06 Frequency Distribution Table

A frequency distribution table displays data arranged into classes with the number of observations that fall into each class. It includes terms like class frequency, class interval, class limits, class boundaries, class width, and class mark. The steps to construct a frequency distribution table are to decide the number of classes, determine the class width, start with the lowest class, tally the frequencies for each class until the highest value is reached. The last class interval can go beyond the highest value as long as the class width is followed.

Frequency Distribution Table

Frequency Distribution Table


is a table which shows the data arranged into different classes and the number of cases which fall into each class

Definition of Terms in FDT


Class Frequency
- the number of observations falling in the class

Class Interval
- the number defining a class

Class Limits
- the end numbers of class
Lower Limits Upper Limits

Definition of Terms in FDT


Class Boundaries
- half unit below the lower limit and half a unit above the upper limit (lower cb upper cb)

Class Width or Si e of Class Interval


- the number of test scores contained in each class

Class !ar"
- midpoint of a class interval x =

UL + LL 2

Definition of Terms in FDT

- consists only of class interval and frequency

Steps in Constructing the FDT


1) *ecide on the number of classes) #) *etermine the class width (i)) highest value lowest value i= number of classes 3) +tart the lowest class with the lowest value of the raw data, in order to minimi-e the errors) ) .ally the frequencies for each class, until the highest value is reached)

Steps in Constructing the FDT

Relative Frequency Distribution


is a table which lists the relative frequencies of the classes

class frequency rf = # of observations ( N )

rfp = rf 100%

Cumulative Frequency Distribution


is a table which shows the number of cases falling below a particular value
