Team Stat Modeller Your Name Your Email Your Number According to the empirical rule, approximately what percent of the data should lie within μ±σ? Can’t say 99.7 % 68 % 95 % None The larger the size of the population, the _________ should be the sample size. Larger Fixed Accurate Smaller None Which of the following divides a group of data into four subgroups? Percentiles Median Variance Quartiles None A parameter is a measure which is computed from None of these Population data Test statistics Sample data None Data is the simply the numerical results of any scientific Observation Analysis Researches Measurement None Both sampling and non-sampling error must be reduced to minimum in order to get representative a sample of the _________as possible. Region Population Group Universe None The basic objective of a sample is to draw _______about the population from which such sample is drawn Conclusion Parameters Characteristic Inferences None A chance variation in an observational process is Measurement error Instrument error Random error Dispersion/variability None The method of sampling, in which the choice of sample items depends exclusively on the judge of investigator is termed as Judgmental sampling Systematic sampling Quota sampling Convenience sampling None A perfect random number table would be one in which every digit has been entered ________. Arbitrarily Randomly Chronologically Sequentially None The ________ process would be required to ensure that the data is complete and as required. Editing Ordering Analysis Tabulation None If series consist of 41 numbers then for finding the median, we ordered the series in ascending and we use The 20th value of order series The 21st value of order series The average of 21st and 22nd values The average of 20th and 21st values None In Statistics, __________ Classification includes data according to the time period in which the items under consideration occurred Topological Geographical Chronological Alphabetical None The sum of the deviations about the mean is always: Always zero Range Can’t say Total standard deviation None If the sample is truly representative of the population, then the characteristic of the sample can be considered to be the same as those of __________population. Random Fixed Entire Selected None The stages of malignant disease (Cancer) is recorded using symbol 0, I, II, III, IV. We say that the scale used is Nominal Ordinal Alphanumeric Numerical None Sampling is the simple process of learning about the _______on the basis of sample drawn from it. Area Census Group Population None A median of series of numerical values is A measure of eccentricity of the series A value for which half of values are lower and half of values are higher The value exactly located midway between minimum and maximum of the series The most commonly encountered values in series None A population, in statistical term, is the totality of things under consideration. It is the collection of all values of the_________that is under study. Please select your answer Measure Instance Variable Amount When the data is to be processed by computers then it must be coded and converted into the Computer language English language Statistical Language Regional language None The mean of a distribution is 23, the median is 24, and the mode is 25.5. It is most likely that this distribution is: Negatively skewed Positively skewed Symmetric Asymptotic None Fundamental statistical Indicators are Median Mean and Variance Variance Mean None By the definition of randomness, each ____________ has the same chance of being considered Probable entity Random entity Possible entity Observed entity None If the average of a series of values is 10 and their variance is 4 then coefficient of variation is 10 % 2.5 % 40 % 20% None The specified statistical methods that can be used to summarize or to describe a collection of data is Inferential statistics Descriptive statistics Analytical statistics All options are correct None Please Share This Share this content Opens in a new window Opens in a new window Opens in a new window Opens in a new window Opens in a new window Opens in a new window Opens in a new window Opens in a new window Leave a Reply Cancel replyCommentEnter your name or username to comment Enter your email address to comment Enter your website URL (optional)
