Variable
__ is a characteristic or measurement that can be determined for each member of a population.
Data
__ are the actual values of the variable
Qualitative Data and Quantitative Data
2 types of data:
Qualitative Data
it consists of attributes or labels
Quantitative Data
it consists of numerical measurement or counts
Discrete and Continuous
2 types of Quantitative:
Discrete
data values that can be counted
Continuous
data values that are obtained by measuring
Level of Measurement
it determines which statistical calculations are meaningful
Nominal, Ordinal, Interval, and Ratio
4 levels of measurement:
Nominal
it classifies data into mutually exclusive categories in which no order or ranking can be imposed on the data
Qualitative Only
data at the nominal level of measurement are __
Ordinal
it classifies data into categories that can be ranked; however, precise differences between the ranks do not exist
Qualitative
data at the ordinal level of measurement are __
Interval
__ ranks data, and precise differences between units of measure do exist; however, there is no meaningful zero.
Quantitative
data at the interval level of measurement are __
Ratio
it ranks data, and precise differences between units of measure do exist, and there exists a true zero
Quantitative
data at the ratio level of measurement are __
Discrete; Order less
properties of Nominal
Ordered categories; Comparisons
properties of Ordinal
Differences between ordered values have meaning
properties of Interval
Continuous; True 0 allows ratio statements
properties of Ratio
Bar and Pie
graphs for Nominal
Bar, Pie, and Stem and Leaf
graphs for Ordinal
Bar, Pie, Stem and Leaf, Box Plot, and Histogram
graphs for Interval
Histogram and Box Plot
graphs for Ratio
Data Sets
__ are proved to be more useful to organizations.
Record, Graph, and Ordered Data Sets
3 Main Types of Data Sets:
Record Data Sets
__ are those that are structured and presented in rows.
Record Data Sets
it may come in texts, numbers, or sequences
Data Matrix
another kind of record data is an m x n __ where m represents the rows or the numerical objects and n the columns for the numerical attributes. This is a matrix composed of real numbers
Market Basket/Transaction Data Set
it composed of combination of items or services that are often bought or lumped together
Graph Data Set
__ are those that represent relationships through the interconnections of points.
Graph Data Set
this can be commonly observed in sociograms and matrices that show the interaction between and among individuals in networks
Ordered Data Sets
__ are those that show data over certain sequences, periods, or progressions.
Time Series
one of the most common ordered data sets is the __. This includes data of a certain variable over a period of time
Big Data
__ is a data set so large or complex that traditional methods of storing, accessing and analyzing it is too expensive.
Big Data
__ is also a data but with huge size
Big Data
a collection of huge data sets that normal computing techniques cannot process\
Structured Data, Semi-Structured Data, and Unstructured Data
3 types of Big Data:
Structured Data
these are data that have proper structure associated with it and are stored in data bases in an ordered manner
Unstructured Data
data that does not have any structure associated with it at all
Unstructured Data
it has no clear format in storage and there was not much to do it except storing it or analyzing it manually
Data Collection
__ is the procedure of collecting, measuring, and analyzing accurate insights for research using standard validated techniques
Phone Surveys, Online Surveys, and In-Person Interviews
3 examples of Data Collection:
Raw Data
the data are in original form
Class
each raw data value is placed into a quantitative or qualitative category called __, when dealing with distributions
Frequency
the __ of a class then is the number of data values contained in a specific class.
Frequency Distribution
__ is the organization of raw data in table form, using classes and frequencies.
Categorical Frequency Distribution and Grouped Frequency Distribution
2 types of Frequency Distributions:
Categorical Frequency Distribution
it is used for the data that can be placed in specific categories
Histogram
it is constructed by placing the variable of interest on the horizontal axis and the selected frequency measure on the vertical axis.
Histogram
it provides information about the shape, form, or skewness of a distribution.
Grouped Frequency Distribution
it is a way of organizing a large set of data into more manageable groups.
Class Intervals
the groups that we organize the numerical data into are called __
