Understanding Descriptive Statistics Online

This session is bookable  only by postgraduate researchers (PGRs) undertaking a PhD or research staff from the Coventry University Group. Students on taught programmes of study (undergraduate or postgraduate) can obtain one to one help from sigma (please see http://sigma.coventry.ac.uk)

The first step in analysing any quantitative data collected as part of your research is to understand your data set by summarising and presenting it graphically. This session will describe approaches to summarising and visualising different types of data including categorical and scale data. This may include frequency tables, contingency tables, percentages, mean, median and mode, standard deviation and variance, range and interquartile range, bar charts and histograms, boxplots and scatter plots.

All sessions will be held online using Microsoft Teams the link will be provided in the registration email.
