Encoding and Data Analaysis

The document outlines the process of coding data for analysis, emphasizing the importance of entering responses into a computer system for easier analysis. It discusses statistical treatment of data, distinguishing between descriptive and inferential statistics, and highlights methods for analyzing trends and relationships within data sets. Additionally, it explains various statistical tests like T-tests and ANOVA for comparing groups, as well as Pearson and Spearman correlations for assessing relationships between variables.

Objectives

• Comprehend the ways to encode


data;
• Choose the necessary tool for data
analysis; and
• Calculate the data for interpretation.
CODING OF DATA

At this point, you should have a


pile of instruments that have been
completed by the respondents.

CODING OF DATA

The next step is to enter the


data into the computer so you can
easily analyze the data.

CODING OF DATA
Because you will not be
entering in the entire response of
every participant, this process is
called Coding the Data because
each response is given a code.

Statistical
Treatment of Data
•Statistical treatment is when you apply
a statistical method to a data set to
draw meaning from it.
•It means investigating trends, patterns,
and relationships using quantitative
data
2 BRANCHES OF
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

Descriptive Statistics
Inferential Statistics
•It focuses on describing the sample.
•It summarizes or describes the
characteristics of a data set.
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/descriptive_statistics.asp
• It consists of three basic categories of
measures: measures of central tendency,
measures of variability (or spread), and
frequency distribution.
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/descriptive_statistics.asp
•Measures of central tendency describe
the center of the data set (mean,
median, mode).
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/descriptive_statistics.asp
•Measures of variability describe the
dispersion of the data set (variance,
standard deviation).
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/descriptive_statistics.asp
•Measures of frequency distribution
describe the occurrence of data within
the data set (count).

•It aims to make inferences about the
population. It is used to make
predictions about what is expected to
find in the full population.
•Predictions about differences between
groups (for example, height differences
between respondents when grouped by
their favorite meal or gender.)
PREDICTIONS ABOUT
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GROUPS

T-TEST ANOVA
used when comparing used when comparing
two groups on a three or more groups
dependent variable on a dependent
(e.g. sex) variable
(e.g. age, gender, strand)
•Relationships between variables (for
example, the relationship between body
weight and the number of hours a week a
person does yoga)
Relationships between
variables

PEARSON SPEARMAN
measures the degree measures the degree
of the relationship of association between
between linearly two variables
related variables (e.g. level of
(e.g. height=age) education=salary)
