Numbers, Measurement and Numerical Relationships

In quantitative research, dependent, independent and relevant variables are describe

in numeral form.

Some variables may be easily defined or measured; other are more abstract and difficult

to define.

Some variables may be easily defined or measured; other are more abstract and difficult

to define.

Slide 3 of 85

Different measurement use the same numerals (i.e., 1, 2, 3, 4 . . .)But, the numerals carry different information and carry different information and symbolize different phenomena across scales (i.e., 1 = Catholic, 2 = Mormon . . . or 1 = Agree, 2 = Disagree, or 1 = correct, 0 = incorrect)

ASSESSMENT AND ANALYSIS

Slide 111 of 85

Assessment and Analysis…

The type of assessment measures determinants both the extent to which the data can be compared and the type of statistical analyses that can ba applied to these comparisons.

Slide 112 of 85

Metric measures

• Allow the full range of mathematical procedures to be applied.

• These categories are measured by the percent that complete the task, how long it takes to complete the tasks, ratios of success to failure to complete the task, time spent on errors, the number of errors, rating scale of satisfactions, number of times user seems frustrated, etc

Slide 113 of 85

• Metric measure

Slide 114 of 85

Non-Metric Measure

• Non Metric variables are intrinsic

Slide 115 of 85

Slide 116 of 85

• Metric variables have numbers associated with them. For example: Team Members in a Call Center can be evaluated by how many calls they take per day. How many minutes they spend on average on those calls. The difficulty level of the calls they took, etc. Non Metric variables are intrinsic. The weather can affect an outdoor wedding, that is a non metric variable. In the record business, the non metric variable of illegal downloads affects the bottom line for the record producer. In this case the number of downloads is an unknown.

Slide 117 of 85

Methods of Statistical Analysis

Parametrico Parametric methods deal with the estimation of

population parameters (like the mean).

Non-parametrico non-parametric are distribution free methods.

They rely on ordering (ranking) of observations.

Slide 118 of 85

If data is normally distributed then you can apply parametric tests that compare the means among the groups and if data is not normally distributed then you can apply non parametric test that compare the median among the groups.

• Statistical Analyses• Metric Data• Data Analysis• Variables – The characteristic that is being

studied.• Inferential Techniques

Slide 120 of 85

• Interval Point

• Histogram

• Scattergram

• Probability

• Correlation Matrix

Slide 121 of 85

What is (M)

• “M” is means “means of data, scores”• expresses the mean difference between two

groups in standard deviation units.• Is a qualitative measure describing the

characteristic of a population and therefore, it is a parameter.

Means formula

What is (SD)

• means Standard Deviation• is a widely used measurement of variability or

diversity used instatistics and probability theory. It shows how much variation or "dispersion" there is from the "average" (mean, or expected/budgeted value).

• standard deviation of a statistical population, data set, orprobability distribution is the square root of its variance.

Correlation and Regression Analysis

• Correlation and regression analysis are related in the sense that both deal with relationships among variables. The correlation coefficient is a measure of linear association between two variables. Values of thecorrelation coefficient are always between -1 and +1.

Slide 126 of 85

Chi-square Statistic

• A measurement of how expectations compare to results. The data used in calculating a chi square statistic must be random, raw, mutually exclusive, drawn from independent variables and be drawn from a large enough sample.

• A statistical test used to compare expected data with what we collected.(collected vs. expected no.s)
