Data Analysis
Introduction to AP Stats - Smelling Parkinson’s Disease
● Identify the individuals and variables in a set of data.
● Classify variables as categorical or quantitative.
● Make and interpret bar graphs for categorical data.
● Identify what makes some graphs of categorical data misleading.
● Calculate marginal and joint relative frequencies from a two-way
table.
● Calculate conditional relative frequencies from a two-way table.
● Use bar graphs to compare distributions of categorical data.
● Describe the nature of the association between two categorical
variables.
● Make and interpret dotplots, stemplots, and histograms of
quantitative data.
● Identify the shape of a distribution from a graph.
● Describe the overall pattern (shape, center, and variability) of a
distribution and identify any major departures from the pattern
(outliers).
● Compare distributions of quantitative data using dotplots, stemplots,
and histograms.
● Calculate measures of center (mean, median) for a distribution of
quantitative data.
● Calculate and interpret measures of variability (range, standard
deviation, IQR) for a distribution of quantitative data.
● Explain how outliers and skewness affect measures of center and
variability.
● Identify outliers using the 1.5×IQR rule.
● Make and interpret boxplots of quantitative data.
● Use boxplots and numerical summaries to compare distributions of
quantitative data.
