fdt Flashcards
is a tabular arrangement of data by categories and their corresponding frequencies.
Frequency distribution table
the data are incorporated in the text of the report.
Textual form
the data are presented in rows and columns.
Tabular form
utilized for an “easy to digest” information. This comes in graphs and diagrams.
graphics form
are data collected in an investigation and they are not organized systematically.
Raw data
-Raw data that are presented in the form of a frequency distribution.
Grouped data
2 METHODS OF ORGANIZING RAW DATA
Array and Stem-and-leaf display/diagram
An ordering of the observations from smallest to the largest or vice versa (low and high values can be easily perceived).
Array
gives a good overall impression of the data.
Stem and leaf
-Another way of presenting raw data is the
frequency table.
-When the data are arranged in tabular form by
the frequencies
-the arrangement itself is called
Frequency distribution

Y = height of the curve
X = any score in the distribution table
σ = standard deviation of the population
μ = mean of the population
π = 3.1416
e = 2.7183
z-Table also known as
the Table of Areas under the Normal Curve
e in statistics refers to the distribution of your data between the lowest and
highest values in the distribution.
range
is given by the midpoint of the upper limit of one class and the lower limit of the next
class
class boundary
