Q

how do u do standard deviation

A
  • work out the mean
  • work out how much each data set deviates from the mean ( x- mean )
  • square that diffence so nun are - number
  • then u add all the squares up and work out the average according to the number of data piece u have
  • then finally you square root that number

Q

how do u do a spearmans rank corrilation

A
  • Rank from highest to lowest both data sets
  • if more than 1 pieces of data have the same value u add up all the ranks , E.g. 1+2+3 and then devise them work out the mean rank. so in this case 2. all data sets are then given a rank of 2 and u skip 1 2 and 3
  • then u work out the differnce between the ranks (rank 1- rank 2 )
  • then u square the diffence value to get rid of squares
  • then u add them all up
  • that value =D squared (D2)
  • then u put it in the formula
  • N in the formula = number of values

Q

what does spearmans rank tell us

A
  • the correlation coefficent of two data sets
  • if and to what extent two data sets are corrilated
17
Q

what do differnt spearmans rank scores tell us

A
  • -1 perfect negtive corrilation
  • 1 is a perfect possitve corrilation
  • 0 is no correlation
  • 0.2 or soemthing therfore would be a low correlation
18
Q

can you have a spearmans rank correlation of more than 1

A

no or youve done it wrong

19
Q

is there an upper or lower limmit to standard deviation

A

in theory no
