| Intro to Statistics | Types of Data | Research Processes | 
|---|---|---|
| 
						
					 
					  What are parametric statistics?					 
					
					 These types of statistics are used to make valid generalizations or inferences about population parameters. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What is the level of measurement?					 
					
					 This determines which summary statistics, graphs, and analysis are possible and sensible. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What is the first step in the Process of Data Analysis?					 
					
					 The first step in this process is having a hypothesis about a population of interest. 
					 | 
						
| 
						
					 
					  What is a t-test?					 
					
					 The parametric statistic that allows you to look at the difference between group means. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What is nominal data?					 
					
					 Also known as categorical or qualitative, this level of measurement is the most basic and includes descriptions or labels. Sex is an example. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What are Descriptive Statistics?					 
					
					 The statistics that help us understand the characteristics of the sample we collected. For example, the mean age of your sample. 
					 | 
						
| 
						
					 
					  What are a non-parametric statistics?					 
					
					 These statistics makes no assumptions that the data or population have any characteristic structure. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What are the intervals between the values in the scale?					 
					
					 In ordinal data, although there is a meaningful order to the data, THIS may not be equal. For example, first versus second versus third place in a race. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What is the process of making inferences ?					 
					
					 The generation of p-values and confidence intervals are generally necessary in this process. 
					 | 
						
| 
						
					 
					  What is the assumption of homogeneity of variance (also accepted: assumptions of normality, linearity, or independence)?					 
					
					 A non-parametric statistical approach is advised when this has been violated. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What are the mean, median, and standard deviation?					 
					
					 The most precise level of measurement, interval/ratio, also known as scale, quantitative, and parametric, can be used to calculate which common basic statistics? 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What is making inferences based on p-value?					 
					
					 Statistics, research design, other research results, and clinical knowledge must all be considered when doing this. 
					 | 
						
| 
						
					 
					  What is an approximation?					 
					
					 Everything we do in statistics is this. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What is a column chart (in logical order)?					 
					
					 This is the type of graphical representation that should be used to display the results of a satisfaction survey, which include a Likert scale from very unsatisfied to very satisfied. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  What is the Scientific Process?					 
					
					 Observation, pattern, question, hypothesis, experiment and conclusion are the six steps involved in this process.
