Types of Tables:
❑Simple Table :including one variable (quantitative or
qualitative ) & the corresponding frequency.
❑Cross tabulation:
✓Two–dimensional tables: two variables are cross classified
✓Three-dimensional tables: three variables are cross-classified (eg.
outcome of treatment by age and sex)
❑ Contingency table: demonstrating the relationship between two or
more variables.
Observations on a number of categorical variables are cross-classified

Frequency distribution

University of Baghdad/ College of Medicine 2022-2023
Histogram:
This is a graphical presentation of frequency distribution of
quantitative, categorical or ordinal variable, in which:
➢The rectangle (as class intervals) proportional in the area to the
frequencies are erected on the horizontal axis.
➢ The base lines are continuous (because we are dealing with
continues variables).
➢ The width of the rectangles should be equal.
University of Baghdad/ College of Medicine 2022-2023
Criteria of Histogram:
• Only one set of data can be shown in one histogram
• The area is proportional to the height,( the frequencies)in different
categories can be directly compared by the relative height of the respective
bar.
• It is important that the class interval should
be equal, otherwise the area should be
compared.

direct comparison.
• It is only appropriate when the
variables on the horizontal axis are 450

Scatter graphs
What type of correlation is shown by these graphs?
A time series graph displays data that are observed over a given period
of time.
From the graph, one can analyze the behavior of the data over time.
