[1.1] [Founder and Introduction of Statistics]
[In the late 1920s, Dr. William Edward Deming has shown a great interest in Stewart’s work
on statistical control of processes and technical tool as well as control chart on industrial
production and management. In 1940, Dr. Dewing was hired by U.S Census Bureau
Department, enabled him to apply a complex statistical data together with the total
quality control management into industrial operations].

[Francis Galton is an English born in year
1822 and died in year
1911. He was accredited as one of the
principal founder of statistical theory. His
contributions to the statistics field by
introducing the standard deviation,
correlation, regression and the figures
application of human characteristics such
as height, weight, level of health condition
and so forth relating to University of South
Hampton].
[Karl Pearson (1857-1936) was a major
contributor to the early development of
statistics especially on chi-square test.]1

[1.2] [Why Study Importance of Statistics]
[Statistics plays a vital role almost in every field of our daily living activities inclusive
commercialization, business, physics, chemistry, economics, mathematics, biology,
botany, psychology, astronomy, so forth almost every career needs statistics theory
as well as application2]
[1.2.1] [Business Plan Production]
[Statistics plays an important role in business. A successful business man must be very quick
and accurate in decision making. For example, what behavioral dimensions or
characteristics would we expect to find in people with high achievement motivation in
business production? They would probably have the five following broad characteristics:]
[1.2.1.1] [Elements of Dimension on Number of Hours Employees’ Work Engagement]
[The characteristic will be the employees are constantly working in order to derive the
satisfaction of having achieved and accomplished. However, beyond working hours at
the workplace and at home, where they are likely to carry their unfinished assignments.
Thus, merely, observing and keeping track of the number of hours that they work would
provide an indication of the extent to which business or work production drives them.
Next, keeping track of how frequently people continue to preserve with their job despite
failures offers a good idea of how persevering people to be successful in their business
production. Another example if a Diploma In Accounting and Diploma In Business student

obtain D grading on three quizzes, it consider themselves are having difficulties to
preserve mind oriented achievement. Hence, if the student or business woman failing in
their assignment, they can be measured as by the number of setbacks people
experience on the job yet continue to work. Thus, below mentioned information we can
classify it as one of our independent or dependent variable measurement such as:-]
[a.] [The number of hours per week individuals spends on work-related activities]
[b.] [How persevering they are completing their daily tasks?]
[c.] [How frequently and what reasons they take time off from their jobs?]
[Moreover, in this chapter, the reader will be exposed with the understanding of the
concept of quality operation achievement motivation dimension. Next, the data can be
used as an example ways on how the researchers should be capable to recognize or
measure as data findings in the form of statistic classification. This can be referred as in
Figure 1 that may establish the facts or numerical with graphical presentation that may be
useful for your research data collection as a sampling for the whole population].
Figure 1 : Non-Communicable & Communicable Diseases WHO Human Health Statistics Analysis &
Estimation Report For 2004, 2015, 2030
[1.2.2] [Economics]
[Economics largely depends on statistics. The economist’s researcher is generally finding it
hard to relax and devote their attention to other work-related activity. Hence, the
statistical methods such as graphical presentation are used to prepare these accounts
that may establish the relationship between supply and demand on the country’s imports
or exports either in the form of neither inflation rates nor per capita income. Therefore,
without a good knowledge of statistics may delay the decision making analysis process.]

[1.2.2.1] [Elements of Dimension Unwillingness to Relax]
[Why researchers or economics are normally unwillingly to relax? Normally, as an
economist they need to provide multipurpose indicators for economists and administrators
which lead them become very busy to prepare these accounts. can be asking individuals
such as how often they think of work while away from workplace, what are their hobbies
and how often they spend their time when not at the workplace or cultural activities or
college or library or religious or sports recreation? Thus, these dimensions are measurable.]
[1.2.3] [Mathematics]
[Statistics plays a central role in almost all natural and social sciences. The methods used
are the most reliable by describing the probability averages numbers, dispersions,
estimation that varies of different techniques of pure mathematics like integration,
differentiation and algebra are used in statistics.
[1.2.3.1 Mathematics Requires Research Survey to Obtain Research Variables]
[Statistics and mathematics formula can be formed if there is research survey can be
found. Hence, surveys are useful and powerful for finding answers to research questions
but it cannot be done if it is not correctly targeted with appropriate problem solving skills
presentation which is based on types of variables measurement data comprises of
qualitative and quantitative.]
[Qualitative data]
[A qualitative data is to apply the research methodology which may
include the variable that cannot assume a numerical value but can
be classified into two or more nonnumeric categories such as :-]

[Quantitative data]
[A quantitative data is to apply the research methodology using
questionnaires and hypothesis tests effects measurement on two or more
variables sampling that can be measured numerically. This is normally using
observational studies, experiments and probability perception which
associated with the continuous data that having with the numerical values,
percentages values or physical measurements. The two levels between:-
Interval Level Data
Ratio Level Data
[1.2.3.2] [Random Sampling]
[A sample drawn in such a way that each element of the population has some chance of
being selected is the same for each element of the population.]
1. [Write each of the 50 names on a separate piece of paper]
2. [Place all 50 slips in a box and mix them thoroughly]
3. [Randomly draw five slips from the box]
4. [Find any article from newspaper, magazines or internet regarding inferential
and descriptive statistics]
[1.2.3.3] [Stratified Sampling]
[The stratified sampling is an excellent way to ensure that a sample looks like a population
but smaller although it requires the most resources and information segregation of
demographic profile such as age, gender, race, income, political affiliation or
geographical location.]
[1.2.3.4] [Convenience Sampling]
[A convenience sample makes use of data that are convenient to gather. For
example a student could stand at the center of campus, or in front of the library or dining
hall, and sample people as they pass by. This data sometimes can be biased or hidden
data measurement.]

- Population]
[Statistics and mathematics formula can be established if the population of the entire
group of people, events or things articles of international paper critiques that may
capture the interest to be identified by the researchers or business statistics students as a
target sample application of the business statistics. For example, if the CEO of Cosmopoint
College wants to provide quality healthy lifestyle promotion and wants to know more
about what kinds of knowledge research business statistics strategies adopted by College
Institutions, in New Zealand. Then all College Institutions situated in New Zealand will be
the target population of the study.]
[1.2.3.3] [Mathematics Requires To Obtain Research Variables -Element]
[Statistics and mathematics formula can be illustrated if there is an element of the single
entire member of the population available in the research study. For example, each
single professional blue collar worker prefers to exercise and coming to work during the
lecture and flexible hours may increases knowledge research and organization
productivity. Both are an example which can be the factors of the knowledge research
and organization productivity.]

[1.2.3.3.1] [Research Variables –Element of Research Gaps3]
[An element of research gaps are explaining the intention of the CEO to improve the
problems faced by the whole organization and within the country that probably creating
the implications to the whole population in association with the statistics and mathematics
formula.]
[1.2.3.3.2] [Element of Research Survey Using Questionnaires Measurement Scaling]
[Surveys are useful and beneficial for problem solving. Hence, the research questions are
needed to be constructed to determine your Chapter Four (4) Topic of Research Findings.
However, the research survey must have the correct questions, methodologies and
recommendations for Chapter Five (5). With the Chapter One (1) (Introduction), Chapter
Two (2) (Literature Review), Chapter Three (3) Research Methodology will help the CEO to
analyze whether your recommendations as a problem solving to justify the relationship
between your understanding of the research variable effects between the targeted
population and element variable interest sampling4 effects selected by the researchers or
business statistics students.]
[1.2.3.3.3] [Subject Measurement Scaling and Sampling Frame]
[A subject is a single member of the sample that can be also as an element member of
the population which to be analyzed. Next, the sampling frame is a listing refers to the
elements in the population from which the sample is drawn. Moreover, there are three
measurement scale in order to obtain the questionnaires measurement answer from the
respondents providing number of mathematics in statistics as follows:-]

have participants but did
not actually participate are
not considered part of your
sample. Example you email
200 people only 100 people
replying your email and this
100 individuals who reply
can be your sample.
Population is the broader group of people to whom
you intend to generalize the results of your study.
Your sample will always be a subset of your
population. Your exact population will depend on
the scope of your study. For instance, say your
research question asks if there is an association
between emotional intelligence and job
satisfaction in nurses who work in Sabah Women
Children Hospital. In this case, your population
might be nurses.
