  1. Chapter 2 • Frequency Distributions and Graphs • I Frequency Distributions for Quantitative Variables • A. Ungrouped Frequency Distribution • 1. Each class interval contains a single score value

  2. Table 1. Taylor Manifest Anxiety Scores • (1) (2) 74 1 73 1 72 0 71 2 70 7 69 8 68 5 67 2 66 1 65 1 n = 28

  3. 2. Class interval size, i i = score real upper limit – score real lower limit B. Grouped Frequency Distribution 1. Each class interval spans two or more score values

  16. 1. Construction of pie charts Conversion of Prop f To Minutes Accidents .07  60 = 4.2 Cancer .22  60 13.2 + 4.2 =17.4 Heart disease .38  60 22.8 + 17.4 = 40.2 Stroke .08  60 4.8+ 40.2 =45.0 Other .25  60 15.0+ 45.0 =60.0

  17. V Shapes of Distributions

  18. VI Misleading Graphs Figure 1. Two plots of the same data. Figure (a) is misleading.

  19. A. Pictogram Figure 2. Figure (a) is misleading because it uses both height and area to represent computer sales
