- 7. Name and define and discriminate between the two major branches of statistics (descriptive and inferential).Define major terms and discriminate between a sample and a population.Identify examples of the four levels of data and describe the characteristics of each data type.Week 3 QuizNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission.

- 8. You should know the difference between the methods of collecting data. Sampling (collecting data from part of a population)
- 9. Census (collecting data from the entire population – be careful because you can often do this with small groups such as number of vehicles members of the class own, average salary of the class, number of children per house on your street, etc.)
- 10. Simulation (Using probabilities to get your results, for example the probability of getting 3 heads in 5 flips of a coin, number of boys out of 5 children, etc.)
- 11. Perform an experiment ( often uses things like a control group like researchers giving one group the real medication and the other something that has no effect)Week 3 QuizNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission. B Heard
- 12. You should be able to identify levels of measurementNominal (just a name as in colors, types, number on a jersey, etc.)Ordinal (Categories that can be ranked meaningfully)Interval (Distance between values has meaning but there is no “absolute zero” like in the Fahrenheit temperature scale”Ratio (has an “absolute zero” like the number of children you have, etc. always ask yourself is the lowest possible value zero or none? If so it is probably ratio, if it can go below zero like distance above or below sea level it would be Interval)Week 3 QuizChart taken from http://www.socialresearchmethods.net/kb/measlevl.phpNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission.

- 13. Know the difference between inferential and descriptive statistics.Descriptive statistics are used to reveal patterns through the analysis of numeric data (collect non-numeric data and then analyze).
- 14. Descriptive statistics, not surprisingly, "describe" data that have been collected. Commonly used descriptive statistics include frequency counts, ranges (high and low scores or values), means, modes, median scores, and standard deviations.
- 15. Inferential statistics are used to draw conclusions and make predictions based on the analysis of numeric data.
- 16. Inferential statistics are used to draw conclusions and make predictions based on the descriptions of data.Week 3 QuizNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission. B Heard

- 19. Know the difference in Sampling TechniquesRandom (simply picking where every member has an equal chance – drawing out of a bag – generating random numbers)
- 20. Stratified (dividing your population into strata and then picking a certain number from each strata)
- 21. Systematic (picking every nth one – for example testing every 20th unit off of an assembly line)
- 22. Convenience (just asking who is available or who is listening, not making an effort to get a true sample)
- 23. Cluster (dividing the population into clusters and sampling everyone in one or two of the clusters) Understand the relationship between a Sample and a PopulationA sample is a subset of a population
- 24. Sampling is more convenient and easier
- 25. Statistics come from Samples
- 26. Parameters come from the population (key word “all”)Week 3 QuizNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission. B Heard

- 37. As an instructor, I have been collecting data to see if I can model a student’s performance on a standardized entrance exam. I determined that the multiple regression equation y = -250+ 16a + 30b, where a is a student’s grade on a quiz, b is the student’s rank on a class list, gives y, the score on a standardized entrance exam. Based on this equation, what would the standardized entrance exam score for a student who makes a 7 on the quiz and had a ranking of 10 be?Week 3 QuizNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission.

- 38. y = -250+ 16a + 30bSubstitute 7 for “a” and 10 for “b”y = -250+ 16*7 + 30*10y = -250 + 112 + 300y = -250 + 412y = 162Week 3 QuizNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission. B Heard

- 40. In my previous example, I determined that the r^2 value (r squared) was .921. What does this tell me? What if my “r” (correlation coefficient) was .654? What would this say?You could say "About 92.1% of the variation in student’s standardized entrance exams can be explained by the score of the quiz and their rank on the class list. The other 7.9% of the variation is either unexplained or is due to other things.As far as the “r” being .654 , I would say that I have a moderately strong positive correlation.

This data shows the Lab Report scores of 8 selected students and the number of hours they spent preparing their Statistics Lab Report. 40 was the highest score the student could make.(hours, scores), (3,34), (2,30), (4,38), (4,40), (2,32), (3,33), (4,37), (5,39) Week 3 QuizNot to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission.

B Heard
- 43. Week 3 QuizPredicted score for someone who spent one hour would be:y = 3.158(1) +24.71y = 27.9 or I would say 28 since all scores are in whole numbersAlso, correlation says nothing about causation!Not to be used, posted, etc. without my expressed permission. B Heard
