Inferential and Descriptive Statistics:
Is it possible to find the confidence interval for randomly collected discrete data? if so, please provide formulas.
Discrete data are finite data. For example number of valid votes in US election. Suppose total number of votes casted is 1500 and total number of valid votes is 230 therefore
p(hat)= 230/1500= 0.153
for such case we will make use of
Where Zc is critical value of Z
I hope this will help you.

First, provide a definition of descriptive statistics and a definition of inferential statistics. Second, compare and contrast descriptive and inferential statistics (ie., how are these two types of statistics similar, how are they different).
discuss descriptive and inferential statistics for data analysis for a quantitative study
1. Compare descriptive statistics and inferential statistics in research. Please give an example of each type that could be collected in a study that would be done on your nursing clinical issue you identified MY clinical issue " is handwashing effective against nosocomial infections via nursing homes or hospitals". please answer which technique or strategies are most effective for my clinical issue. thank you in advance
A) Explain the difference between descriptive and inferential statistics. B) What happens to the margin of error when the confidence level increases. C) Discuss the relationship between sample size and margin of error.
Compare and contrast the two branches of statistics ( descriptive and inferential ) in the health care system. Give an example on each branch Need help writing a page on the above subject for stats for health care management. Please and thank you.
How you recognize when an inferential statistics problem involves either a confidence interval estimate or a hypothesis testing procedure and when it involves either a mean or a proportion?
There is often the requirement to evaluate descriptive statistics for data within the organization or for health care information. Every year the National Cancer Institute collects and publishes data based on patient demographics. Understanding differences between the groups based upon the collected data often informs health care professionals towards research, treatment options, or patient education.Using the data on the "National Cancer Institute Data" Excel spreadsheet, calculate the descriptive statistics indicated below for each of the Race/Ethnicity groups. Refer to your...

Share what you learned about descriptive analysis (statistics), inferential analysis (statistics), and qualitative analysis of data; include something that you learned that was interesting to you and your thoughts on why data analysis is necessary for discovering credible findings for nursing. Compare clinical significance and statistical significance; include which one is more meaningful to you when considering application of findings to nursing practice.
** Q1/ Identify each of the following statistics as either descriptive or inferential. For each, give a reason to support your response. 1 The average age of students in our statistics class is 20 years old. 2 The average age of undergraduate students in the CUNY system is 20 years old. 3 Seventy-three percent of sixth-graders have cell-phones. 4 The salary of LeBron James is greater than the average salary of his teammates. 5 Eighteen of the twenty...
