Lesson 1. Normal Distribution

Highlights

A. What is Statistics and what is it for?

- It is the science of gathering, identifying and researching numerical data of

large quantities concerning ratio or proportion of a specified sample in a whole
set.
It is commonly used in analysis of random sampling, and other sampling
distributions in probability of a sample.

B. Describe a normal distribution.

- It is the most common continuous probability distribution in the field of statistics.

It also forms a bell curve. It distributes the values of variables and it has a

symmetrical figure in both sides with respect to the middle value. The mean,

median, and mode coincide at the middle value.

C. State and explain the Empirical Rule.

- It is also named as three-sigma rule. In statistics, for the normal distributed data,

most data fall on the range of within three standard deviation values which are
68%

within the 1-standard deviation, 95% within the 2-standard deviation, and 99.7%

within the 3-standard deviation. It is used in calculating the probability of a sample

in the whole data. It gives characteristic and determines the distribution of a given

data. If the mean and standard deviation id present, the probability of the data can

be computed. Basically, it tells us the distribution of data in a distributed sample or

population.

Lesson 2. Central Limit Theorem

Highlights

A. Explain the Inferential process of statistics

- It uses sampling distributions to analyze the random samples or population and

creates a conclusion about the certain topic and its probability. The population is
the

large group of subjects while the sample is just the portion of the group of subjects.

Inferential statistics characterizes the samples taken out from a population and find

the probability of these subjects.

B. State and explain the Central Limit Theorem

- It states that the sampling distribution of the sample means are becoming more

similar to normal distribution graph if the sample size increases regardless of the

population distribution shape. It also explains the characteristic of a population

more accurately as the sample size increases. In contrast, the more sample there is

the more it looks like the same form of the normal distribution graph and it can

describe more accurately.

Lesson 3. Regression and Correlation

Highlights

A. Correlation Analysis
1. What is Correlation Analysis?

- It is used as a statistical technique to determine the connections of the

variables. It mostly focuses on linear relationship of variables.

2. How is correlation measured and how is the value interpreted?

- Correlation analysis is the statistical way to interpret the relationship of

variables. The Pearson Product Moment correlation r is used to get the direction

and magnitude. r ranges from -1 to 1 representing strong and weak linear

relationship respectively.

B. Regression Analysis
1. What is Regression Analysis?

- It is a type of analysis wherein the nature of linear analysis is interpreted

within the dependent and independent variables presented. It can be classified

as simple or multiple depending on the number of independent variables

present.

2. What is a Least-Squares Line?

- It has a form of ”y=bx+a”. It is a line in which represents the best fit

that minimizes the variance. Moreover, it makes a regression line formed

from the vertical distance of the points of data as small difference possible.
