Uses Statistical Techniques To Analyze Data

This document discusses statistical data analysis techniques. It explains that statistical data analysis involves collecting data, interpreting it, and validating results. It uses statistical tools to perform operations on quantitative data like surveys. Common software packages for analysis are SAS and SPSS. The analysis can be univariate or multivariate depending on the number of variables. Inference is a major task and consists of estimation and hypothesis testing on parametric and non-parametric data respectively.

USES STATISTICAL

TECHNIQUES TO
ANALYZE DATA
• Statistics is basically a science that involves data
collection, data interpretation and finally, data
validation. Statistical data analysis is a procedure of
performing various statistical operations. It is a kind
of quantitative research, which seeks to quantify
the data, and typically, applies some form of
statistical analysis. Quantitative data basically
involves descriptive data, such as survey data and
observational data
Statistical data analysis generally involves some
form of statistical tools,which layman cannot
perform without having any statistical
knowledge.There are various software packages to
perform statistical data analysis.This software
includes Statistical Analysis System (SAS), Statistical
Package for the social sciences(SPSS).
Data in statistical data analysis
consists of variable(s). Sometimes
the data is univariate or multivariate.
Depending upon the number of
variables, the researcher performs
different statistical techniques.
If the data in statistical data analysis is multiple in
numbers, then several multivariates can be
performed. These are factor statistical data analysis,
discriminant statistical data analysis, etc. Similarly, if
the data is singular in number, then the univariate
statistical data analysis is performed. This includes t
test for significance, z test, f test, ANOVA one way,
etc.
The data in statistical data analysis is
basically of 2 types, namely, continuous
data and discreet data. The continuous
data is the one that cannot be counted. For
example, intensity of a light can be
measured but cannot be counted.
The continuous data in statistical
data analysis is distributed under
continuous distribution function,
which can also be called the
probability density function, or
simply pdf.
The discreet data in statistical data
analysis is distributed under discreet
distribution function, which can also be
called the probability mass function or
simple pmf.
We use the word ‘density’ in continuous
data of statistical data analysis because
density cannot be counted, but can be
measured. We use the word ‘mass’ in
discreet data of statistical data analysis
because mass cannot be counted.
There are various pdf’s and pmf’s in
statistical data analysis. For example,
Poisson distribution is the commonly
known pmf, and normal distribution is
the commonly known pdf.
These distributions in statistical data
analysis help us to understand which
data falls under which distribution. If
the data is about the intensity of a bulb,
then the data would be falling in
Poisson distribution.
There is a major task in statistical data
analysis, which comprises of statistical
inference. The statistical inference is
mainly comprised of two parts:
estimation and tests of hypothesis.
Estimation in statistical data analysis mainly
involves parametric data—the data that
consists of parameters. On the other hand,
tests of hypothesis in statistical data analysis
mainly involve non parametric data— the
data that consists of no parameters.
