Question
1. Imagine you're working as a behavioral researcher for a popular organization and you've been tasked with collecting data from 10 people in a specific setting related to a topic of your choosing (e.g., social media use, exercise, screen time, sleep patterns, etc.). Each person will provide a score representing their behavior in your selected context (we're just pretending).
2. First, describe your study. Then, please "collect the data'' from the 10 people (i.e., come up with the 10 scores) and how to design a frequency table or a histogram to represent the distribution visually. Calculate the mean, median, and mode of the distribution you created. Discuss how these measures help you understand the central tendencies of the data and identify any possible outliers or extreme scores.
3. Is the distribution symmetrical, positively skewed, or negatively skewed? How might skewed data affect the interpretation of the results in your study? Which measure(s) of central tendency (mean, median, or mode) do you believe are best suited for describing people's behavior in your chosen context? Please consider the advantages and limitations of each measure and how they help present a complete view of the dataset.
