II. COURSE DESCRIPTION
This 3-unit course enables the students to know the scientific approach to decision making when
solving problems. Through the use of primary statistical techniques, the students attain a meaningful
understanding of statistical reasoning within the context of management decision-making. Several methods
are introduced in applying mathematics to solve linear programming problems quantitatively.
INTRODUCTION
This module will introduce the meaningful understanding and valuable insights on the basic concepts,
tools, and sampling techniques of statistical investigation.Statistics as a field of knowledge proved so much in
the world as very powerful tool in almost all field of works. It is a way of collecting and displaying information.
This information is usually associated with data. Data come in different forms and from different sources. You
read them in daily newspaper, hear them over the radio, and find them on the internet. Raw data is organized
and then presented using tables (frequency distributions) and graphs (bar graphs, pie charts). So statistics,
is the science of collecting, describing and interpreting data.

IMPORTANCE OF STATISTICS
Education Statistics is used to measure and described test results that can improve the teaching and
learning process
Science Statistics is used as a tool in research and experimentation as well as in the interpretation of
the collected data.
Medicine Statistics used to collect information about patients and diseases and to make decisions
about the use of new drugs or treatment.

measurement are: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.

B. SAMPLING METHODS
Sampling Technique is the procedure of gathering sampling from the population. Sampling is needed in
almost all forms of data collection as in most research processes it is simply not possible to gain data from
every available source.Hence, sampling methods will use to produce data that are representative of the

population and not biased. There are two types of sampling techniques: Random sampling/Probability
sampling technique and Non-random sampling/ Non-probability sampling technique.
Random Sampling is the most commonly used sampling technique in which each member in the population
is given an equal chance of being selected in the sample.
1. Lottery or Fishbowl Sampling. This is done by simply writing the names or numbers of all the members of
the population in small rolled pieces of paper which are later placed in a container.
2. Systematic sampling. Relies on arranging the target population according to some ordering scheme and
then selecting elements at regular intervals through that ordered list. In this case: k=(population size/sample
size).
3. Stratified sampling. This method is applied when the population is divided into different strata or classes
wherein each class must be represented in the study.
4. Multi-stage sampling. Complex form of cluster sampling in which two or more levels of units are embedded
one in the other.
5. Cluster sampling. In this technique the selection of sample units is not by individuals but by groups.
Non-random sampling is a method of collecting a small portion of the population by which not all the
members in the population are given the chance in a sample.
1. Purposive sampling. Based on a certain criteria laid down by the researcher.
2. Quota Sampling. It is inexpensive method to operate since the choice of the number of persons or
elements to be included in a sample is done at the researcher’s own convenience.
3. Convenience Sampling. It refers to a sampling procedure in which the investigator selects the persons who
are most conveniently available or who accidentally come in contact during a certain period of time in the
research.

TOPIC SUMMARY
In this lesson, you have learned that …
Statistics is a branch of applied mathematics that deals with the collection, organization, presentation,
analysis and interpretation of data.
The division of statistics composed of descriptive and inferential statistics.
Population is defined as a group of people, animals, places, things or ideas while sample is a
subgroup of the population.
There are two type of variables: Qualitative variables (Dichotomous ,Trichotomous ,and Multinomous)
and Quantitative variables (Continuous data and Discrete data).
The scale of measurement composed of nominal, ordinal, interval and ratio data.
Some common methods of data collection are Direct or Interview Method, Indirect or Questionnaire
Method, Registration Method, Observation Method and Experimentation.
Sampling Technique is the procedure of gathering sampling from the population. There are two kinds
of sampling technique: the Random sampling/Probability sampling technique (Lottery or Fishbowl
Sampling, Systematic sampling, Stratified sampling, Multi-stage sampling, and Cluster sampling) and
Non-random sampling/ Non-probability sampling technique(Purposive sampling, Quota Sampling,
and Convenience Sampling)
