Resource summary
Research Results
Frequency distributions
Indicates the number of participants who receive a score on a variable
Pie chart
Bar graph
Used to compare group means or percentages
Frequency polygons
Uses a line to represent frequencies
Used in interval or ratio scales
Histograms
Uses bars to display a frequency distribution for a quantitative variable
Descriptive statistics
Central tendency
Mean
X bar or M
Median
mdn
Mode
Good for nominal scales
Tells us what the sample as a whole is like
Variability
Characterizes the amount of spread in a distribution of scores
Standard deviation
The average deviation of scores from the mean
Variance
The standard deviation is derived from this
Range
Correlation coefficients
Statistic that describes how strongly variables are related
Pearson product moment correlation coefficient
Used when both variables have interval or ratio scale properties
Provides information about strength and direction
Restriction of range
When individuals in sample are similar
Can only find linear relationships
Effect size
Strength of association between variables
Squared correlation coefficient
The percent of shared variance between two variables
Correlation = .7, therefore % = 49%
Cohen's D
The magnitude of the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable
Regression equations
Used to predict one's score when that person's score on another test is known
Multiple correlation
Combines predictor variables to increase the accuracy of a prediction
Partial correlation
Provides a way of statistically controlling third variables in non experiments
