Universe. The entre category under consideration. This {s the data which we have not completely examined but to waich our conclusions refer. The population size is usually incicated by a capital N = Bxamples: every layer inthe Unies seates al single women inthe Unies States Sample. That portion ofthe population that Is available, or to be ‘made avaliable, for analysis, A good sample is representative ofthe population. We wil learn about probability samples and how they Drovide assurance that a sample's indeed representative. The ‘Sample size is shown as lower case n your company manufactures one milion Laptops, they might rake a Sample of say. 500, of them to test gual. The population size N= r “1000000 andthe samme tive ens Key Terms Parameter. A characteristic of a population. The population mean, i and the population standard deviation, 0, are two examples of population parameters. If you want to determine the population parameters, you have to take a census of the entire population. Taking a census is very costly, Statistic. A statistic is a measure that is derived from the sample data. For example, the sample mean, X, and the sample standard deviation, s, are statistics. They are used to estimate the population parameters. Key Terms Example of statistical inference from quality control: » GE manufactures LED bulbs and wants to know how many are defective. Suppose one million bulbs a year are produced in its new plant in Staten Island. The company might sample, say, 500 bulbs to estimate the proportion of defectives. “N= 1,000,000 and n = 500 «If 5 out of 500 bulbs tested are defective, the sample Proportion of defectives will be 1% (5/500). This statistic may be used to estimate the true proportion of defective bulbs (the population proportion) « In this case, the sample proportion is used to make inferences about the population proportion. Key Terms } Statistical Inference. The process of using sample Statistics to draw conclusions about population parameters is known as statisticaf /nference. For instance, using ¥ (based on a sample of, say, n= to draw conclusions about p (population of, :2y, 300 milion}. This is a measure of pertormarce In which the Sample measurement is usee fo astimate the Dopulation parameter ‘Note that pollsters do rot call every adult who can vote for president.

This is data that has been compiled by the researcher using such techniques as surveys, experiments, depth interviews, observation, focus groups. » Types of surveys. A lot of data is obtained using surveys. Each survey type has advantages and disadvantages. Nall: lowest aie of response: usually the lowest cost Personally administered: can “probe’: most cost Tmawlewer effects tine interdewet might fucnce the response) Telephone: fastest © Web: fast and inexpensive Primary vs. Secondary Data » Typical Objectives for secondary data research designs: Fact Finding. Examples: amount spend by inéustry and competition on advertising: market share; number of computers with modems in US. Japan, ete + Mode! Building. To specify relationships between two or more variables, often using descriptive or predictive equations Example: measuring market potential 3s per capita income plus the number cars bought In various countries. © Longitudinal vs. static studies, , Primary vs. Secondary Data » Secondary data, This is data that has been compiled or published elsewhere, ¢.g., census lata. © The trick is to find data that is useful. The data was probably collected for some purpose ather than ielping to solve the researcher's problem at hand. Advantages: It can be gathered quickly and inexpensively. I enables researchers to'bulld on past research. Problems: Data may be outdated. Variation in definition of terms. Different units of measurement. May not be accurate (e.g., census undercount).
