Analyzing School Categorical Variables |
| Statistical Topic:
Because categorical variables are not numerical or continuous, we have to use another typesof sampling distribution besids the normal distribution. For this reason, these tests are called non-parametric tests. |
| Student Issue:
Good school climate or sense of school community gives a student an environment that should promote academic ability and provide a sense of personal satistifaction. Poor school community allows students to drop out of school and continue life without much needed skills and information that would enhance most careers. |
| Data Set:
Categorical variables were generated from the survey instrument measuring school community used in the previous exercise of data analysis.. |
| Goal of Data Analysis Lab:
The goal of this lab is to learn how to do two chi-square inferential tests that measure 1) differences in responses and 2) relationships between two categorical variables. |
