For this SPSS lab you will be calculating the 3 measures of central tendency and the standard deviation in Excel on the 2 variables below. Story: As an adoring own of two guinea pigs, Squeakers and Mr. Fuzzy, you are interested in their communication ability. Thus, you have measured the number of squeaks per day and the frequency of those squeaks over a 30 day period. Here is your data: Number of Squeaks: 53 14 37 32 12 56 32 15 36 32 14 53 82 53 78 12 10 4 78 92 43 27 54 10 33 32 49 74 36 76 Frequency of Squeaks (in khz): 13 14 11 12 10 16 13 12 10 9 13 12 14 11 13 12 12 10 10 14 12 16 13 12 13 12 14 13 12 11 Calculate these and answer the following questions: 1. Which variable has more spread? 2. Which variable is more likely to be skewed (have an outlier)? 3. Now take the first variable and replace the first value with 500. Recalculate the 3 measures of central tendency and standard deviation. Which values changed? Which ones didn't? Why
