STATISTICAL DESCRIPTION
OF DATA 1 Chapter
STATISTICS is derived from
Latin Word 'STATUS'
German Word ‘STATISTIK’
Italian Word ‘STATISTA'
French Word ‘STATISTIQUE'
DEFINITION of statistics
1. SINGULAR SENSE It is a scientific method of Collecting. Analyzing & Presenting data and
finally drawing Statistical Inferences. It is also known as “Science of Counting” or “Science of
Average”
2. PLURAL SENSE It is the collection of information, Qualitative as well as Quantitative, with a
view of having statistical analysis.
LIMITATION OF STATISTICS:
1. It deals with the aggregate.
2. It is concerned with quantitative data. (Qualitative information has to be converted into
quantitative data by providing an attribute.
3. Future projections can only be made under a specific set of conditions.
4. The theory of statistical inferences is built upon random sampling.
DATA: Quantitative Information of some particular characteristics which can be either Quantitative or
Qualitative
1. QUANTITATIVE CHARACTERISTICS:
Known as VARIABLE which can be DISCRETE or CONTINUOUS
Eg. of Discrete Variable: No. of Petals in a flower, No. of misprint in a book, No. of road
accident in a locality.
Eg. of Continuous Variable: Height, Weight, Sales, Profit

PRESENTATION :
Presenting the data in words through Paragraphs. Though it is simple to
understand but sometimes becomes dull and monotonous.
2. TABULAR
PRESENTATION :
It is considered as the Best Method of presentation as data is presented
in a neat, concise and condensed form eliminating unnecessary details. It
facilitates comparison between rows and columns. Complicated date can
also be represented using tabulation. It is must for diagrammatic
representation.

MEASURES OF CENTRAL
TENDENCY AND DISPERSION 2 Chapter
Measure of central tendency may be defined as the tendency of a given set of observation to cluster
around a single value.
Dispersion of a given set may be defined as the amount of deviation of the observation, usually, from
an appropriate measure of central tendency.
Absolute measure of dispersion are dependent on units of the variable under consideration whereas
the relative measures of dispersion are unit free. For comparing two or more distributions, we use
relative measure of dispersion.

POINTS TO REMEMBER:
1. AM, Median and Mode are affected by shift in origin as well as by change in scale. However
Range, Standard Deviation, Mean Deviation and Quartile Deviation are not affected by shift
in origin but are only affected by change in scale.

7. Q.D.Q.D. xby =
2. If all the values are same, then
→ The value of central tendencies (AM , GM , HM , Partition values) will be the same value
→ The absolute measure and relative measure of Dispersion (Range, MD,QD,SD and their
respective coefficients) will be ZERO.
→ There will be no Mode as there is no highest frequency.
3. ARITHMETIC MEAN:
• It is the best measure of central tendency as it rigidly defined, based on all observations,
easy to comprehend, simple to calculate and amenable to mathematical properties.
• The Algebric sum of deviation of a set of observations from their AM is zero.
• It is very much affected by sampling fluctuations.
• It can not be computed in case of distribution having open end classification.
4. GEOMETRIC MEAN:
• It is used in formulation of Index Numbers.
• It can not be used when the values are negative or zero.
• Log G.M. = nLogxLogxLogxLogx n /)..........( 321 +++
• If z = xy, then G.M. of z = (G.M. of x) × (G.M. of y)
• If z = x/y, then G.M. of z = (G.M. of x) ÷ (G.M. of y)
5. HARMONIC MEAN:
• It is the reciprocal of A.M. of the reciprocal of the numbers
• It can not be used if any observation is zero.
• It is useful to find averages if the observations are in ratios (E.g. Average of Different
speeds)

6. MODE
• It is the most frequent value of the given observations.
• It is not uniquely defined and can have multiple values.
• If all values are same, then there is no mode.
7. PARTITION VALUES:
• It is most appropriate for open end classification.
• It can be graphically computed through Ogive Curves.
• Quartiles divides the total observations into four equal parts. There are three quartiles.
First Quartile or Lower Quartile is denoted by Q1; Second Quartile or median is denoted
by Q2; and third quartile or upper quartile is denoted by Q3.
Similarly Deciles divides the total observations in ten equal parts. There are nine Deciles
represented as D1, D2, D3,…..D9.
Similarly Percentiles or centiles divides the total observations in hundred equal parts.
There are ninty nine Percentiles represented as P1, P2, P3,…..P99.
• Partition values are not affected by extreme values.
8. MEDIAN
• It is rigidly defined and easy to comprehend.
• It is most appropriate measure of central tendency in case of open end classification.
• It always lie between Mean and Mode
• For a moderately skewed data Mean – Mode = 3(Mean – Median)
• It is not based on all the observation and can not be used for further mathematical
treatments.
9. RANGE
• It is quickest to compute as it only based on extreme values.
• It is generally applied in quality control.
• It is highly affected by extreme values.
• For a grouped frequency distribution, range is defined as the difference between the two
extreme class boundaries
• Since it is based on only two observation, it is not regarded as an ideal measure of
dispersion
10. QUARTILE DEVIATION / SEMI INTER QUARTILE RANGE
• It is the best measure of dispersion for open end classification.
• It is based on the central fifty percent of the observations.

11. STANDARD DEVIATION
• It is defined as the root mean square deviation when the deviations are taken from the
AM of the observations.
• It is the Best measure of Dispersion.
• It is less affected by sampling fluctuations.
• It is used in various statistical analysis like computation of Correlation and regression
coefficients.
• The standard deviations of ‘n’ natural numbers is 12
1n 2 −
• For any two numbers, standard deviation is always half of the range.
• When all the values are same, standard deviation is Zero.
12. COEFFICIENT OF VARIATION (CV)
• It is useful in comparing the consistency in the observations
13. MEAN DEVIATION
• It is defined as the arithmetic mean of the absolute deviations of the observations from
an appropriate measure of central tendency.
• The value of Mean Deviation is minimum when calculated from Median.
• It is based on all observations.
14. CRITERIA FOR IDEAL MEASURE OF CENTRAL TENDENCY AND
MEASURE OF DISPERSION
• It should be properly and unambiguously defined.
• It should be easy to comprehend.
• It should be simple to compute.
• It should be based on all observations.

CORRELATION AND REGRESSION 3 Chapter
CORRELATION:
Establishing a relation between bi-variate data or multivariate data.
Denoted by ‘r’. It is a unit free measure.
POINTS TO REMEMBER:
• 11 ≤≤− r
• If r = – 1 , correlation between two variables is said to be perfectly negative
• If – 1 < r < 0 , correlation between two variables is said to be negative.
• If r = 0 , there is No Linear correlation between two variables
• If 0 < r < 1 , correlation between two variables is said to be positive.
• If r = 1 , correlation between two variables is said to be perfectly positive
If two variables move in the same direction i.e. an increase (or decrease) on the part of one variable
introduces an increase (or decrease) on the part of other variable, then the two variables are known to
be positively correlated.
However, If two variables move in the opposite direction i.e. an increase (or decrease) on the part of
one variable introduces a decrease (or an increase) on the part of other variable, then the two
variables are known to be negatively correlated.
The two variables are known to be uncorrelated if the movement on the part of one variable does
not produce any movement of the other variable in a particular direction.

METHODS OF COMPUTATION:
1. Scatter Diagram
Can be applied for any type of correlation : Linear as well as non – linear or curvilinear.
However this method fails to measure the extent of relationship between the variables.
r = – 1 – 1 < r < 0 r = + 1 0 < r < +1 r = 0
2. Karl Pearson’s correlation / Product Moment Correlation Coefficient.
Best measure of correlation.
Applicable only in case of a linear relationship between the two variables.

4. Coefficient of concurrent Deviations
A very simple and casual method of finding correlation when we are not serious about
the magnitude of the two variables.
r = ( )
m
m2c −±± ; where m = n – 1
NOTE:
1. If there is a linear relation between two variables, then correlation coefficient will either be
Perfectly positive or Perfectly Negative depending upon the coefficient of variables.
If y = a + bx or y = – a + bx , then the value of ‘r’ shall be +1
If y = a – bx or y = – a – bx , then the value of ‘r’ shall be –1
E.g. If y = 3 + 2x , in this case the correlation coefficient between x and y shall be +1
E.g. If y = – 3 + 2x , in this case the correlation coefficient between x and y shall be +1
E.g. If y = 3 – 2x , in this case the correlation coefficient between x and y shall be –1
E.g. If y = – 3 – 2x , in this case the correlation coefficient between x and y shall be –1
2. Correlation coefficient is neither affected by a shift in origin nor by change in scale except a sign.
E.g. If r (x,y) is the correlation between variables x and y, then
r(u,v) = r(x,y) if u = ± a + bx and v = ± c + dx or u = ± a – bx and v = ± c – dx
r(u,v) = – r(x,y) if u = ± a + bx and v = ± c – dx or u = ± a – bx and v = ± c + dx
Mathematically ),(),( yxrdb
bdvur =
E.g. Correlation coefficient between x and y is given to be 0.56
Case 1: u = 2 + 3x & v = 5 + 2y Correlation between u and v will be 0.56
Case 2: u = – 2 + 3x & v = 5 + 2y Correlation between u and v will be 0.56
Case 3: u = – 2 + 3x & v = – 5 + 2y Correlation between u and v will be 0.56
Case 4: u = 2 – 3x & v = 5 – 2y Correlation between u and v will be 0.56
Case 5: u = 2 – 3x & v = – 5 – 2y Correlation between u and v will be 0.56
Case 6: u = 2 + 3x & v = 5 – 2y Correlation between u and v will be – 0.56
Case 7: u = – 2 + 3x & v = 5 – 2y Correlation between u and v will be – 0.56
Case 8: u = – 2 – 3x & v = 5 + 2y Correlation between u and v will be – 0.56

• If r < 0, then xyb & yxb < 0
• Coefficient of Determination (Percentage of variation accounted for) = r 2
• Coefficient of Non-Determination (Percentage of variation unaccounted for) = 1 – r2
• Coefficient of Alienation = 21 r−
• Standard Error (S.E.) = N

• Probable Error (P.E) = 0.6745 S.E.
• If r > 6 P.E., r is considered to be significant, otherwise r will be considered to be
insignifanct.
• Population Correlation Coefficient Range = r + P.E.
• If one of the regression coefficient is greater than 1, then other will be less than 1, such that
their multiplication can not exceed 1.
• Regression co-efficient is not affected by shift in origin but are affected by change in scale.

• Two regression equations are Non – Reversable.
However they becomes identical when r = + 1
They become perpendicular when r = 0
• If two variables x and y are independent or uncorrelated, then obviously the correlation
coefficient between x and y is zero. However, the converse may not be necessarily true. i.e. if
correlation coefficient between two variables comes out to be zero, we can only conclude that
there is no linear relation between two variables, however there may exist a non-linear relation
between them.

SKEWNESS :
When distribution is not symmetrical, it is said to be asymmetrical or skewed. Measures of skewness
helps us to know the direction of the variation.
If the distribution is positively skewed, the frequency of the distribution are spread over the greater
range of values on the right side.
If the distribution is Negatively skewed, the frequency of the distribution are spread over the greater
range of values on the Left side.
Measure of skewness :
Absolute measure of Skewness = Mean – Mode
Relative measure of Skewness
Karl Pearson's coefficient of Skewness = Deviation Standard
ModeMean −
MOMENTS :
The moments are used to describe the various characteristics of frequency distribution like central
tendency, variation, skewness and kurtosis.
The arithmetic mean of the various powers of these deviations in any distribution are called the
moments of the distribution

Second Moment npq m σ2
Third Moment npq(q – p) m 0
Fourth Moment 3(npq)2 + npq(1–6pq) 3m2 + m 3σ4
KURTOSIS :
Kurtosis refers to degree of flatness or peakedness in the region about mode of frequency curve.
If the curve is more peaked than normal, it is called Leptokurtic. If the curve is normal, it is called
Mesokurtic. If the curve is more flat than normal, it is called Platokurtic.
The most important measure of kurtosis is the value of the coefficient of 2β .
The value of 2β for a normal curve is 3.
The greater the value of 2β , the more peaked is the distribution.
