18. STATISTICS 18.1 INTRODUCTION In the prevous chapter, we dscussed many a statstcal measure relatng to Unvarate dstrbuton.e. dstrbuton of one varable lke heght, weght, mark, proft, wage and so on. However, there are stuatons that demand study of more than one varable smultaneously. A busnessman may be keen to know what amount of nvestment would yeld a desred level of proft or a student may want to know whether performng better n the selecton test would enhance hs or her chance of dong well n the fnal examnaton. Wth a vew to answerng ths seres of questons, we need to study more than one varable at the same tme. Correlaton Analyss and Regresson Analyss are the two analyses that are made from a multvarate dstrbuton.e. a dstrbuton of more than one varable. In partcular when there are two varables, say x and y, we study bvarate dstrbuton. We restrct our dscusson to bvarate dstrbuton only. Correlaton analyss, t may be noted, helps us to fnd an assocaton or the lack of t between the two varables x and y. Thus f x and y stand for proft and nvestment of a frm or the marks n Statstcs and Mathematcs for a group of students, then we may be nterested to know whether x and y are assocated or ndependent of each other. The extent or amount of correlaton between x and y s provded by dfferent measures of Correlaton namely Product Moment Correlaton Coeffcent or Rank Correlaton Coeffcent or Coeffcent of Concurrent Devatons. In Correlaton analyss, we must be careful about a cause and effect relaton between the varables under consderaton because there may be stuatons where x and y are related due to the nfluence of a thrd varable although no causal relatonshp exsts between the two varables. Regresson analyss, on the other hand, s concerned wth predctng the value of the dependent varable correspondng to a known value of the ndependent varable on the assumpton of a mathematcal relatonshp between the two varables and also an average relatonshp between them. 18. BIVARIATE DATA When data are collected on two varables smultaneously, they are known as bvarate data and the correspondng frequency dstrbuton, derved from t, s known as Bvarate Frequency Dstrbuton. If x and y denote marks n Maths and Stats for a group of 30 students, then the correspondng bvarate data would be (x, y ) for 1,,. 30 where (x 1, y 1 ) denotes the marks n Mathematcs and Statstcs for the student wth seral number or Roll Number 1, (x, y ), that for the student wth Roll Number and so on and lastly (x 30, y 30 ) denotes the par of marks for the student bearng Roll Number 30. As n the case of a Unvarate Dstrbuton, we need to construct the frequency dstrbuton for bvarate data. Such a dstrbuton takes nto account the classfcaton n respect of both the varables smultaneously. Usually, we make horzontal classfcaton n respect of x and vertcal classfcaton n respect of the other varable y. Such a dstrbuton s known as Bvarate Frequency Dstrbuton or Jont Frequency Dstrbuton or Two way classfcaton of the two varables x and y.

18.3 ILLUSTRATIONS: Example 18.1: Prepare a Bvarate Frequency table for the followng data relatng to the marks n Statstcs (x) and Mathematcs (y): (15, 13), (1, 3), (, 6), (8, 3), (15, 10), (3, 9), (13, 19), (10, 11), (6, 4), (18, 14), (10, 19), (1, 8), (11, 14), (13, 16), (17, 15), (18, 18), (11, 7), (10, 14), (14, 16), (16, 15), (7, 11), (5, 1), (11, 15), (9, 4), (10, 15), (13, 1) (14, 17), (10, 11), (6, 9), (13, 17), (16, 15), (6, 4), (4, 8), (8, 11), (9, 1), (14, 11), (16, 15), (9, 10), (4, 6), (5, 7), (3, 11), (4, 16), (5, 8), (6, 9), (7, 1), (15, 6), (18, 11), (18, 19), (17, 16) (10, 14) Take mutually exclusve classfcaton for both the varables, the frst class nterval beng 0-4 for both.

Snce the frst par of marks s (15, 13) and 15 belongs to the fourth class nterval (1-16) for x and 13 belongs to the fourth class nterval for y, we put a stroke n the (4, 4)-th cell.

Startng from the above Bvarate Frequency Dstrbuton, we can obtan two types of unvarate dstrbutons whch are known as: (a) (b) Margnal dstrbuton. Condtonal dstrbuton. If we consder the dstrbuton of Statstcs marks along wth the margnal totals presented n the last column of Table 1-1, we get the margnal dstrbuton of marks n Statstcs. Smlarly, we can obtan one more margnal dstrbuton of Mathematcs marks. The followng table shows the margnal dstrbuton of marks of Statstcs. Table 18.

They would be known as margnal mean and margnal SD of Statstcs marks. Smlarly, we can obtan the margnal mean and margnal SD of Mathematcs marks. Any other statstcal measure n respect of x or y can be computed n a smlar manner. JSNR_5170389_ICAI_Busness Mathematcs_Logcal Reasonng & Statstce_Text.pdf 676 / 808
18.5 If we want to study the dstrbuton of Statstcs Marks for a partcular group of students, say for those students who got marks between 8 to 1 n Mathematcs, we come across another unvarate dstrbuton known as condtonal dstrbuton. Table 18.3 Condtonal Dstrbuton of Marks n Statstcs for Students havng Mathematcs Marks between 8 to 1 Marks No. of Students 0-4 4-8 5 8-1 4 1-16 3 16-0 1 Total 15 We may obtan the mean and SD from the above table. They would be known as condtonal mean and condtonal SD of marks of Statstcs. The same result holds for marks n Mathematcs. In partcular, f there are m classfcatons for x and n classfcatons for y, then there would be altogether (m + n) condtonal dstrbuton. 18.3 CORRELATION ANALYSIS Whle studyng two varables at the same tme, f t s found that the change n one varable s recprocated by a correspondng change n the other varable ether drectly or nversely, then the two varables are known to be assocated or correlated. Otherwse, the two varables are known to be dssocated or uncorrelated or ndependent. There are two types of correlaton. () Postve correlaton () Negatve correlaton If two varables move n the same drecton.e. an ncrease (or decrease) on the part of one varable ntroduces an ncrease (or decrease) on the part of the other varable, then the two varables are known to be postvely correlated. As for example, heght and weght yeld and ranfall, proft and nvestment etc. are postvely correlated. On the other hand, f the two varables move n the opposte drectons.e. an ncrease (or a decrease) on the part of one varable results a decrease (or an ncrease) on the part of the other varable, then the two varables are known to have a negatve correlaton. The prce and demand of an tem, the profts of Insurance Company and the number of clams t has to meet etc. are examples of varables havng a negatve correlaton. The two varables are known to be uncorrelated f the movement on the part of one varable does not produce any movement of the other varable n a partcular drecton. As for example, Shoesze and ntellgence are uncorrelated. JSNR_5170389_ICAI_Busness Mathematcs_Logcal Reasonng & Statstce_Text.pdf 677 / 808
18.6 STATISTICS 18.4 MEASURES OF CORRELATION We consder the followng measures of correlaton: (a) Scatter dagram (b) Karl Pearson s Product moment correlaton coeffcent (c) Spearman s rank correlaton co-effcent (d) Co-effcent of concurrent devatons (a) SCATTER DIAGRAM Ths s a smple dagrammatc method to establsh correlaton between a par of varables. Unlke product moment correlaton co-effcent, whch can measure correlaton only when the varables are havng a lnear relatonshp, scatter dagram can be appled for any type of correlaton lnear as well as non-lnear.e. curvlnear. Scatter dagram can dstngush between dfferent types of correlaton although t fals to measure the extent of relatonshp between the varables. Each data pont, whch n ths case a par of values (x, y ) s represented by a pont n the rectangular axes of cordnates. The totalty of all the plotted ponts forms the scatter dagram. The pattern of the plotted ponts reveals the nature of correlaton. In case of a postve correlaton, the plotted ponts le from lower left corner to upper rght corner, n case of a negatve correlaton the plotted ponts concentrate from upper left to lower rght and n case of zero correlaton, the plotted ponts would be equally dstrbuted wthout depctng any partcular pattern. The followng fgures show dfferent types of correlaton and the one to one correspondence between scatter dagram and product moment correlaton coeffcent. FIGURE 18.1 FIGURE 18.

The coeffcent of correlaton remans nvarant under a change of orgn and/or scale of the varables under consderaton dependng on the sgn of scale factors. Ths property states that f the orgnal par of varables x and y s changed to a new par of varables u and v by effectng a change of orgn and scale for both x and y.e. x a y c u and v b d where a and c are the orgns of x and y and b and d are the respectve scales and then we have bd r xy r b d u v...(18.10) r xy and r uv beng the coeffcent of correlaton between x and y and u and v respectvely, (18.10) establshed, numercally, the two correlaton coeffcents reman equal and they would have opposte sgns only when b and d, the two scales, dffer n sgn.

(c) SPEARMAN S RANK CORRELATION COEFFICIENT When we need fndng correlaton between two qualtatve characterstcs, say, beauty and ntellgence, we take recourse to usng rank correlaton coeffcent.

As compared to product moment correlaton coeffcent, rank correlaton coeffcent s easer to compute, t can also be advocated to get a frst hand mpresson about the correlaton between a par of varables.

Regresson analyss plays a very mportant role n the feld of every human actvty. A busnessman may be keen to know what would be hs estmated proft for a gven level of nvestment on the bass of the past records. Smlarly, an outgong student may lke to know her chance of gettng a frst class n the fnal Unversty Examnaton on the bass of her performance n the college selecton test. When there are two varables x and y and f y s nfluenced by x.e. f y depends on x, then we get a smple lnear regresson or smple regresson. y s known as dependent varable or regresson or explaned varable and x s known as ndependent varable or predctor or explanator. In the prevous examples snce proft depends on nvestment or performance n the Unversty Examnaton s dependent on the performance n the college selecton test, proft or performance n the Unversty Examnaton s the dependent varable and nvestment or performance n the selecton test s the In-dependent varable. In case of a smple regresson model f y depends on x, then the regresson lne of y on x n gven by y a + bx (18.14) Here a and b are two constants and they are also known as regresson parameters. Furthermore, b s also known as the regresson coeffcent of y on x and s also denoted by b yx. We may defne JSNR_5170389_ICAI_Busness Mathematcs_Logcal Reasonng & Statstce_Text.pdf 697 / 808

(0.743, 0.657) 18.8 REVIEW OF ANALYSIS So far we have dscussed the dfferent measures of correlaton and also how to ft regresson lnes applyng the method of Least Squares. It s obvous that we take recourse to correlaton analyss when we are keen to know whether two varables under study are assocated or correlated and f correlated, what s the strength of correlaton. The best measure of correlaton s provded by Pearson s correlaton coeffcent. However, one severe lmtaton of ths correlaton coeffcent, as we have already dscussed, s that t s applcable only n case of a lnear relatonshp between the two varables. If two varables x and y are ndependent or uncorrelated then obvously the correlaton coeffcent between x and y s zero. However, the converse of ths statement s not necessarly true.e. f the correlaton coeffcent, due to Pearson, between two varables comes out to be zero, then we cannot conclude that the two varables are ndependent. All that we can conclude s that no lnear relatonshp exsts between the two varables. Ths, however, does not rule out the exstence of some non lnear relatonshp between the two varables. For example, f we consder the followng pars of values on two varables x and y. (, 4), ( 1, 1), (0, 0), (1, 1) and (, 4), then cov (x, y) ( + 4) + ( 1+1) + (0 0) + (1 1) + ( 4) 0 as x 0 JSNR_5170389_ICAI_Busness Mathematcs_Logcal Reasonng & Statstce_Text.pdf 710 / 808
18.39 Thus r xy 0 Ths does not mean that x and y are ndependent. In fact the relatonshp between x and y s y x. Thus t s always wser to draw a scatter dagram before reachng concluson about the exstence of correlaton between a par of varables. There are some cases when we may fnd a correlaton between two varables although the two varables are not causally related. Ths s due to the exstence of a thrd varable whch s related to both the varables under consderaton. Such a correlaton s known as spurous correlaton or non-sense correlaton. As an example, there could be a postve correlaton between producton of rce and that of ron n Inda for the last twenty years due to the effect of a thrd varable tme on both these varables. It s necessary to elmnate the nfluence of the thrd varable before computng correlaton between the two orgnal varables. Correlaton coeffcent measurng a lnear relatonshp between the two varables ndcates the amount of varaton of one varable accounted for by the other varable. A better measure for ths purpose s provded by the square of the correlaton coeffcent, Known as coeffcent of determnaton. Ths can be nterpreted as the rato between the explaned varance to total varance.e. Explaned varance r Total varance Thus a value of 0.6 for r ndcates that (0.6) 100% or 36 per cent of the varaton has been accounted for by the factor under consderaton and the remanng 64 per cent varaton s due to other factors. The coeffcent of non-determnaton s gven by (1 r ) and can be nterpreted as the rato of unexplaned varance to the total varance. Coeffcent of non-determnaton (1 r ) Regresson analyss, as we have already seen, s concerned wth establshng a functonal relatonshp between two varables and usng ths relatonshp for makng future projecton. Ths can be appled, unlke correlaton for any type of relatonshp lnear as well as curvlnear. The two lnes of regresson concde.e. become dentcal when r 1 or 1 or n other words, there s a perfect negatve or postve correlaton between the two varables under dscusson. If r 0 Regresson lnes are perpendcular to each other. SUMMARY? The change n one varable s recprocated by a correspondng change n the other varable ether drectly or nversely, then the two varables are known to be assocated or correlated. There are two types of correlaton. () Postve correlaton () Negatve correlaton?

18.41 In regresson analyss, we are concerned wth the estmaton of one varable for gven value of another varable (or for a gven set of values of a number of varables) on the bass of an average mathematcal relatonshp between the two varables (or a number of varables). In case of a smple regresson model f y depends on x, then the regresson lne of y on x n gven by y a + b, here a and b are two constants and they are also known as regresson parameters. Furthermore, b s also known as the regresson coeffcent of y on x and s also denoted by b yx The method of least squares s solvng the equatons of regresson lnes The normal equatons are y na + bx x y ax + bx Solvng the normal equatons b cov(x y ) x S r.s.s x y Sx The regresson coeffcents reman unchanged due to a shft of orgn but change due to a shft of scale.
