STATISTICS 1 INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS
2.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 2 INTRODUCTION (1) In early 1987, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was faced a unprecedented situation. Thousands of people were dying of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Not only was there no known, but there was not even a drug available to slow the developmental of the disease. Early clinical trials of an experimental antiviral drug known then as azidothymidine (AZT) were promising Only 1 of 145 AIDS patients on AZT had died, compared to 19 of 137 patients in a control groups given a placebo.
3.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 3 INTRODUCTION (2) There were medical questions remaining to be answered. What was the optimal dose? For how long would the drug continue to thwart the virus? There was also an important statistical question, one that had to be answered before the medical and ethical questions could be addressed. Was the fewer number of deaths among AIDS patients using AZT the result of the drug, or was it due just to chance?
4.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 4 INTRODUCTION (3) Statistical test showed that the differences between the two groups was so great that the probability of their having occurred by chance was less than one in a thousand (Fischl et al., 1987). Armed with these statistics, the FDA gave final approval of the use of AZT in March of 1987, after only 21 months of testing
5.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 5 What is STATISTICS? A set of mathematical procedure for organizing, summarizing, and interpreting information (Gravetter, 2004) A branch of mathematics which specializes in enumeration data and their relation to metric data (Guilford, 1978) Any numerical summary measure based on data from a sample; contrasts with a parameter which is based on data from a population (Fortune, 1999) etc.
6.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 6 Two General Purpose of Statistics (Gravetter, 2007) 1. Statistic are used to organize and summarize the information so that the researcher can see what happened in the research study and can communicate the result to others 2. Statistics help the researcher to answer the general question that initiated the research by determining exactly what conclusions are justified base on the result that were obtained
7.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 7 DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS The purpose of descriptive statistics is to organize and to summarize observations so that they are easier to comprehend
8.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 8 INFERENTIAL STATISTICS The purpose of inferential statistics is to draw an inference about condition that exist in the population (the complete set of observation) from study of a sample (a subset) drawn from population
9.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 9 SOME TIPS ON STUDYING STATISTICS Is statistics a hard subject? IT IS and IT ISN’T In general, learning how-to-do-it requires attention, care, and arithmetic accuracy, but it is not particularly difficult. LEARNING THE ‘WHY’ OF THINGS MAY BE HARDER
10.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 10 SOME TIPS ON STUDYING STATISTICS Some parts will go faster, but others will require concentration and several readings Work enough of questions and problems to feel comfortable What you learn in earlier stages becomes the foundation for what follows Try always to relate the statistical tools to real problems
11.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 11 POPULATIONS and SAMPLES THE POPULATION is the set of all the individuals of interest in particular study THE SAMPLE is a set of individuals selected from a population, usually intended to represent the population in a research study The sample is selected from the population The result from the sample are generalized to the population
12.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 12 PARAMETER and STATISTIC A parameter is a value, usually a numerical value, that describes a population. A parameter may be obtained from a single measurement, or it may be derived from a set of measurements from the population A statistic is a value, usually a numerical value, that describes a sample. A statistic may be obtained from a single measurement, or it may be derived from a set of measurement from sample
13.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 13 SAMPLING ERROR It usually not possible to measure everyone in the population A sample is selected to represent the population. By analyzing the result from the sample, we hope to make general statement about the population Although samples are generally representative of their population, a sample is not expected to give a perfectly accurate picture of the whole population There usually is some discrepancy between sample statistic and the corresponding population parameter called sampling error
14.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 14 TWO KINDS OF NUMERICAL DATA Generally fall into two major categories: 1. Counted frequencies enumeration data 2. Measured metric or scale values measurement or metric data Statistical procedures deal with both kinds of data
15.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 15 DATUM and DATA The measurement or observation obtain for each individual is called a datum or, more commonly a score or raw score The complete set of score or measurement is called the data set or simply the data After data are obtained, statistical methods are used to organize and interpret the data
16.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 16 VARIABLE A variable is a characteristic or condition that changes or has different values for different individual A constant is a characteristic or condition that does not vary but is the same for every individual A research study comparing vocabulary skills for 12-year-old boys
17.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 17 QUALITATIVE and QUANTITATIVE Categories Qualitative: the classes of objects are different in kind. There is no reason for saying that one is greater or less, higher or lower, better or worse than another. Quantitative: the groups can be ordered according to quantity or amount It may be the cases vary continuously along a continuum which we recognized.
18.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 18 DISCRETE and CONTINUOUS Variables A discrete variable. No values can exist between two neighboring categories. A continuous variable is divisible into an infinite number or fractional parts ○ It should be very rare to obtain identical measurements for two different individual ○ Each measurement category is actually an interval that must be define by boundaries called real limits
19.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 19 CONTINUOUS Variables Most interval-scale measurement are taken to the nearest unit (foot, inch, cm, mm) depending upon the fineness of the measuring instrument and the accuracy we demand for the purposes at hand. And so it is with most psychological and educational measurement. A score of 48 means from 47.5 to 48.5 We assume that a score is never a point on the scale, but occupies an interval from a half unit below to a half unit above the given number.
20.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 20 FREQUENCIES, PERCENTAGES, PROPORTIONS, and RATIOS Frequency defined as the number of objects or event in category. Percentages (P) defined as the number of objects or event in category divided by 100. Proportions (p). Whereas with percentage the base 100, with proportions the base or total is 1.0 Ratio is a fraction. The ratio of a to b is the fraction a/b. A proportion is a special ratio, the ratio of a part to a total.
21.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 21 MEASUREMENTS and SCALES (Stevens, 1946) Nominal Ordinal Interval Ratio
22.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 22 NOMINAL Scale Some variables are qualitative in their nature rather than quantitative. For example, the two categories of biological sex are male and female. Eye color, types of hair, and party of political affiliation are other examples of qualitative or categorical variables. The most limited type of measurement is the distinction of classes or categories (classification). Each group can be assigned a number to act as distinguishing label, thus taking advantage of the property of identity. Statistically, we may count the number of cases in each class, which give us frequencies.
23.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 23 ORDINAL Scale Corresponds to was earlier called “quantitative classification”. The classes are ordered on some continuum, and it can be said that one class is higher than another on some defined variable. All we have is information about serial arrangement. We are not liberty to operate with these numbers by way of addition or subtraction, and so on.
24.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 24 INTERVAL Scale This scale has all the properties of ordinal scale, but with further refinement that a given interval (distance) between scores has the same meaning anywhere on the scale. Equality of unit is the requirement for an interval scales. Examples of this type of scale are degrees of temperature. A 100 in a reading on the Celsius scale represents the same changes in heat when going from 150 to 250 as when going from 400 to 500
25.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 25 INTERVAL Scale The top of this illustration shows three temperatures in degree Celsius: 00 , 500 , 1000 . It is tempting to think of 1000 C as twice as hot as 500 . The value of zero on interval scale is simply an arbitrary reference point (the freezing point of water) and does not imply an absence of heat. Therefore, it is not meaningful to assert that a temperature of 1000 C is twice as hot as one of 500 C or that a rise from 400 C to 480 C is a 20% increase
26.
© aSup-2007 INTRODUCTION TO
STATISTICS 26 INTERVAL Scale Some scales in behavioral science are measurement of physical variables, such as temperature, time, or pressure. However, one must ask whether the variation in the psychological phenomenon is being measured indirectly is being scaled with equal units. Most measurements in the behavioral sciences cannot posses the advantages of physical scales.
27.

STATISTICS 27 RATIO Scale One thing is certain: Scales …the kinds just mentioned HAVE ZERO POINT.
