11.multidimensional distress analysis a search for new methodologyAlexander Decker
This document proposes a new multidimensional methodology for measuring both the performance and financial distress of businesses. The methodology is based on fuzzy set logic and can analyze deprivation across multiple dimensions. It introduces cut-offs to identify units as deprived in individual dimensions and across dimensions. The methodology then measures multidimensional subalternity using indicators like headcount ratio, average deprivation share, and average deprivation gap that satisfy properties like decomposability, replication invariance, and monotonicity. This provides a more flexible and multidimensional approach compared to previous multivariate models of financial distress analysis.
Multidimensional distress analysis a search for new methodologyAlexander Decker
This document proposes a new multidimensional methodology for analyzing the financial distress or performance of business units. Existing models measure distress or performance separately using single or multiple variables, but do not reconcile the two or account for multiple dimensions. The proposed methodology uses fuzzy set logic to assess levels of "deprivation" or underperformance across multiple dimensions. It establishes cutoff thresholds for each dimension below which a unit is considered deprived. An identification method determines which units are deprived in each dimension, and an aggregation method provides an overall multidimensional deprivation index. This allows analyzing the financial position of units from different angles simultaneously.
Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is a method used to classify observations into categories. LDA finds a linear combination of features that best separates two or more classes of objects. It assumes normal distributions of data and equal class prior probabilities. LDA seeks projections of high-dimensional data onto a line or plane that best separates the classes.
The document discusses analysis of variance (ANOVA) and linear regression. It provides an overview of ANOVA, including one-way ANOVA, its assumptions, hypotheses, and F-test. It also discusses linear regression, including determining the simple linear regression equation, assessing model fitness, correlation analysis, and assumptions of regression. As an example, it analyzes a study on the relationship between air pollution levels and respiratory disease consultations using these statistical techniques.

This document provides an overview of the history and types of essays written in the Philippines. It discusses how the essay form developed from religious writings in Spanish and local languages during Spanish colonial rule to become a vehicle for nationalist sentiments during the Propaganda Movement in the late 19th century. The essay was used to logically present issues, expose Spanish abuses, and provoke the people into action. Notable essayists from this period include Rizal, Lopez Jaena, Jacinto, and Mabini. The essay form continued to be used to express opposition to American colonial rule after the Philippine Revolution.
This document provides an overview of descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics summarize and describe data through measures like central tendency, variability, and relationships between variables. Inferential statistics help draw conclusions from samples to populations through hypothesis testing. Variables can be independent or dependent, discrete or continuous, and measured at the nominal, ordinal, or interval-ratio level. Different statistical analyses require different variable types and levels of measurement. The document concludes with examples of classifying variable levels and a homework assignment.
This document discusses key concepts for understanding test scores, including:
1. Types of measurement scales (nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio) and their properties.
2. Common ways to display test score data, such as frequency distributions and cumulative frequency distributions.
3. Using the mean (average) to represent how well the group performed overall and for comparisons to other groups.
4. Measures of variability to describe how spread out scores are from the average.
5. Considering an individual's score relative to the group.
6. Using correlation to examine the relationship between two abilities/test scores within individuals.
The document discusses Stanley Smith Stevens' theory of measurement scales, which proposes that there are four types of measurement scales - nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio - that differ in their ability to determine relationships between values and perform mathematical operations. Nominal scales only categorize data, ordinal scales can rank order data, interval scales have equal intervals between values, and ratio scales have a true zero point. Proper selection of a measurement scale depends on research objectives, response types, data properties, and other factors.
Statistics has been defined differently by different authors from time to time. Generally it is considered to be the subject that deals with percentage, charts and tables.
The word statistics comes from the Latin word status, meaning a political state originally meant information useful to the state e.g. information about the size of populations and armed forces.
The word statistics is defined as a discipline that includes procedure and techniques used to

What are the characteristics, uses, advantages, and disadvantages of each of the measures of location and measures of dispersion? Discuss them with examples
first reply
Measures of location and measures of dispersion are two different ways of describing quantitative variables. Measures of location are often known as averages. Measures of dispersion are often known as a variation or spread. Both measures are helpful with describing statistical information. (Lind, Marchal, & Wathen, 2015)
The different measures of location include: the arithmetic mean, the median, the mode, the weighted mean, and the geometric mean. All of these measures of location pinpoint the center of a distribution of data. An advantage of measures of location is that the averages show us the central value of the data. A disadvantage of only using measures of location is that we may not draw an accurate conclusion because an average does not tell the spread of the data. Some examples of using measures of location include: finding the average price of a concert ticket, finding the average age of homeowners in a community, finding the averages shoe size of boys between the ages of 13-19, and finding the average amount of money people spend on food annually. (Lind, Marchal, & Wathen, 2015)
The different measures of dispersion include: the range, the variance, and the standard deviation. All of these measures of dispersion tell us about the spread of the data and it helps us compare the spread in two or more distributions. Advantages of using measures of dispersion are that it gives us a better idea of the range in which an average was calculated, and it is easy to calculate and understand. A disadvantage of using measures of dispersion is that it is a broad measurement because it only shows the maximum and minimum values of data. For example, the salaries of dentists in the state of Georgia might range from $70,000-$120,000 (just a made up example – not necessarily accurate data). This information is great for someone to know the range of dentist salaries, but it lacks in showing specific information about dentists’ salaries. (Lind, Marchal, & Wathen, 2015)

These are the measures in common use of location and dispersion: arithmetic mean, median, mode, weighted mean, and geometric mean. The arithmetic mean, median, and mode The mean usually refers to the arithmetic mean or average. This is just the sum of the measurements divided by the number of measurements. We make a notational distinction between the mean of a population and the mean of a sample. The general rule is that Greek letters are used for population characteristics and Latin letters ar.
This document provides an introduction to statistics, defining key concepts and uses. It discusses how statistics is the science of collecting, organizing, analyzing, and interpreting numerical data. Various types of data are described including quantitative, qualitative, discrete, continuous, and different scales of measurement. Common statistical analyses like descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, and different ways of presenting data through tables and graphs are also outlined.
- Biostatistics refers to applying statistical methods to biological and medical problems. It is also called biometrics, which means biological measurement or measurement of life.
- There are two main types of statistics: descriptive statistics which organizes and summarizes data, and inferential statistics which allows conclusions to be made from the sample data.
- Data can be qualitative like gender or eye color, or quantitative which has numerical values like age, height, weight. Quantitative data can further be interval/ratio or discrete/continuous.
- Common measures of central tendency include the mean, median and mode. Measures of variability include range, standard deviation, variance and coefficient of variation.
- Correlation describes the relationship between two variables
Variables describe attributes that can vary between entities. They can be qualitative (categorical) or quantitative (numeric). Common types of variables include continuous, discrete, ordinal, and nominal variables. Data can be presented graphically through bar charts, pie charts, histograms, box plots, and scatter plots to better understand patterns and trends. Key measures used to summarize data include measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of variability (range, standard deviation, interquartile range).
This document provides an overview of key concepts in psychological statistics. It defines statistics as procedures for organizing, summarizing, and interpreting information using facts and figures. It discusses populations and samples, variables and data, parameters and statistics, descriptive and inferential statistics, sampling error, and experimental and nonexperimental methods. It also covers scales of measurement, frequency distributions, measures of central tendency and variability, and the importance of measurement in research.
This document provides information about various statistical concepts including variables, probability, distributions, hypothesis testing, and Python libraries for statistical analysis. It defines different types of variables, such as continuous, discrete, categorical, and their examples. It also explains concepts like population, sample, central tendency, dispersion, probability, distributions, hypothesis testing, t-test, z-test, ANOVA. Finally, it mentions commonly used Python libraries like SciPy for conducting statistical tests and analysis.
Commonly Used Statistics in Medical Research Part IPat Barlow
This presentation covers a brief introduction to some of the more common statistical analyses we run into while working with medical residents. The point is to make the audience familiar with these statistics rather than calculate them, so it is well-suited for journal clubs or other EBM-related sessions. By the end of this presentation the students should be able to: Define parametric and descriptive statistics
• Compare and contrast three primary classes of parametric statistics: relationships, group differences, and repeated measures with regards to when and why to use each
• Link parametric statistics with their non-parametric equivalents
• Identify the benefits and risks associated with using multivariate statistics
• Match research scenarios with the appropriate parametric statistics
The presentation is accompanied with the following handout: http://slidesha.re/1178weg
This document discusses measurement of variables in research design, including operational definition, scales of measurement, and assessing the reliability and validity of measurement instruments. It defines operational definition as reducing abstract concepts to measurable behaviors or properties. It describes four types of scales - nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio - and provides examples. It emphasizes that reliability ensures consistent measurement and addresses test-retest and parallel form reliability for assessing stability over time.

The document discusses key concepts in research methods including operationalization, hypotheses generation, units of analysis, measurement, levels of measurement, and reducing errors. It explains that a hypothesis is a proposed relationship between variables that can be tested. Good hypotheses should be empirical, general, plausible, specific, and relate to collected data. Measurement involves systematically observing variables and assigning numerical values. There are four levels of measurement - nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio - that determine appropriate statistical analyses. Error can be reduced through pilot testing, thorough training, and using multiple measures.
1. There are four levels of measurement for variables: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.
2. Nominal scales classify variables into categories while ordinal scales allow variables to be rank-ordered.
3. Interval and ratio scales indicate equal distances between variables and have a true zero point, respectively.
4. Different statistics can be applied depending on the level of measurement, with more advanced statistics used for higher levels.
Meta-analysis allows researchers to statistically combine numerous similar studies to increase power and measure the strength of relationships. It calculates a standardized effect size for each study based on factors like mean differences, odds ratios, or correlations. These effect sizes can then be aggregated into an overall effect size. Calculating effect sizes standardizes results across studies and accounts for differences in sample sizes and procedures. Common effect sizes include Cohen's d for differences between means, correlation coefficients, and odds ratios.
The document appears to be a statistics assignment submitted by a student analyzing daily stock price data of SBI, ICICI and HDFC banks from January 2012 to October 2012.
Key findings from the analysis include: SBI had the highest average price and turnover, while ICICI had the lowest variability in stock prices. A positive skewness was found for ICICI, indicating more high values, while SBI had a negative skewness. Correlation coefficients were computed between the stock prices and total traded quantities, and linear regression equations were formulated. Overall, the analysis aimed to identify which of the three bank stocks exhibited the most consistent patterns for investment purposes.
kelan nyo isubmit yung assignment no. 7 and 8 nyo nasa slides yun ng stats. isubmit nyo sa akin sa lunes during electromagnetism kasi kukulangin yung class participation nyo sa stats.
