1 Data Analysis Associate.Prof.Dr.Ratana Sapbamrer Department of Community Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Chiang Mai University

2 Topic Outline Data analysis for descriptive statistics (qualitative data) Data analysis for descriptive statistics (quantitative data) Data analysis for analytical/inferential statistics Methods for normal distribution test

3 Review of knowledge Statistics Types of Statistics Descriptive Analytical/Inferential Describe features of data (1) make assumptions about the population at large (2) make predictions about what might happen in the future. Testing hypothesis Independent VS Dependent variables 3 Predictor VS Outcome

4 Review of knowledge Scale of Data Qualitative/ Categorical Quantitative/ Numerical Nominal Ordinal Interval Ratio

5 Data analysis for descriptive statistics

6 Data analysis for descriptive statistics in different scales Scale Qualitative Quantitative Nominal Ordinal Interval Ratio Frequency distribution Frequency Percentage 6 Central tendency Dispersion

7 Data analysis for Descriptive statistics (qualitative data) Qaulitative data Nominal Ordinal Frequency distribution Frequency Distribution table Pie chart One way table Two way table Percentage Bar chart Line chart
