Same center, different variation Measures of Variation Measures of variation give information on the spread or variability or dispersion of the data values. Variation Standard Deviation Coefficient of Variation RangeVariance

Locating Extreme Outliers: Z-Score  To compute the Z-score of a data value, subtract the mean and divide by the standard deviation.  The Z-score is the number of standard deviations a data value is from the mean.  A data value is considered an extreme outlier if its Z- score is less than -3.0 or greater than  The larger the absolute value of the Z-score, the farther the data value is from the mean.

Locating Extreme Outliers: Z-Score where X represents the data value X is the sample mean S is the sample standard deviation

Locating Extreme Outliers: Z-Score  Suppose the mean math SAT score is 490, with a standard deviation of 100.  Compute the Z-score for a test score of 620. A score of 620 is 1.3 standard deviations above the mean and would not be considered an outlier.

Shape of a Distribution Describes how data are distributed Two useful shape related statistics are: Skewness Measures the extent to which data values are not symmetrical Kurtosis Kurtosis affects the peakedness of the curve of the distribution—that is, how sharply the curve rises approaching the center of the distribution

Shape of a Distribution (Skewness) Measures the extent to which data is not symmetrical Mean = Median Mean < Median Median < Mean Right-Skewed Left-SkewedSymmetric Skewness Statistic 0

Shape of a Distribution -- Kurtosis measures how sharply the curve rises approaching the center of the distribution) Sharper Peak Than Bell-Shaped (Kurtosis > 0) Flatter Than Bell-Shaped (Kurtosis < 0) Bell-Shaped (Kurtosis = 0)

Quartile Measures Quartiles split the ranked data into 4 segments with an equal number of values per segment 25% The first quartile, Q 1, is the value for which 25% of the observations are smaller and 75% are larger Q 2 is the same as the median (50% of the observations are smaller and 50% are larger) Only 25% of the observations are greater than the third quartile Q1Q2Q3 25%

Quartile Measures: Locating Quartiles Find a quartile by determining the value in the appropriate position in the ranked data, where First quartile position: Q 1 = (n+1)/4 ranked value Second quartile position: Q 2 = (n+1)/2 ranked value Third quartile position: Q 3 = 3(n+1)/4 ranked value where n is the number of observed values

Quartile Measures: Calculation Rules When calculating the ranked position use the following rules If the result is a whole number then it is the ranked position to use If the result is a fractional half (e.g. 2.5, 7.5, 8.5, etc.) then average the two corresponding data values. If the result is not a whole number or a fractional half then round the result to the nearest integer to find the ranked position.

(n = 9) Q 1 is in the (9+1)/4 = 2.5 position of the ranked data so use the value half way between the 2 nd and 3 rd values, so Q 1 = 12.5 Quartile Measures: Locating Quartiles Sample Data in Ordered Array: Q 1 and Q 3 are measures of non-central location Q 2 = median, is a measure of central tendency

(n = 9) Q 1 is in the (9+1)/4 = 2.5 position of the ranked data, so Q 1 = (12+13)/2 = 12.5 Q 2 is in the (9+1)/2 = 5 th position of the ranked data, so Q 2 = median = 16 Q 3 is in the 3(9+1)/4 = 7.5 position of the ranked data, so Q 3 = (18+21)/2 = 19.5 Quartile Measures Calculating The Quartiles: Example Sample Data in Ordered Array: Q 1 and Q 3 are measures of non-central location Q 2 = median, is a measure of central tendency

Quartile Measures: The Interquartile Range (IQR) The IQR is Q 3 – Q 1 and measures the spread in the middle 50% of the data The IQR is also called the midspread because it covers the middle 50% of the data The IQR is a measure of variability that is not influenced by outliers or extreme values Measures like Q 1, Q 3, and IQR that are not influenced by outliers are called resistant measures

Calculating The Interquartile Range Median (Q 2 ) X maximum X minimum Q1Q1 Q3Q3 Example: 25% 25% Interquartile range = 57 – 30 = 27

The Five Number Summary The five numbers that help describe the center, spread and shape of data are:  X smallest  First Quartile (Q 1 )  Median (Q 2 )  Third Quartile (Q 3 )  X largest

Five Number Summary and The Boxplot The Boxplot: A Graphical display of the data based on the five-number summary: Example: X smallest -- Q 1 -- Median -- Q 3 -- X largest 25% of data 25% 25% 25% of data of data of data X smallest Q 1 Median Q 3 X largest
