Exam #1

- What are the two types of statistics? (5pts.)

The two types of statistics are descriptive and inferential. In descriptive statistics, the data of a population is summarized graphically or numerically through derivation of statistics related to central tendency and dispersion around the same. The shape and nature of distribution is also used in descriptive statistics.
In inferential statistics, the parameters of a population are inferred according to sample statistics. This involves the estimation of statistics of a group allowing for approximation of information data relating to the entire population. In this type of statistics, modeling are used to generate mathematical ...

1. Compare and contrast descriptive vs. inferential statistics.

The first method used to describe a statistical measure is known as descriptive statistics. This kind of statistics describes the distribution of a set of data by means of specific measure of variables. It conveys the crucial properties of the population as they are without extrapolation. This kind of analysis makes it possible to understand the underlying concepts behind a population that would not be possible by studying individuals. Every variable in the study is taken into consideration .

On the other hand, inferential statistics is a method of defining a population by drawing conclusions on unknown aspects of a population from studying a sample of that ...

Type 1 and Type II Errors

The fundamental goal of research aims at testing the truthfulness of the null hypothesis. However, type 1 and type 2 errors may result from the process of testing the hypothesis. These errors negate the results of the study, consequently; this means that the results do not reflect the true condition. Type 1 error results from rejecting a true null hypothesis, while type 2 error results when a false-null hypothesis is accepted. For example, supposing that the research hypothesis is that drug A improves brain capacity for schizophrenia patients above 60 years. If a study is conducted to establish whether drug A is ...

Primary data is all about collecting and using data directly from the area of concern using methods such as interviews, surveys and focus groups while secondary data entails using data that is already existent like in journals and newsprints. Secondary data gives details about past areas of interest that were researched on while primary data gives information on the current area of interest to the researcher. Some of the disadvantages of using newspaper and magazine articles as secondary sources are that a person cannot know for sure if the articles represent the views of the writer or whether it represents a ...

Kohonen Network

While not the first of its kind, the Self-Organizing Map is a form of artificial neural network that became useful because of its use in visualizing and analyzing high-dimensional data on a low-dimensional scale. It gained its common name, the Kohonen Network, after a Finnish professor by the name of Teuvo Kohonen introduced it to the world .

What made it different from early neural network models is the fact that in these early neural network models, the self-organizing power was weak; thus this made the Kohonen Network crucial is that is composed no less than two interacting subsystems which are different in ...

Chi squared testing is a statistical test that is used to make a comparison of the data observed with the data that is expected depending on the hypothesis. The chi square test is also used to approximate if any two random variables depend on each other or not. In the social world such as the healthcare, there exist several characteristics in terms of variables like the number of male and female reporting health centers monthly. The deviation between observed data and the expected value help the researcher or investigator make informed conclusions.

A sign test is a nonparametric method used in statistics for comparison of a single sample with a hypothesized value. The test is commonly used in situations where a paired t-test is traditionally applied. In the study, a sample of n patients is used in determining the preference for central nervous system saturation. The main objective of conducting the test was to determine whether a difference in preferences between the central nervous system saturation and the time of oxygen admission existed. Sign test was explored in paired data whereby central nervous system saturation data from ten patients was collected on admission and 6 hours after ...
