  1. 1st Semester Final Review Day 1: Exploratory Data Analysis Hardest title, easiest problems!

  2. Graphs – Quantitative Data Stemplot Back to Back Stemplot Calf Weight Supplement No Supplement Parts per million ClO2

  3. Graphs – Quantitative Data Boxplot Histogram Modified Boxplot

  4. Graphs – Quantitative Data Side by Side Boxplots

  5. Graphs – Categorical Data Pie Chart Bar Chart 29.0% 24.8% 70 60 50 40 46.2% Frequency 30 20 10 0 Liberal Moderate Conservative Political Identification

  6. Graphs – Categorical Data Side by Side Bar Chart Segmented Bar Chart

  7. Describing or comparing distributions • Center – mean, median (generally use median when looking at a graph) • Shape (symmetry/skew, modes/peaks, unusual features) • Spread – standard deviation, range, IQR (generally use range or IQR when looking at a graph)

  8. Center • Mean: add up and divide by n • Strongly affected by outliers & skew (pulled in the direction of the skew or outliers) • Median: order the numbers and find the middle • Resistant to skew/outliers (not strongly affected)

  9. Shape Approximately Symmetric Skewed Left Skewed Right

  10. Shape Unimodal Bimodal Uniform Multimodal

  11. Spread • Range: Max – Min (affected by outliers) • Quartiles: (resistant to skew/outliers) Q1 = 25th percentile (median of the bottom half) Median = 50th percentile Q3 = 75th percentile (median of the top half) • IQR: Interquartile range = Q3 – Q1 • Standard Deviation: average distance of individual values away from the mean • Strongly affected by outliers/skew (not resistant)

  12. Are there outliers in a data set? • Outliers are values which are outside the upper or lower fence • Upper fence = Q3 + 1.5(IQR) • Lower fence = Q1 – 1.5(IQR)

  13. What happens to summary statistics when we… • Add a constant to a data set? • Measures of position (center, minimum, maximum, quartiles) change • Measures of spread (standard deviation, range, IQR) do not change • Multiplya data set by a constant? • Measures of position and measures of spread change

  14. Standardized Score • z-score = the number of standard deviations a value falls above or below the mean • For an Individual:

  15. Normal Distribution (68-95-99.7 Rule) • Also called the Empirical Rule Standard deviation = 1st inflection point
