Describing Individual Variables (Univariate Statistics)

Describing Individual Variables (Univariate Statistics)

Each discussion has a preparation section that contains statistical software exercises. You must complete these exercises before beginning the discussions each week.

This week, you will be working through the following exercises:

• Enter the data from Table 2.5 in your Statistics for the Health Sciences textbook in an Excel file.
• Save the Excel file as a .csv file and open the .csv file in JASP.
• Generate a histogram and boxplot for each variable.
• Generate a scatterplot showing the relationship between the two variables.
• Additionally, generate the following for each variable:
  • Mean.
  • Median.
  • Mode.
  • Range.
  • Standard deviation.
  • Variance.
  • Quartiles.

File Submissions

Every time you generate outputs in a statistical software exercise, you will be required to interpret and report the results. Both the Word document and the output files must be uploaded to your discussion post.

• Upload the .jasp file. Make sure you have saved your .jasp file after running your procedures to save the outputs.
• Include a separate Word document in which you interpret and report the results of the graphs or tables (summary statistics, scattergram, box-plot, and histogram) you generated. Format your document using APA style.
