2 GOALS Develop and interpret a dot plot. Develop and interpret a stem-and-leaf display. Compute and understand quartiles, deciles, and percentiles. Construct and interpret box plots. Compute and understand the coefficient of skewness. Draw and interpret a scatter diagram. Construct and interpret a contingency table.

3 Dot Plots A dot plot groups the data as little as possible, identifying all individual observations. – In a dot plot, each observation is simply displayed as a dot along a horizontal number line indicating the possible values of the data. – If there are identical observations or observations are too close to be shown individually, the dots are “piled” on top of each other.

4 Dot Plots - Examples Reported below are the number of vehicles sold in the last 24 months at Smith Ford Mercury Jeep, Inc., and Brophy Honda Volkswagen. Construct dot plots and report summary statistics for the two dealers.

5 Dot Plot – Minitab Example

6 Stem-and-Leaf In Chapter 2, we organize data into a frequency distribution. – A quick visual picture of the shape of the distribution. A technique used to display quantitative information in a condensed form is the stem-and-leaf display. Stem-and-leaf display is a statistical technique to present a set of data. – Each numerical value is divided into two parts. The leading digit(s) becomes the stem and the trailing digit the leaf. – The stems are located along the vertical axis, and the leaf values are stacked against each other along the horizontal axis. Advantage of the stem-and-leaf display over a frequency distribution - the identity of each observation is not lost.

7 Stem-and-Leaf – Example Suppose the seven observations in the 90 up to 100 class are: 96, 94, 93, 94, 95, 96, and 97. The stem value is the leading digit or digits, in this case 9. The leaves are the trailing digits. The stem is placed to the left of a vertical line and the leaf values to the right. Then, we sort the values within each stem from smallest to largest. Thus, the stem-and-leaf display would appear as follows:

8 Stem-and-leaf: Another Example Listed in Table 4–1 is the number of 30-second radio advertising spots purchased by each of the 45 members of Automobile Dealers Association. Organize the data into a stem-and-leaf display. Around what values do the number of advertising spots tend to cluster? What is the fewest number of spots purchased by a dealer? The largest number purchased?

9 Stem-and-leaf: Another Example

10 The standard deviation is the most widely used measure of dispersion. Alternative ways of describing spread of data include determining the location of values that divide a set of observations into equal parts. These measures include quartiles, deciles, and percentiles. Quartiles, Deciles and Percentiles

11 To formalize the computational procedure, let L p refer to the location of a desired percentile. If we want to find the 33rd percentile we would use L 33 and if we wanted the median, the 50th percentile, then L 50. For example, with the number of observations n, if we want to locate the median (i.e. L 50 ), its position is at (n + 1)/2 & the location of the first quartile will be (n + 1)/4. Percentile Computation

12 Percentiles - Example Listed below are the commissions earned by a sample of 15 brokers at one office of Salomon Smith Barney, which is an investment company. $2,038 $1,758 $1,721 $1,637 $2,097 $2,047 $2,205 $1,787 $2,287 $1,940 $2,311 $2,054 $2,406 $1,471 $1,460 Locate the median, the first quartile, and the third quartile for the commissions earned.

13 Percentiles – Example (cont.) Step 1: Organize the data from lowest to largest value $1,460 $1,471 $1,637 $1,721 $1,758 $1,787 $1,940 $2,038 $2,047 $2,054 $2,097 $2,205 $2,287 $2,311 $2,406

14 Percentiles – Example (cont.) Step 2: Compute the first and third quartiles. Locate L 25 and L 75 using:

16 Boxplot - Example

18 Skewness In Chapter 3, measures of central location (the mean, median, and mode) and measures of dispersion (e.g. range and the standard deviation) were introduced Another characteristic of a set of data is the shape. There are four shapes commonly observed: – symmetric, – positively skewed, – negatively skewed, – bimodal.

19 Commonly Observed Shapes

20 Skewness - Formulas for Computing There are several measures of skewness, with the simplest one being Pearson’s coefficient of skewness, ranging from -3 up to 3. – A value near -3 indicates considerable negative skewness. – A value such as 1.63 indicates moderate positive skewness. – A value of 0, which will occur when the mean and median are equal, indicates the distribution is symmetrical and that there is no skewness. Another example is software coefficient of skewness, based on the cubes of standardized deviations from the mean.

21 Skewness – An Example Following are the earnings per share for a sample of 15 software companies in The values are arranged from smallest to largest. Compute the mean, median, and standard deviation. Find the coefficient of skewness using Pearson’s estimate. What is your conclusion regarding the shape of the distribution?

22 Skewness – An Example Using Pearson’s Coefficient

23 Describing Relationship between Two Variables One graphical technique we use to show the relationship between variables is called a scatter diagram. To draw a scatter diagram we need two variables. We scale one variable along the horizontal axis (X-axis) and the other variable along the vertical axis (Y-axis) of a graph.

24 Describing Relationship between Two Variables – Scatter Diagram Examples

25 In Chapter 2 we saw data giving the information on the prices of 80 vehicles sold at an automobile dealer. The data include the selling price of the vehicle as well as the age of the purchaser. Is there a relationship between the selling price of a vehicle and the age of the purchaser? Would it be reasonable to conclude that the more expensive vehicles are purchased by older buyers?

26 Describing Relationship between Two Variables – Scatter Diagram Excel Example

27 Contingency Tables A scatter diagram requires that both of the variables be at least interval scale. What if we wish to study the relationship between two variables when one or both are nominal or ordinal scale? In this case we tally the results in a contingency table.

28 Contingency Tables – An Example A manufacturer of windows produced 50 products yesterday. The inspector reviewed each window for its quality. Each was classified as acceptable or defective and by the shift on which it was produced. Thus we reported two variables on each product. The two variables are shift and quality. The results are reported in the following table.
