Biostatistics, Chapters I & II

________ Sampling: dividing the population into groups by a category.

________: categorical variables but with a clear ordering (small /medium /large)

________ are any points that lie outside of the LF and UF.

________: complete collection of all measurements or data that are being considered.

________: two+ categories, but no intrinsic ordering (ex: blood type)

________: a numeric variable for which we can list the possible values (think: integers)

Continuous Variable: a(n) ________ that is measured on a continuous scale (temperature, height)

________ are marked by small circles.

Bar Charts: frequency distribution for ________.

complete collection of all measurements or data that are being considered

sub-collecion of members selected from a population

each member of the population has the same change of being included, and samples are chosen independently

dividing the population into groups by a category

divide the population into groups (strata) based on one+ classification criteria

some members of the population have a higher chance to be selected than others

categorical variables but with a clear ordering (small/medium/large)

a numeric variable that is measured on a continuous scale (temperature, height)

frequency distribution for categorical variables

frequency distribution but no spaces

The average of the observations

(n + 1)th largest value

average of (n/2)th largest value and (n/(2) + 1)th
