Abstract: |
This chapter analyzes the process that concerns, on the one hand, the collection of data, i.e. the recording the quantitative or qualitative data (records) of the research and on the other hand the storage and their processing, i.e. the statistical evaluation of the data. They are analyzed in the same chapter basic statistical quantities and their importance for the evaluation of the data, while general guidelines are given
for drawing up tables and charts as aids to aggregation presentation of numerical as well as qualitative data. Finally, basic statistics methods are discussed, which may be parametric or non-parametric, for the statistical evaluation of both qualitative and quantitative data. The purpose of this chapter is not to replace the statistics courses but aims to make the student realize the practical value of the main
statistical quantities such as those given by the special statistical programs.
