Enumeration Data Analysis

This document discusses enumeration data analysis (EDA), which analyzes frequencies of qualitative data categories. EDA uses chi-square tests to determine if sample distributions match hypotheses or if variables are independent. The steps of EDA are outlined, including stating hypotheses, determining significance levels and degrees of freedom, calculating chi-square values, and making conclusions. Three examples applying EDA to proportions, cross-tabulated data, and random variables are provided.

ENUMERATION DATA ANALYSIS

Expressed in the form of frequencies, which represents the number of items in specified qualitative description of categories. CLASSIFICATION based on the number of variables described. ONE-WAY has only one variable described by at least two categories. TWO-WAY has two variables described by their respective categories

ENUMERATION DATA ANALYSIS


EDA is done through the chi-square test. USES OF EDA 1. To test the goodness of fit to a normal curve, that is to find out whether or not a sample distribution conforms to the hypothetical situation. 2. To find out whether or not an observed proportion is equal to some given ideal or expected proportion. 3. To test the independence of one variable from another variable.

ENUMERATION DATA ANALYSIS


STEPS FOR EDA 1. State the null and alternative hypothesis. It may be stated in any of this way: a. For ONE-WAY: 1. The sample distribution conforms with the hypothetical or theoretical distribution. 2. The actual observed proportion is not significantly different from the ideal or expected proportion. b. For TWO-WAY: 1. One variable does not depend from another variable. 2. The two variables are independent from each other.

2. Determine the level of significance. 3. Determine the degrees of freedom using the following formula. For ONE-WAY: df = c-1 For TWO-WAY: df = (r-1)(k-1) where c number of categories r number of rows k number of columns 4. Locate the tabular values, in the chi-square distribution table by getting the intersection of degrees of freedom and level of significance.

5. Calculate the chi-square value using x2=(O-E)2/E where O actual observed frequency E expected/ideal frequency In two-way classification, the expected frequency is computed by multiplying the sub-total of the intersecting categories, then dividing the product by the total frequency represented by the grand total of the contingency table.

NOTE: If there is only one degree of freedom, Yates correction factor is applied

6. State the conclusion arrived at by the acceptance or rejection of Ho.


NOTE: 1. If x2 computed value is less than the tabular value, accept Ho . 2. If x2 computed value is greater than the tabular value, reject Ho.

Example 1: Based on the table, is the actual observed proportion significantly from the expected proportion, if the ideal expected proportion is 30% married, 50% single, 10 % widow, and 10 legally separated.

Example 3:The table of random variables, which is constructed in such a way that each digit is a value of a random variable which takes on the values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 with equal probabilities of 0.10. Test whether the discrepancies between the observed and expected frequencies can be attributed to chance at 0.05 level of significance.
