Mean correct answers The average Median correct answers The middle value in a list of numbers Mode correct answers The number that is repeated the most; the most frequent value Range correct answers The highest minus the lowest score and a gross measure of variability. Exclusive range is the highest score minus the lowest score. Inclusive range is the highest score minus the lowest score plus 1. Standard Deviation correct answers A measure of how spread out numbers are. The formula: the square root of the variance; measures variability and separates normal variation from true variation; the average deviation from the mean. The lower the number, the less the variation, the closer to the mean Variance correct answers The average of the squared differences from the Mean; the average squared deviation from the mean. It measures the dispersion of the data set. Qualitative data correct answers Data that approximates or characterizes but does not measure the attributes, characteristics, properties, etc. of a thing or phenomenon. It describes. Quantitative data correct answers Data that can be quantified and verified, and is amenable to statistical manipulation. It defines. Valid correct answers Measures what its supposed to measure Reliable correct answers Produces similar results under consistent conditions Descriptive statistics correct answers Mathematical quantities (such as mean, median, standard deviation) that summarize and interpret some of the properties of a set of data (sample) but do not infer the properties of the population from which the sample was drawn. Inferential statistics correct answers Mathematical methods that employ probability theory for deducing (inferring) the properties of a population from the analysis of the properties of a data sample drawn from it. Flow chart correct answers A diagram of the sequence of movements or actions of people or things involved in a complex system or activity Run chart correct answers A line graph of data plotted over time. Use to find trends or patterns in the process. Cannot tell you if a process is stable. Sampling correct answers A tool that is used to indicate how much data to collect and how often it should be collected.
