- 2. Frequency Distribution Frequency distributions are visual displays that organise and present frequency counts so that the information can be interpreted more easily. The frequency distribution indicates how the data set is partitioned among several categories of classes by listing all categories along with the corresponding number ( frequency ) of data values of each of them .
- 3. MANAGEMENT DATA The frequency distribution will indicate how often each value in the scale was used by the participants in their responses or in measurements of their behavior. Frequency distributions can show absolute frequencies or relative frequencies, such as proportions or percentages . A frequency distribution of data can be shown in a table or graph. Some common methods of showing frequency distributions include frequency tables, histograms or bar charts.
- 5. Qualitative or Categorical Frequency Distribution It is a frequency distribution table where the data are grouped according to some qualitative characteristics; data are grouped into non- numerical categories. Categorical frequency distribution is used for data that can be placed in specific categories, such as nominal- or ordinal- level data. For example, data such as political affiliation, religious affiliation, or major field of study would use categorical frequency distributions.
- 6. Qualitative or Categorical Frequency Distribution Frequency Table of Highest Degree Held by CEOs of 40 Large Corporations For categorical data, each category and its frequency are shown, as in this frequency table, which summarizes the highest degree held by executives in 40 large corporations
- 7. Quantitative Frequency Distribution It is a frequency distribution table where the data are grouped according to some numerical or quantitative characteristics . EXAMPLE : A frequency table for the ages of women visiting the library during a wine-and-cheese book-signing event.
- 10. Parts of a Statistical Table
- 11. Parts of a Statistical Table a) The table heading includes the table number and the title of the table.
- 12. Parts of a Statistical Table b) The body is the main part of the table that contains the information or data that was respectively collected
- 13. Parts of a Statistical Table c) Row classifiers are the classification of categories describing the data and is usually found at the left most side of the tab.
- 14. Parts of a Statistical Table d) Column header is the designations or identifications of the information contained in a column, usually found at the top most of the column.
- 15. FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION TABLE Example 2. Construct a frequency distribution table of the blood types of 30 patients and make an interpretation. A B O O AB O AB A A B B O A B O B O O B A
- 16. FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION TABLE Solution: Table 3 Distribution of Patients According to Blood Types Interpretation Table 3 shows that most patients have an “O” blood type (n = 12) while thefewest patients have an “AB” blood type (n = 3)
- 18. Solution: Step 1. Using Microsoft Excel, encode the raw data. Step 2. Save the encoded data under .csv.
- 19. Step 3. Open the JASP Software
- 20. Step 4. Open the data file
- 21. Step 5: Under Descriptives, move Sex, Age, Course, FMI, Year level and School of Origin to Variables box and Check the Frequency tables box
- 22. RESULTS OF THE RAW DATA RUN USING JASP AND EXCEL
- 25. Out of thirty participants, both male (n = 15) and female (n = 15) have the same number of participants, sixty percent of the participants aged below 20 years old (n =18) while forty percent aged 20 years old and above (n = 12). When categorized according to course, each course has nearly thirty-four percent (n = 10). There are around forty percent of the participants belong to high family monthly income (n = 13) while roughly fifty seven percent of the participants belong to low family monthly income (n = 17). When categorized as year level, approximately Interpretation of the Frequency tables
