Study Notes
Secondary Data
- Secondary data refers to data that is collected from existing sources, such as published research papers, books, articles, and online resources.
- Precautions to be taken before using secondary data for further investigation:
- Evaluate the credibility and reliability of the source
- Check the methodology and data collection techniques used
- Consider the limitations and biases of the data
- Ensure the data is relevant to the current research question
Mean and Mode
- Calculate mean and mode from the given data:
- A comes (More than) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70
- No. of Persons 100 87 73 60 44 20 10 5
- Mean and mode calculation is pending (awaiting further instructions)
Objectives of Classification of Data
- The objectives of classification of data are:
- To simplify and summarize large datasets
- To facilitate data analysis and interpretation
- To identify patterns and relationships between variables
- To facilitate data comparison and communication
- Different methods of classification include:
- Quantitative classification (based on numerical values)
- Qualitative classification (based on categorical values)
- Hierarchical classification (based on tree-like structures)
Median and Mode
- Calculate median and mode from the given data:
- Below 10 20 30 40
- Frequency 5 20 70 90 98 100
- Median and mode calculation is pending (awaiting further instructions)
Coefficient of Variance
- Calculate the coefficient of variance for the given data:
- 3, 4, 6, 7, 10
- Coefficient of variance calculation is pending (awaiting further instructions)
Time Series
- A time series refers to a sequence of data points measured at regular time intervals.
- The main components of a time series are:
- Trend (long-term pattern or direction)
- Seasonal variation (periodic fluctuations)
- Cyclical variation (long-term cycles)
- Irregular variation (random or unexplained fluctuations)
Budget Analysis
- Analysis of a middle-class family's budget in Delhi:
- Expenditure distribution: 40% food, 20% rent, 15% clothing, 10% fuel, 15% miscellaneous
- Price index in 1992: 100, 40, 60, 20, 50
- Price index in 1993: 150, 60, 75, 25, 80
- Change in cost of living expenditure between 1992 and 1993:
- Percentage change in food expenditure
- Percentage change in rent expenditure
- Percentage change in clothing expenditure
- Percentage change in fuel expenditure
- Percentage change in miscellaneous expenditure
