Statistics Homework Questions A-i to A-iv

Question A-i

Question A i.  for each variable includes correct level of measure PLUS rationale supported by reference) a)Age b)Age group c)Gender d)Number of prescription medicationse)History of chronic laxative usef)Functional ability for eating drinking and ambulationg)Cognitive status to follow simple directionsh)Number of bowel movements per weekQuestion A ii.  For the variable ‘Number of prescription medications’ calculate, and cut and paste the excel outputs for the threemeasures of central tendency. All three measures of central tendency must be calculated and identified for full marks. (No partial marks) Question A iii. For the variable ‘age’calculate, and cut and paste the excel outputs for the threemeasures of central tendency All three measures of central tendency must be calculated and identified for full marks. For the variable ‘age group’ create a) a frequency distribution chart b) a bar chart The bins and the variables with counts per group have been created for you on excel data set. Each chart must include labels and/or a legend to identify clearly the variables and groups for full marks.

3Question A iv.For the variable: ‘functional ability for eatingdrinking and ambulation’,calculate the 3 measures of central tendency AND 3 measures of variability and cut and paste the excel outputs. You must be clear in your answer which measures are for central tendency and which are for variability to get full marksDiscuss why there are,or are not,extreme values using measures ofcentral tendency and variability to support your rationale discuss (interpret) the central tendency and variability for this variable, including which measure of central tendency is most meaningful and why. If there are extreme scores, identify scores that are extreme. Question A v. 0.5 marks For the variable ‘cognitive status to follow simple directions’ calculate the 3 measures of central tendency AND 3 measures ofvariability and cut and paste the excel outputs. You must be clear in your answer which measures are for central tendency and which are for variability to get full marksDiscuss (interpret) the descriptive statistics for this variable including why thereare or are not extreme values using measures of central tendency and variability to support your rationale, including which measure of central tendency is most meaningful and why. If there are extreme scores,identify scores that are extreme. (Interpretation = what does this data analysis tell us so far about this sample)Question A vi.a)For the variables ‘functional ability for eating drinking and ambulation’ and ‘cognitive status to follow simple directions’create frequency distribution chartsand histograms. Chartsmust include labels and/or a legend to identify clearly the variables and groups for full marks.b)Create a column or bar chart for the variables ‘toileting level’ and ‘client satisfaction with bowel patterns’ state the level of measures for each and provide the rationale with reference to support. Question B. Interpretation of AnalysesQuestion 4.i)Discuss (interpret) the descriptive statistics for the conceptage, as analyzed by the previous two variables(‘age’ and ‘age group’) for this sample.ii)What might be some implications with regards to the concepts‘age’ and 4‘cognitive status to follow simple directions’as measured by the three (3) variablesin this assignmentanalysisfora) research and b) nursing practice?iii)With ALL analyzed descriptive data in this assignment, describe this sample, in words. iv)What might be some implications regarding all variables from the data analysis of this sample of nurses for a) research and b) nursing pra
