• Measures of Dispersion
Measures of Dispersion
• Data set: 3,4,3,1,2,3,9,5,6,7,4,8
• Range (Max-Min) (9-1 = 8)
• Inter Quartile Range: 3rd quartile -1st quartile (75th Percentile – 25th
Percentile) (6.5 – 3 = 3.5)
• Sample Standard deviation
1
𝑁 − 1
(𝑥𝑖 − 𝑥)2
𝑁
𝑖=1
=
1
12 − 1
((3 − 4.58)2
+ (4 − 4.58)2
… )
Measures of Dispersion
• Questions that go with Standard deviation
• Why do we use the square function on the deviations? What are its
implications?
• Why do we work on standard deviation and not the variance?
• Why do we average by dividing by N-1 and not N?
• Mean absolute Deviation and its variants
• Use 𝑥𝑖 − 𝑥 instead of (𝑥𝑖 − 𝑥)2
