Tabulation - Table forms with clear labels of rows and columns. Charts and
graphs are useful when communicating trends and patterns.
Summary statistics - Use of frequency distributions, averages, measures of
dispersion, or correlations.
Descriptive analysis - May involve cross-tabulations, comparison of
variables, analysis of sub- groups within the data, or how variables change
over time.
Statistical analysis - These methods include calculation of confidence
intervals and statistical testing of differences.
The nurse identifies that the author conducted a single dependent variable
analysis, referred to as __________ analysis.
The study was conducted to determine if a correlation existed between two
variables within the study, so the nurse was able to make the distinction
that a __________ analysis was used.
Based on the assumption the data distribution was in a normal bell-shape,
the nurse determined a __________ test was utilized. Ans: Inferential
Bivariate
Parametric
