 11 12 13 16 16 17 17 18 21 = 17.5 - 12.5 = 5
- 15. Important Measure of Variation Shows Variation About the Mean: For the Population: For the Sample: Variance For the Population : use N in the denominator. For the Sample : use n - 1 in the denominator.
- 16. Most Important Measure of Variation Shows Variation About the Mean: For the Population: For the Sample: Standard Deviation For the Population: use N in the denominator. For the Sample : use n - 1 in the denominator .
- 17. Sample Standard Deviation For the Sample : use n - 1 in the denominator. Data: 10 12 14 15 17 18 18 24 s = n = 8 Mean =16 = 4.2426 s
- 18. Comparing Standard Deviations s = = 4.2426 = 3.9686 Value for the Standard Deviation is larger for data considered as a Sample . Data : 10 12 14 15 17 18 18 24 N= 8 Mean =16
- 19. Comparing Standard Deviations Mean = 15.5 s = 3.338 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Data B Data A Mean = 15.5 s = .9258 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 Mean = 15.5 s = 4.57 Data C
- 20. Coefficient of Variation Measure of Relative Variation Always a % Shows Variation Relative to Mean Used to Compare 2 or More Groups Formula ( for Sample):
- 21. Comparing Coefficient of Variation Stock A: Average Price last year = $50 Standard Deviation = $5 Stock B: Average Price last year = $100 Standard Deviation = $5 Coefficient of Variation: Stock A: CV = 10% Stock B: CV = 5%
- 22. Shape Describes How Data Are Distributed Measures of Shape: Symmetric or skewed Right-Skewed Left-Skewed Symmetric Mean = Median = Mode Mean Median Mode Median Mean Mode
- 23. Box-and-Whisker Plot Graphical Display of Data Using 50%-Number Summary Median 4 6 8 10 12 Q 3 Q 1 X largest X smallest
