Part 1 - Find Measures

The best place to start when working to compute probabilities, confidence intervals, or even hypothesis tests, is to get some basic measures from your sample.

Measures for Proportions

In asking you to find measures for proportions, you'll need to first assemble somequalitativedata. Examples include:

  • What type of residence do you occupy?
  • What is your most thrown away item?

Once you have chosen the qualitative data you'll be studying, you need to frame it as aproportionresponse, which means you'll need to focus on a single response. If the question is "What type of residence do you occupy?", I can choose the single response to be "House" and now I look at the proportion of subjects that reside in a house from the sample.

Measures for Means

Most of the data we collected was quantitative, anything with a number or a percent.

Part 2 - State Measures and Computations

  1. State the qualitative data you are choosing to analyze. Then, give the point estimate for the population proportion. (Please use complete sentences.)
  2. State the quantitative data you are choosing to analyze. Then, give the point estimate for the population mean as well as the sample standard deviation. (Please use complete sentences.)
  3. Compute the 90th percentile for the quantitative variable you selected. Give the value as an interpretation in sentence form. (See Assessment Guidance for help)
  4. Compute an "at least" probability for the quantitative variable you selected. Give the value as an interpretation in sentence form. (See Assessment Guidance for help)
  5. Compute the 95% confidence interval for your sample proportion. Give the interval in sentence form (See Assessment Guidance for help)
