Study Notes
Data Presentation
- Data presentation involves using various methods to display numerical or categorical data, making it easier to understand patterns and trends.
- Methods include textual, tabular, and graphical representations.
- Textual presentation involves describing data in paragraph form, highlighting key features and significant figures.
- Tabular presentation uses tables to organize data in rows and columns, facilitating easier analysis.
- Graphical presentations use charts and graphs to visualize data, providing a visual representation of relationships and patterns.
Types of Graphs
- Pie chart: A circle divided into segments, each representing a category's proportion of the whole. Ideal for showcasing proportions.
- Bar graph: Displays data using bars of varying heights, suitable for comparing discrete categories.
- Histogram: A bar graph representation of continuous data, where bars touch each other to show the distribution of data.
- Line graph: Shows trends over time or between variables, useful for continuous data, often including a frequency polygon.
- Frequency polygon: A line graph plotting frequencies of continuous data, connected by straight lines.
Frequency Distribution Table (FDT)
- An FDT summarizes data by grouping it into categories called class intervals (CI).
- Class size (c) is the width of each CI.
- Range (R) is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the data set. The number of classes (k) is a guideline.
- Steps in constructing an FDT:
- Determine the range of the data.
- Decide on the number of classes (k).
- Calculate the class size (c) using the formula c= R/K.
- Define the class intervals.
- Tally the data into the class intervals.
- Additional components in an FDT:
- Class boundaries (CB): Values marking the edges of class intervals, crucial for continuous data.
- Class mark (CM): The midpoint of a class interval, calculated by (upper limit + lower limit) /2.
- Relative frequency (RF): The proportion of data points falling within a specific CI (calculated as f/N, where f is the frequency, and N is the total observations).
- Less than Cumulative Frequency (<CF): The sum of frequencies up to the upper limit of a class.
- Greater than Cumulative Frequency (>CF): The sum of frequencies from the lower limit of a class to the end of the data set.
- Graphical representations of FDTs:
- Histograms
- Frequency polygons
- Ogives
Ogives
- An ogive is a graphical representation of cumulative frequency.
- Less-than ogive (<CF): Displays cumulative frequencies up to the upper class boundary.
- More-than ogive (>CF): Displays cumulative frequencies from the lower class boundary to the highest value of the data set.
Rules for Constructing graphs
- Label axes in graphs, including units for both the x-axis and y-axis.
- Indicate the class interval on the graph clearly.
- Include a title/description as part of the graph.
