SAMPLE

Sampling is a process of
getting the sample.
Statistic versus Parameter
Statistics – a branch of
Mathematics. It is a subject offered in a
school.
Statistic – a datum in a collection
of statistics. It is a characteristic of a
sample. It is used to estimate the value
of a population. The average grade of
students would be an example of a
statistic.
Statistic versus Parameter
Sample Statistic – any quantity computed
from a sample taken from a population with the
intention of using this quantity to estimate same
but unknown quantities of the population. The
examples would be sample mean and sample
variance.
Parameter – a useful component of
statistical analysis. It refers to the characteristics
that are used to define a given population.
Statistic describes a sample while
parameter describes a population. In other
words, statistic is used to estimate a parameter.
Examples of a Parameter
Population mean (µ)
Population standard deviation (σ)
Population variance (σ²)

Random Sampling refers to
the sampling technique in
which each member of the
population is given equal
chance from a population is
called sample and the process
of taking samples is called
sampling.
Since survey research has a larger scope of
respondents, sampling technique is very
necessary. For instance, the population of the
research is 6,033 students, teachers, parents and
school administrators. It doesn’t mean that all of
these 6,033 target respondents will be given a
survey questionnaire. Sampling technique should
be done systematically so that expenses and time
will be minimized but the generality and reliability
of the information will be maintained.

STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY SAMSUDIN N. ABDULLAH, Ph.D.
Simple Random Sampling (SRS) is
a basic sampling technique where a
researcher selects a group of a sample
for study from a larger group
(population). Each individual is chosen
entirely by chance and each member of
the population has an equal chance of
being included in the sample.

Systematic Sampling is a statistical
method involving the selection of
elements from an ordered sampling
frame. The most common form of
systematic sampling is an
equiprobability method. In this
approach, progression through the list
is treated circularly, with a return to the
top once the end of the list is passed.
Stratified Sampling is a
method of sampling in which
the researcher divides the
population into separate
groups, called strata. Then, a
probability sampling is drawn
from each group.
Cluster Sampling is a sampling
technique used when mutually
homogeneous yet internally
heterogeneous groupings are evident
in a statistical population. It is often
used in marketing research. In this
sampling technique, the total
population is divided into groups called
clusters a simple random sample of the
group is selected.
Multistage Sampling is the taking
of samples in stages using smaller and
smaller sampling units at each stage. It
can be a complex form of cluster
sampling since it is a type of sampling
which involves dividing the populations
into groups. A combination of stratified,
cluster and simple random sampling is
used in multistage sampling technique.

Two Types of Statistics
1. Descriptive Statistics is concerned with the gathering,
classification and presentation of data and the collection
of summarizing values to describe group characteristics of
data. The most commonly used summarizing values to
describe group characteristics of data are percentage,
measures of central tendency (mean, mode, median);
measures of variability (range, standard deviation,
variance, coefficient of variation); of skewness and
kurtosis. Examples of descriptive statistics are the class
average of examination, range of student scores, average
salary, means of managerial satisfaction and average
return of investment.

2. Inferential Statistics pertains to the
methods dealing with making inference,
estimates or prediction about a large set of
data using the information gathered.
Commonly used inferential statistical tools or
techniques are testing hypothesis using the z-
test, t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA),
simple linear correlation (Pearson r),
Spearman’s Rho, chi-square (x²) and
regression.

Two Forms of Hypothesis
1. Null Hypothesis (Ho) is the hypothesis to
be tested and it represents what the
investigation doubts to be true.
2. Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) is the
operational statement of the theory that
the experimenter or researcher believes
to be true and wishes to be true.

STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY SAMSUDIN N. ABDULLAH, Ph.D.


Two Types of Hypothesis Testing
1. One-tailed (directional) test occurs when the
researcher has the prior expectation about
the sample value he expects to observe.
2. Two-tailed (non-directional) test occurs when
the alternative hypothesis does not specify a
directional difference for the parameter of
interest. This test is applied when the researcher
doesn’t have the prior expectation regarding the
value he expects to see in the sample.

What is a Hypothesis?
A hypothesis is basically a statement
about the target population. This is
formulated as a result of years of observation
and researches. New researches may result
from one’s desire to determine whether or
not a researcher’s hypothesis is supported
when a sample data are subjected to rigorous
scientific statistical methods.
A statistical hypothesis is an assertion or
conjecture concerning one or more
populations
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY SAMSUDIN N. ABDULLAH, Ph.D.
Steps in Hypothesis Testing
Step 1. Formulate the null and alternative
hypotheses.
Step 2. Set the level of significance (α).
Step 3. Select the appropriate test statistic
(statistical tool).
Step 4. Establish the critical (rejection) region.
Step 5. Compute the value of the test statistic
from the sample data.
Step 6. State your conclusion.

Examples:

XII, it was found out that the average monthly
net income of nurses is ₱ 8,048.25. Suppose a
researcher wants to test this figure by a
random sample of 158 nurses in Region XII to
determine whether the monthly net income
has changed. Suppose further the average net
monthly income of the 158 nurses is ₱ 9,568.40
and the population standard deviation was
found to be ₱ 1,563.42.

VI. Decision
Since that the t-computed value = 0.6084 is less
than the t-critical value = 2.1315, we have to accept
the null hypothesis. Therefore, there is no significant
difference on the pre-test scores of Section A and

THE NATURE OF STATISTICS
Statistics refers to the methods in collection,
presentation, analysis and interpretation of data.
Data Gathering or Collection may be done through
interview, questionnaires, tests, observation, registration
and experiments.
Presentation of Data refers to the organization of
data into tables, graphs, charts or paragraphs. Hence,
presentation of data may be tabular, graphical or textual.
Analysis of Data pertains to the process of
extracting from the given data relevant and noteworthy
information and this uses statistical tools or techniques.
Interpretation of Data refers to the drawing of
conclusions or inferences from the analyzed data.

Population STANDARD DEVIATION is the
measure of the variation of a set of data in terms of
the amounts by which the individual values differ
from their mean. It is the most stable measure of
spread.
Population Standard Deviation of Ungrouped Data
s= where:
s – standard deviation
d – deviation from the mean
– sum of squared deviations
n – number of items
Example 1. Calculate the standard deviation of
the given scores in a quiz: 18, 20, 22, 15, 16, 12,
17, 21, 10, 19.
