‭Lab skills check 1: Labs 1 and 2 focus also lab 3 and 4‬

‭Lab 1:‬
‭●‬ ‭Directions‬
‭○‬ ‭A1 type “original” - column A as original ordering of data‬
‭○‬ ‭Enter all scores in column A‬
‭○‬ ‭C1 type “sorted”‬
‭○‬ ‭Copy all scores and paste into column C‬
‭○‬ ‭Highlight column C scores and at top right push “sort and filter”- smallest to‬
‭largest‬
‭○‬ ‭type “sequence” E1‬
‭○‬ ‭Enter 1 E2‬
‭○‬ ‭Click and highlight from cell E2 to E32‬
‭○‬ ‭Find “fill” top right, click series: columns , linear; step value 1, stop value 31 bc‬
‭31 is the largest value as shown in the sequence line‬
‭○‬ ‭Frequency: # of individuals scoring a specific score (type “f” in cell F1)‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “rf” in G1 (relative frequency= frequency of score/ total # of participants)‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “%” in H1 ( percentile = rf times 100)‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “cf” in I1 ( cumulative frequency = total # of individuals scoring at or below‬
‭a particular score)‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “crf” in J1 (cumulative relative frequency= total relative frequency of scores‬
‭at or below at a particular score)‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “c%” in K1 (cumulative percentile= total percentage of scores at or below a‬
‭particular score)‬
‭○‬ ‭Write equation “=countif($A$2:$A$51,E2)” in cell F2‬
‭○‬ ‭Then copy cell F2 and highlight till cell 32 and paste‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “=” in cell G2, click on cell F2, then type “/50” cuz there are 50 data and‬
‭press enter‬
‭○‬ ‭Copy and paste formula into rest of cells‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “=” in cell H2, click on G2, type “*100”‬
‭○‬ ‭Copy and paste formula into rest of cells‬
‭○‬ ‭Type “=” in cell I2, then click F2 and press enter‬
‭○‬ ‭Then type “=” in I3, then click cell I2, type “+” and click cell F3 and enter‬
‭○‬ ‭Copy cell I3 and paste to rest of cells‬
‭○‬ ‭Copy cells I2-I32 and paste into column J and K‬
‭●‬ ‭Lab 2: (grouped frequencies are are ranges of values, ungrouped are‬
‭specific data points)‬
‭-Ungrouped frequency distribution‬
‭●‬ ‭Switch to “Variable View” window, and write “grade” in the name column.‬
‭●‬ ‭Click on label and write “gpa”‬
‭●‬ ‭On values column click on “none” and add value labels ex: 1, label A, all the way to 4‬
‭bc GPA only goes from 1-4‬

‭●‬ ‭Frequency table‬


‭○‬ ‭Click “analyze”, “descriptive statistics”, “frequencies”‬
‭○‬ ‭Move gpa into “variables” and then click OK‬

‭-Grouped frequency distribution‬


‭●‬ ‭Grouping (how to create class intervals- which will tell you how many they want)‬
‭●‬ ‭Go to “transform” and then “recode into different variables”‬
‭●‬ ‭Select variable and move it to the “input variable” box‬
‭●‬ ‭Label it …._code, click change‬
‭●‬ ‭Click “old and new values”‬
‭●‬ ‭Click “range”, click “range LOWEST through value” ; click value on right side and put 1,‬
‭repeat for all intervals going like (85.1 to 100; 100.1-115) and last one click “range‬
‭HIGHEST through value)‬
‭●‬ ‭Click continue then OK‬
‭●‬ ‭Then go to the variable view and click on the …_code values; then enter 1 through for‬
‭example 6 for values and label it like (1- not smart; 2-somewhat smart etc.)‬

‭●‬ ‭Graphs‬
‭○‬ ‭Histogram (used for grouped frequencies)‬
‭■‬ ‭Click “graphs” “histogram”; move variable into “variable” and click OK‬
‭○‬ ‭Stem and Leaf and Boxplot‬
‭■‬ ‭Select “analyze” “descriptive statistics” “explore” move variable into‬
‭“dependent list” and click OK‬
‭○‬ ‭Bar graph‬
‭■‬ ‭Select “graphs” “bar” “simple”‬
‭■‬ ‭Move variable into “category axis” and click OK‬
‭●‬ ‭4 levels of measurement‬
‭○‬ ‭Nominal Measurement‬
‭Categorizes variables without a specific order (e.g., gender: male, female).‬
‭Measures frequency.‬
‭○‬ ‭Ordinal Measurement‬
‭Categorizes variables in a ranked order (e.g., liking scale: "Like very much" to‬
‭"Dislike very much").‬‭Measures frequency and order.‬
‭○‬ ‭Interval Measurement‬
‭Provides ordered categories with equal intervals but no absolute zero (e.g.,‬
‭Celsius temperature, comparing weekly arguments). Can be discrete or‬
‭continuous.‬
‭○‬ ‭Ratio Measurement‬
‭Similar to interval but includes an absolute zero (e.g., heart rate, height).‬
‭Measures true quantities with proportional relationships.‬
