Data Analysis (1)

The document discusses quantitative data analysis, emphasizing its two main branches: descriptive statistics, which summarizes data from a specific sample, and inferential statistics, which makes predictions about a larger population. It highlights common methods such as correlation analysis, which measures relationships between variables, and regression analysis, which examines how different factors impact outcomes. Examples are provided to illustrate the application of these statistical methods in research.

Quantitative Data Analysis – it involves numbers and

statistics.
Statistical Analysis – is the core of quantitative analysis.
It deals with basic calculations including average and
median to more sophisticated analyzes like correlations
and regressions.
Descriptive Statistics (descriptive analysis) – it gives
details on your specific data set.
Inferential statistics- It aim to make inferences about the
population. It makes two common times of predictions.
Descriptive Statistics (descriptive analysis) – the first level
of analysis. It helps researchers summarize the data and
patterns.
- It used for analyzing single variable, it is often called
univariate analysis.
- Most helpful when the research is limited to the sample
and does not need to be generalized to a larger
population.

Example: If you are comparing the percentage of your


children vaccinated in two different villages.
Inferential statistics- It aim to make inferences about the
population. It makes two common times of predictions.
For example:
• Weight differences between learners grouped
according to their favorite meal. The second is
relationship between variables.
• The relationship between body weight and the number
of hours a week a person does Zumba Dance.
Common Inferential Methods

Common Inferential Methods
Correlation Analysis- a statistical method that measures the
strength of the relationship between two or more variables. It's
used in research to understand how variables change together.
For example:
•The relationship between alcohol consumption
and unemployment
•The relationship between academic performance
and career success
•The relationship between income levels and crime
Regression analysis- is a statistical method used to study
how variables relate to each other. It is used in research
to analyze the impact of different factors on an
outcome.
For example:
• Predicting sales based on advertising expenditure
• Estimating employee productivity based on hours
worked
• Understanding how price increases impact sales
differently across income levels
• Forecasting financial performance
