  11. Measures of Central Tendency

  12. Major Points • Mode • Median • Mean • Relative advantages and disadvantages • Review questions

  13. Mode • The most common value • There may be several • Bimodal distribution has two distinct modes.

  14. Median • Center value in an ordered series • Average of two center values for an even number of points • Median location • location of central value • defined as (N + 1)/2

  15. Mean • What we normally call the “average” • Denoted as “xbar” • Calculated as • This will be our most common statistic

  16. Relative Advantages • Mode • The most frequently obtained score • Not influenced by extreme scores • Median • Little influenced by extreme scores • Reasonable estimate of what most people mean by the center of a distribution Cont.

  17. Advantages--cont. • Mean • Most common statistic • Easily manipulated algebraically • Good statistical properties

  18. Disadvantages • Mode • May not represent a large proportion of the scores • Ignores extreme values completely • Median • Slightly less desirable statistical properties than mean • May not be good to ignore extreme values Cont.

  19. Disadvantages--cont. • Mean • Too easily influenced by extreme scores • Requires some faith in interval properties of measurement.

  20. Review Questions • List the advantages and disadvantages of each measure of central tendency. • Which measure would you use if you wanted to discuss performance on a test? • If your class contains many older students, what measure of average income is appropriate?
