Lesson 5 - Grouped

This document discusses grouped data and descriptive statistics used to analyze grouped data. It defines grouped data as raw data that has been categorized into groups and presented in a frequency table showing the number of data points in each group. It provides examples of frequency tables and discusses how to calculate measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of variation (variance, standard deviation) from grouped frequency distribution data. It also includes exercises asking the reader to calculate these descriptive statistics from provided grouped data tables.

What is Grouped Data?
• As mentioned above, grouped data is the type of data which is classified into groups after
collection.

• The raw data is categorized into various groups and a table is created. The primary
purpose of the table is to show the data points occurring in each group.

• For instance, when a test is done, the results are the data in this scenario and there are
many ways to group this data.

Grouping of data has the following advantages:


•Helps in improving the efficiency of estimations.

•Allows for greater balancing of statistical power of tests of the differences between strata by
analyzing equal number from strata.

•Irrelevant subpopulations are ignored while the significant ones are focused on.
• Grouped data is data that has been bundled together in
categories. Histograms and frequency tables can be used to show this
type of data:
Class Interval Frequency

20-29 13
30-39 16
40-49 23
50-59 18
Summarizes the data collected by forming categories of values
and indicating the number of data that fall into each categories. 60-69 21
Example of frequency table:
70-79 11
