•How many students in this class selected each number?
•What percentage selected each number?
![Page 6: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
How did your class compare?
Typically about:75% will choose 320% will choose 2 or 45% will choose 1

The study of numerical data
(information)
Statistics
![Page 8: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
A sample is a collection of data from some fraction of a population.
It allows us to learn about the entire population by studying a relatively small portion of the population.
Sample
![Page 9: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
A census is when every individual in the population is measured.
Not difficult if your population is Mrs. Otap’s 4th Block.
Imagine your population is all household in South Carolina.
What would happen by the them you collected data from the entire population?
(does the wording matter or did that last one make sense?) Would there be some households that could be
easily missed?
Census
![Page 10: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Suppose you are interested in knowing the mean height for everyone in your school. ◦ What would a census tell you?
◦ How close would a sample size of one less student that the population be to the mean of the population?
◦ What about ten less students?
◦ If you took a sample of 100 and another sample of 10, which mean would be closer to the population?
Census vs. Sample
![Page 11: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
In general, a larger sample size will result in a more accurate estimate of the population.
When the population is very large, larger samples will not produce significantly better results and are usually more expensive or difficult to obtain.
A balance is usually made, not too small to sacrifice accuracy, and not too large to sacrifice cost.
For very large populations a sample size in the hundreds is normally sufficient.
Census vs. Sample
![Page 12: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Making sure that a sample is truly random means that the person taking the sample has no control over who is selected.
When a sample is not random a bias could appear. This means that some individuals are somehow favored over others in the population.
Random
![Page 13: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Each individual has an equal chance of being
selected
Example: High School Students Step 1: Write each student’s name on a slip
of paper Step 2: Mix the papers up in a box Step 3: Draw names/slips from the box
(Is this feasible for Wando? Other ideas?)
Simple Random Sampling (SRS)
![Page 14: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Describe a method that would ensure your sample of 5 students from this class will be a simple random sample. Compare and discuss your method with others in the class.
Simple Random Sample

Random Numbers are a primary tool in selecting SRS.
You can get random numbers from your TI-84 calculator.
Books of random numbers have been published. Page 834
Websites exist which provide truly random numbers. http://www.random.org/
Simple Random Sample
![Page 16: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Select random groups and interview every member of the selected groups
Example: High School Students Step 1: Randomly select classes Step 2: Interview every student in the
selected classes
Cluster Sampling
![Page 17: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
An appropriate rule or pattern is used to make
selectionsExample: Step 1: Sort students alphabetically by last
name, first name. Step 2: Select every 8th name on the list
Systematic Sampling
![Page 18: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Population is divided into subpopulations or strata and a random
sample taken from each subgroupExample: High School Students Step 1: divide students by grade level Step 2: use an appropriate method to take a
random sample from each subgroup
Stratified Random Sample
![Page 19: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Easy Example: Survey your friends
Convenience Sample
![Page 20: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Def: Bias from people choosing if they participate
Example: Lunch Room ask each person if they want to take a quick survey
Voluntary Response Bias
![Page 21: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Def: Bias resulting from a large number not responding
Ex: Chose 1234, only half the students gave answer
Nonresponse Bias
![Page 22: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Def: Anything in a survey design that influences responses
Example: Raise your hand if you are failing this class
Do you want this ugly yellow or this pretty blue for our shirts?
Response Bias
![Page 23: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Some part of population is under represented
Example: Lack of lower income individuals vote in presidential election
Undercoverage
![Page 24: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Statistical Study Steps - Survey
![Page 25: SP 2015. Journal Prompt: Describe 5 things that might be wrong with Catbert’s claims.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070415/5697c02d1a28abf838cd995f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
1) As LARGE as possible, A study with 100 people is going to be a more authentic study than a
study with 10 people.
2) REPRESENTATIVE of the larger population you are studying
If your study is favorite singer among 7th graders, only survey 7th graders! Don't ask 8th graders, your parents, baby cousins, etc.
3) RANDOMLY selectedIf your study is favorite sports team, don't ask only Yankees fans.
4) UNBIASED (fair)
Valid SampleIn order to have the best sample possible, you want your sample to be...
