This document provides an overview of statistics and biostatistics. It defines statistics as the collection, analysis, and interpretation of quantitative data. Biostatistics refers to applying statistical methods to biological and medical problems. Descriptive statistics are used to summarize and organize data, while inferential statistics allow generalization from samples to populations. Common statistical measures include the mean, median, and mode for central tendency, and range, standard deviation, and variance for variability. Correlation analysis examines relationships between two variables. The document discusses various data types and measurement scales used in statistics. Overall, it serves as a basic introduction to key statistical concepts for research.
Analysis of data is a process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming, and modeling data with the goal of discovering useful information, suggesting conclusions, and supporting decision-making.
This presentation includes an introduction to statistics, introduction to sampling methods, collection of data, classification and tabulation, frequency distribution, graphs and measures of central tendency.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. What is Statistics?
• The science of collecting, analyzing and
making inference from the collected data.
• It is called as science and it is a tool.
3. Statistics (Contd…)
There are two words in Statistics
1. Statistic 2. Statistics
• Statistic: It means a measured (or) counted
fact (or) piece of information stated as figure
• Height of one person, birth of a baby, etc.,
• Statistics: It is also called Data. It is Plural.
Stated in more than one figures
• Height of 2 persons, birth of 5 babies etc. They
are collected from experiments, records, and
surveys.
4. Definition of Statistics
Statistics means that the collection of data, tabulation,
analysis and interpretation of quantitative information.
• In other words, Statistics is a branch of science used in
dealing with phenomena that can be described
numerically by counts or by measurements.
• Quantitative information: population, birth, fertility,
production and etc.
5. Definition of Statistics (contd…)
Statistics : used in two sense viz., singular and plural.
• In singular noun, it deals with collection, analysis
and interpretation of quantitative information.
• In plural sense, statistics denote some numerical
data such as birth, death etc.
6. Statistics is used in many fields
Medical Statistics
Agricultural Statistics
Educational Statistics
Mathematical Statistics
And so on………….
Bio-Statistics
7. Definition of Bio-Statistics
Bio-statistics: means when we use the statistical
tools on the Biological Problems and derived some
results about that. Example: Medical Science
It is also called Bio-metry. It means measurement
of life.
Normally, in medicine for precision, facts,
observations or measurements have to be
expressed in figures.
Bar diagrams, Multiple Bar diagram,Histogram, Pie
chart and etc.,
8. Bio-Statistics in Various areas
• In Public Health or Community Health,
it is called Health Statistics.
• In Medicine, it is called Medical
Statistics. In this we study the defect,
injury, disease, efficacy of drug, Serum
and Line of treatment, etc.,
• In population related study it is called
Vital Statistics. e.g. study of vital
events like births, marriages and
deaths.
10. Types of Statistics (Contd…)
• Descriptive Statistics:
Once the data have been collected, we can organize and
summaries in such a manner as to arrive at their orderly
presentation and conclusion. This procedure can be called
Descriptive Statistics.
• Inferential Statistics:
The number of birth and deaths in a state in a particular year.
12. Variable: A characteristic that varies from one
biological entity to another is termed as variable.
Various Measurements:
Ratio Scale:
The measurements scales having a constant size interval and
true zero point are said to be ratio of measurement.
Besides heights and numbers, ratio scales include weights
(mg, g), volumes (cc, cu.m), capacities (ml, l), rates (cm/sec.,
Km/h) and lengths of time (h, Yr) etc.,
Measurement Scale
13. Interval Scale:
Some measurement scales posses a constant interval
size but not a zero, they are called internal scales.
A good example is that of the two common
temperature scales.
Example: Celcius (C ) and Fahrenheit (F).
We can find the same difference exists between 25
degree celcius and 30 degree celcius as between 10
degree celcius and 15 degree celcius.
14. Ordinal Scale:
The data consist of an ordering or ranking of
measurement and are said to be on an ordinal scale.
For example: The examination marks of 75, 80, 87,
92, and 95% (ratio scale) might be recorded as A, B,
C, D and E (ordinal scale) respectively.
15. Nominal Scale:
The variables are classified by some quality rather
than by a numerical measurement. In such cases,
the variable is called an attribute and said to using a
nominal scale of measurement.
Examples:
1. Data are represented as male or female.
2. Heights may be recorded as tall or short.
16. Types of Data (contd…)
Quantitative Data
There is a natural numeric scale (numerical Value)
(It can be subdivided into interval and ratio data )
Example: age, height, weight
Qualitative Data
Measuring a characteristic for which there is no natural
numeric scale
( can be subdivided into nominal and ordinal data )
Example: Gender, Eye color
17. Definition of Biostatistics
• The statistical methods applied to biological problems is called
as Biostatistics.
• It is also called Biometry.
• Biometry means Biological Measurement or Measurement of
Life.
Statistical Method: It refers Both data and Methods
18. Methodology in Statistics

Decide what to
Measure and
How
Choose Method
and Collect Data

19. STATISTICAL METHODS IN RESEARCH
Croxton and Gowden said Statistical Method means “ the
collection, presentation, analysis and interpretation of
numerical data”.
1. Collection of Data:
It is the first step in collection of data. Careful planning is
essential before collecting the data.
20. Statistical Methods (contd…)
2. Presentation of Data:
• The mass data collected should be presented in a suitable
form for further analysis.
• The collected data may be presented in the form of tabular or
diagrammatic or graphical form.
3. Analysis of Data:
The data presented should be carefully analyzed from the
presented data such as measures of central tendencies,
dispersion, correlation, regression, etc.
21. Statistical Methods (Contd…)
4. Interpretation of Data:
• The final step is drawing conclusion from the data collected.
• A valid conclusion must be drawn on the basis of analysis.
• A high degree of skill and experience is necessary for the
interpretation.
22. Sample size calculation
4 x p x q
n = ------------
d x d
p = prevalence in (%)
q = 100 – p
d = allowable error (10% of prevalence)
23. Uses of Statistics in Research
o To calculate average, median, mode standard
deviation of the given collected data
o To compare two sets of data (t – test, F – test)
o To get a conclusion (or) result
o To find the association between the two variables
(Chi-Square test)
o To find the correlation bet. the two variables
r – value in between -1 and +1
o To give the results in a tabular or diagrammatic
form.
24. Measures of Central Tendency
• Mean - average (or) A.M
• Median - Positional average (Middle value)
• Mode – Most repeated value ( The frequent
value)
25. Mean:
Merits
• Mean can never be biased. It is easy to calculate.
• It is least affected by fluctuations of sampling.
• It is based on all the observations of a series. Therefore, it is a
most representative measure.
Demerits
• It is greatly affected by extreme fluctuations. Thus it is not a
true representative value of all the items of the series.
• A.M cannot be used for qualitative characteristics such as
colour of flowers, sweetness of orange or darkness of the
colour.
26. Median:
Merits
• Easy to calculate and understand
• It is not affected by extreme observations
• It is best measure for qualitative data.
Demerits
• It cannot be determined in the case of even number of
observations. We merely estimate it as the arithmetic mean
of the two middle terms.
• It is a positional average. It cannot be accepted for each and
every observation.
27. Mode: Merits
• It easy to calculate and understand
• It is not affected by extreme observations
• It can be calculated from a grouped frequency distribution.
Demerits:
• Mode is not rigidly defined.
• As compared to mean, mode is affected to a great extent by
the fluctuations of sampling.
28. Measures of variability
(or)
Measures of Dispersion
• Range
• Standard Deviation
• Mean Deviation
• Quartile Deviation
• Variance
• Co-efficient of variation
29. Range: Max. value – Min. value
Example: 96 - 34 = 62
Standard Deviation: Root Mean Square
Deviation
Variance:
31. Correlation
• describes the degree of relationship between two
variables.
• To define correlation is the average relationship
between two or more variables.
• When the change in one variable makes or causes a
change in other variable then there is a correlation
between these two variables.
• These correlated variables can move in the same
direction or they can move in opposite direction.
• Not always there is a cause and effect relationship
between the variables when there is a change; that
might be due to uncertain change.
32. Correlation (Contd…)
• Simple Correlation is a correlation between
two variables only; meaning the relationship
between two variables.
• Event correlation and simple event correlation
are the types of correlations mainly used in
the industry point of view.
33. Types of Correlation
(1) Positive Correlation
(2) Negative Correlation
(3) Perfectly Positive Correlation
(4) Perfectly Negative Correlation
(5) Zero Correlation
(6) Linear Correlation
34. Positive Correlation
• When two variables move in the same direction then the
correlation between these two variables is said to be Positive
Correlation.
• When the value of one variable increases, the value of other
value also increases at the same rate.
For example: the training and performance of employees in a
company.
Negative Correlation
• In this type of correlation, the two variables move in the
opposite direction.
When the value of a variable increases, the value of the other
variable decreases.
For example: the relationship between price and demand.
35. Perfect Positive Correlation
When there is a change in one variable, and if
there is equal proportion of change in the other
variable say Y in the same direction, then these two
variables are said to have a Perfect Positive Correlation.
Perfectly Negative Correlation
Between two variables X and Y, if the change in X
causes the same amount of change in Y in equal
proportion but in opposite direction, then this
correlation is called as Perfectly Negative Correlation.
36. Zero Correlation
• When the two variables are independent and the
change in one variable has no effect in other
variable, then the correlation between these two
variable is known as Zero Correlation.
Linear Correlation
• If the quantum of change in one variable has a ratio
of change in the quantum of change in the other
variable then it is known as Linear correlation.
