Bivariate Data Analysis: Examples, Definition, Data Sets Correlation
Bivariate Data: Examples, Definition and Analysis Bivariate Data: Examples, Definition and Analysis About The Author Leave a Reply Cancel Reply
A positive relationship (also called positive correlation) – that means if the independent variable increases, then the dependent variable would also increase and vice versa. The above example about the kids’ age and height is a classical positive relationship. A negative relationship (negative correlation) – when the independent variable increases and the dependent variable decrease and vice versa. Example: when the car age increases, the car price decreases. So, we use bivariate data to compare two sets of data and to discover any relationships between them. Bivariate Data Analysis Bivariate analysis allows you to study the relationship between 2 variables and has many practical uses in the real life. It aims to find out whether there exists an association between the variables and what is its strength. Bivariate analysis also allows you to test a hypothesis of association and causality. It also helps you to predict the values of a dependent variable based on the changes of an independent variable.

Example 2: Let’s say you have to study the relationship between the age and the systolic blood pressure in a company. You have a sample of 10 workers aged thirty to fifty-five years. The results are presented in the following bivariate data table.

Bivariate data is most often displayed using a scatter plot. This is a plot on a grid paper of y (y-axis) against x (x-axis) and indicates the behavior of given data sets. Scatter plot is one of the popular types of graphs that give us a much more clear picture of a possible relationship between the variables. Let’s build our Scatter Plot based on the table above:

Let’s build our Scatter Plot based on the table above: The above scatter plot illustrates that the values seem to group around a straight line i.e it shows that there is a possible linear relationship between the age and systolic blood pressure. You can create scatter plots very easily with a variety of free graphing software available online. What does this graph show us? It is obvious that there is a relationship between age and blood pressure and moreover this relationship is positive (i.e. we have positive correlation). The older the age, the higher the systolic blood pressure.

It is obvious that there is a relationship between age and blood pressure and moreover this relationship is positive (i.e. we have positive correlation). The older the age, the higher the systolic blood pressure. The line that you see in the graph is called “line of best fit” (or the regression line). The line of best fit aims to answer the question whether these two variables correlate. It can be used to help you determine trends within the data sets. Furthermore, the line of best fit illustrates the strength of the correlation. We have strong correlation when there is little space between the data points and the line.

If the data points are spread quite far away from the line of best fit, we say we have a weak correlation. More on scatter plots you can find in our post “ what does a scatter plot show “. Let’s investigate further. We constated that in our example, there is a positive and strong linear relationship between age and blood pressure.

More on scatter plots you can find in our post “ what does a scatter plot show “. Let’s investigate further. We constated that in our example, there is a positive and strong linear relationship between age and blood pressure. However, how strong is that relationship? What is its strength? This is where the correlation coefficient comes to answer this question. The correlation coefficient (R) is a numerical value measured between -1 and 1. It indicates the strength of the linear relationship between two given variables.

The correlation coefficient (R) is a numerical value measured between -1 and 1. It indicates the strength of the linear relationship between two given variables. For describing a linear regression, the coefficient is called Pearson’s correlation coefficient. When the correlation coefficient is closer to 1 it shows a strong positive relationship. When it is close to -1, there is a strong negative relationship. A value of 0 tells us that there is no relationship. We need to calculate our correlation coefficient between age and blood pressure.

There is a long formula (for Pearson’s correlation coefficient) for this but you don’t need to remember it. All you need to do is to use a free or premium calculator such as those on www.socscistatistics.com . When we put our bivariate data on this calculator we got the following result: R = 0.8435 The value of the correlation coefficient (R) is 0.8435. It shows a strong positive correlation.

Now, let’s calculate the equation of the regression line (the best fit line) to find out the slope of the line. For that purpose let’s remind the simple linear regression equation: Y = Β0 + Β1X Where: X – the value of the independent variable, Y – the value of the dependent variable. Β0 – is a constant (shows the value of Y when the value of X=0) Β1 – the regression coefficient (shows how much Y changes for each unit change in X) Again, we will use the same online software ( socscistatistics.com) to calculate the linear regression equation.

So, from the above bivariate data analysis example that includes workers of the company, we can say that blood pressure increased as the age increased. This indicates that age is a significant factor that influences the change of blood pressure. Other popular positive bivariate data correlation examples are:

This indicates that age is a significant factor that influences the change of blood pressure. Other popular positive bivariate data correlation examples are: temperature and the amount of the ice cream sales, alcohol consumption and cholesterol levels, weights and heights of college students, and etc. Let’s see bivariate data analysis examples for a negative correlation. Example 3: The below bivariate data table shows the number of student absences and their final grades in a class. Student Number of Absences Final Grades 1 0 90 2 1 85 3 1 88 4 2 84 5 3 82 6 3 80 7 4 75 8 5 60 9 6 72 10 7 64 It is quite obvious that these two variables have a negative correlation between them.

When the number of student absences increases, the final grades decrease. Now, let’s plot the bivariate data from the table on a scatter plot and to create the best-fit line: Note how the regression line looks – it has a downward slope. This downward slope indicates there is a negative linear association. We can calculate the correlation coefficient and linear regression equation.

More on how to calculate median, you can see on our post descriptive statistics examples. Step 3: Find the middle points of the two halves divided by the median (find the upper and lower quartiles). Step 4: Find the extreme values. This is the easiest part. You need to find the largest and smallest data values. Extreme values = 54 and 95. So, we can determine that the five-number summary for the class of students is 54, 70, 80, 88, 95. Now we are absolutely ready to draw our box and whisker plot.

This is the easiest part. You need to find the largest and smallest data values. Extreme values = 54 and 95. So, we can determine that the five-number summary for the class of students is 54, 70, 80, 88, 95. Now we are absolutely ready to draw our box and whisker plot. As you see, the plot is divided into four groups: a lower whisker, a lower box half, an upper box half, and an upper whisker. Each of those groups shows 25% of the data because we have an equal amount of data in each group. Interpreting the box and whisker plot results: The box and whisker plot shows that 50% of the students have scores between 70 and 88 points.

Interpreting the box and whisker plot results: The box and whisker plot shows that 50% of the students have scores between 70 and 88 points. In addition, 75% scored lower than 88 points, and 50% have test results above 80. So, if you have test results somewhere in the lower whisker, you may need to study more. It was among the simplest box and whisker plot examples just to illustrate what the plot shows. Let’s deep further and see double box and whisker plot examples that help you to compare 2 data sets.

Example 2: comparative double box and whisker plot Suppose an IT company has two stores that sell computers. The company recorded the number of sales each store made each month. In the past 12 months, we have the following numbers of sold computers: Store 1: 350, 460, 20, 160, 580, 250, 210, 120, 200, 510, 290, 380.

The middle in our case belongs to sixth + seventh data points e.g. 250 and 290. And the formula for the median in an even data set is: (the sum of the two middle numbers) / 2 The median is (250 + 290) / 2 = 270 Now let’s see what happens with the lower and upper quartiles in an even data set: There are six numbers below the median, namely: 20, 120, 160, 200, 210, 250. Lower quartile is the median of these six items, so = (third + fourth data point) / 2 = (160 + 200) / 2 = 180 There are also six numbers above the median, namely:

On this page you will learn: What is categorical data? Definition and key characteristics. List of 22 examples of categorical data. Categorical data vs numerical data. Infographic in PDF Let’s define it: As you might guess, categorical data is data that is divided into groups or categories. These categories are based on qualitative characteristics such as gender and colors or something else that doesn’t have a number associated with it. This doesn’t mean that categorical data cannot have numerical values. In fact, categorical data often takes numerical values, but those numbers don’t have any mathematical meaning.

They just represent the number of items in each group. For example 12 blondes in a class. This makes it possible to do categorical data analysis and different manipulations, particularly in a spreadsheet application. There is no order to categorical values and variables. To put it in another way, they aren’t ranked from highest to lowest.

Bar charts and pie charts are great tools for comparing two or more categorical values against each other. They just represent the number of things in a category. For example, if you want to display the number of workers in a company, the outcomes can be presented on a pie chart or on a bar graph.

Graphical categorical data examples: Survey on “What Motivates Employees to Work Better?” Before creating a pie or bar chart, you should check if data are in counts or percentages. To make a graphical display of categorical data, it is a necessary condition. Analysis of categorical data very often includes data tables.

To make a graphical display of categorical data, it is a necessary condition. Analysis of categorical data very often includes data tables. The values are represented as a two-way table or contingency table by counting the number of items that are into each category. Here is an example of a categorical data two-way table for a group of 50 people. The table shows the results of the groups formed by counting the hair and eye color of each person. Two-way and contingency tables are great tools for seeing how two categorical variables are related. The table represents the counts or percentages of persons who belong to a group for two or more quantitative variables.

Categorical and Quantitative (Numerical) Data: Difference Sometimes, it is difficult to distinguish between categorical and quantitative data. Quantitative data is measured and expressed numerically. It has numerical meaning and is used in calculations and arithmetic. That is why the other name of quantitative data is numerical. Examples of quantitative data are: weight, temperature, height, GPA, annual income, number of hours spent working and etc. More examples you can see on the ThoughtGo article “Quantitative Data”.
