2 3.1 Central Tendency Most variables show a distinct tendency to group around a central value. When people talk about an average value or the middle value or the most frequent value, they are talking informally about the mean, median, and mode three measures of central tendency. (4#)3%* =0*>?&83*,
3 >9AA4%$*B3E&6&)&"65 The central tendency is the extent to which all the data values group around a or central value. The variation is the amount of dispersion or scattering of values The shape is the pattern of the distribution of values from the lowest value to the highest value. (4#)3%* =0*>?&83*=

23 Summary Characteristics The more the data are spread out, the greater the range, variance, and standard deviation. The more the data are concentrated, the smaller the range, variance, and standard deviation. If the values are all the same (no variation), all these measures will be zero.

31 3.3 Exploring Numerical Data Sections 3.1 and 3.2 discuss measures of central tendency, variation, and shape. You can also visualize the distribution of the values for a numerical variable by computing the quartiles and five-number summary and constructing aboxplot. Quartile " Quartiles split the ranked data into 4 segments with an equal number of values per segment +-X +-X +-X +-X i. i, i= " The first quartile, Q 1, is the value for which 25% of the observations are smaller and 75% are larger " Q 2 is the same as the median (50% of the observations are smaller and 50% are larger) " Only 25% of the observations are greater than the third quartile (4#)3%* =0*>?&83*=.
