  1. Descriptive Statistic Rosseni Din Muhammad Faisal Kamarul Zaman Nurainshah Abdul Mutalib

  2. Why? • To describe the sample • To check the assumption • To address specific research questions

  3. How? • Frequencies • Descriptives • Explore

  4. Frequencies • Categorical variables • E.g. • Male vs Female

  5. Descriptives • Continous variables • Provides: • Mean • Median • Standard deviation • Provides info on distribution of scores • Skewness • Kurtosis • Searching for missing data

  6. Normality • Symmetrical, bell-shaped curve • Greatest frequencies in the middle and smaller are toward the extreme • Obtained by skewness and kurtosis values • Histogram can also be used

  7. Outliers • Histogram • Look at the tails of the distribution • Boxplot • Look at the little circles with number attached • Check whether it is an error or not

  8. Descriptive Statistic Descriptive statistic used to give a systematic general idea using Frequency, Mean and others. This test is only used to report frequencies and percentages involved in the researches conducted. The steps are:

  9. Click Analyze, Descriptive Statistics and choose Frequency

  10. 2. This will be displayed:

  11. 3. Move the variables that you want to look at the frequencies

  19. 4. In Display, make sure both (Dependent dan Independent) is chosen.

  22. 7. For Option, in Missing Value section, choose Exclude Cases pairwaise. Click continue then OK

  23. 8. The output will be like this: for Kolmogorof- Smirnov table, we are given information about data normality value. When the value shows non signifikan value ( value > 0.05) this shows that the data is normal

  24. To look for OUTLIERS from the normality test procedures , we can also look for outliers in our data. This can be done using Boxplot. It is shown in small circle with number outside the boxplot as shown in the next slide:

  25. Example of data that have outliers In this case, there are 2 data which is categorized as outliers which is respondent number 177 dan 117. in order to eliminate them we need to go back and delete this 2 data.
