1 Statistics Day 4 Displaying Categorical Data

2 Do Now Act question ACT #9,10,13,14

3 Quick review Qualitative/Categorical vs Quantitative 1) Preferred TV show 2) Number of tried cases 3) Nationality 4) Height 5) Cost 6) Race number Categorical Quantitative Categorical

4 Agenda ALL ABOUT DISPLAYING CATEGORICAL DATA If you did your homework and read the chapter, you will not be lost Frequency tables and Relative Frequency Bar charts Pie Charts Contingency Tables Segmented Bar Charts

5 Different Categorical Displays Let’s take a look at our class data again… Which of the variables are categorical?

6 Displaying Categorical Data How many students are Mexican? How did you determine this? Is there an easier way to present this data to get at the information quicker?

7 Frequency Tables Frequency Table: Showing the frequency (how many times) a category is chosen Relative Frequency Table: Showing the category’s frequency in percentage (relative to the total) [Distribution: shows the variables and their frequencies (how the data is distributed)]

8 Frequency and Relative Frequency Tables

9 Contingency Tables Still measures frequency distribution or relative frequency It represents multiple categorical variables with the total

10 Marginal Distribution Marginal distributions: the sum totals in the table in a table with 2 variables looking at the totals (in the margins) of a single variable

11 Conditional Distribution Conditional Distribution: shows the distribution for a sub-population that has a characteristic you are interested in (it’s selective information in the middle)

12 Importance of Relativity 1) What percent of the class is male? 2) What percent of the class is conservative? 3) What percent of males is conservative? 4) What percent of all students in the class are males who are conservatives? 5) What percent of all females in the class are conservative? Liberal? Moderate? 6) What percent of all males in the class are conservative? Liberal? Moderate? 7) Are there more males or females who are liberal? Moderate? Conservative? Does this represent the data?

13 Independence Independence: There is no association between the variables - they do not affect each other How can we tell? Use the relative contingency table Politics in Intro Stats LiberalModerateConservativeTotal Female3536677 Male504421115 Total858027192 Is gender independent of political orientation? If I were to put the names in a hat and pull one out, would the persons gender affect the likelihood of the person being a certain orientation?

14 Bar Charts, Relative Frequency Bar Chart, and Pie Charts A way to graphically show frequency and relative frequency

15 Segmented Bar Chart Shows multiple categorical variables

16 Issues with Graphs Area Principle- be careful not to misrepresent -the area should be proportional

17 Issues with Graphs Simpson’s Paradox: a misrepresentation of averages- when the combined average shows a different trend than the individualized groups of data TeacherTest 1 ScoreTest 2 ScoreTotal(%) (Mr Selan) /50= /200= (Ms Shein) /100= /20=

18 Activity A random sample of 16 Pritzker kids were surveyed on their likes and dislikes The data is provided In pairs, decide on what you want to compare/know/study about this sample Create two different displays of the provided data Frequency/relative frequency tables Pie charts Bar charts Contingency tables Segmented Bar charts
