Question
Match each item in Column A with its corresponding definition from Column B.
Correlation Coefficient. When more observation lie to the right of the mean, the longer tail of the distribution extends to the left. Binomial distribution Non-numeric data. Coding. Difference between the maximum and minimum values in a data set. Continuous data. Statistical measure, which expresses the average deviation about the mean in the original units of the random variable. Standard normal probability distribution. The upper and lower limits of each class interval. Class boundary. Chance / likelihood of an event occurring. Regression. Used in prediction Negative skewness. A normal probability distribution, which has its mean as zero and the standard deviation as 1. Standard deviation. Manipulation of variables under controlled conditions. Cumulative frequency distribution. Quantitative data concerning a parameter in which all measured values are possible. Procedure of classifying the answers to a question into meaningful categories. The probability distribution that gives the probability of x successes in n trials when the probability of success is p for each trial of a binomial experiment. A frequency distribution showing how many observations lie below or above certain values. Asymmetrical and points in the negative direction. A random variable whose observation can take on only specific values, usually only an integer (whole numbers) values. Accomplished by dividing the population into groups – usually geographically. Graphical plot of the points of the dependent variables only. A measure that indicates the extent of association between two variables and varies from -1 to +1.Explanation / Answer
The definitions can be matched as below:
Correlation Coefficient - A measure that indicates the extent of association between two variables and varies from -1 to +1.
Binomial distribution - The probability distribution that gives the probability of x successes in n trials when the probability of success is p for each trial of a binomial experiment.
Coding - Manipulation of variables under controlled conditions
Continuous data - Quantitative data concerning a parameter in which all measured values are possible.
Standard normal probability distribution - A normal probability distribution, which has its mean as zero and the standard deviation as 1
Class boundary - The upper and lower limits of each class interval.
Regression - Used in prediction
Negative skewness - When more observation lie to the right of the mean, the longer tail of the distribution extends to the left
Standard deviation - Statistical measure, which expresses the average deviation about the mean in the original units of the random variable
Cumulative frequency distribution - A frequency distribution showing how many observations lie below or above certain values
