Home Assignment

Using the same data file of the previous home assignment.
Discuss normality of the variable: mean anatomy score (of first and second year), your answer should include comment on the 4 topics we used to evaluate normality.

Submit your answer as a comment in this post below.

1- Mean and Median:
* Mean = 80.3
* Median = 82.2
* They are almost near from each other.

2- Histogram:

3- Kurtosis and Skewness:
* There is Negative Skew (to the left) = -1.2
* And there is positive kurtosis = +0.43

4- Q-Q Plot:
* It shows that the variant is away from normal distribution within the range ( -6 & +4 )

1- mean and median are close (mean = 80.36 , median = 82.25)

2- histogram nearly has a normal distribution, slightly skewed to the left

3- skewness : -1.24,
kurtosis : 0.463

4- Q-Q plot shows that the observed values are away from the expected values by a scale of 7.27

1- Mean and Median :
Mean = 80.34
Median = 82.25
SD = 7.28
median is far from mean .

2 - skewness and kurtosis :
Skewness = - 1.233
kurtosis = 0.430
Not bad

3 - Normal distribution curve :
there is skewness to the left .

4 - Q_Q plot :
Observed value are away from the expected Value .

1- (mean = 80.36 , median = 82.25) close values

2- histogram shows A normal distribution Curve with a slight skewness to the left

3- skewness : -1.24,
kurtosis : 0.463
both are good values

4- Q-Q plot : shows that observed values are away from the expected values

1- Mean and Median:
* Mean = 80.3611
* Median = 82.2500
* They are near to each other .

2- Histogram:
Normal distribution curve with slight Skewness to the left

3- Kurtosis and Skewness:
* There is Negative Skew (to the left) = -1.244
* And there is positive kurtosis = +0.463

4- Q-Q Plot:
* It shows that the observed values are away from the expected values within the range ( -6 & +4 )

Name: Amr Shokry

1-Histogram is in normal distribution bell shaped but with a slight negative skewness

2-Mean and Median

Mean= 80.34
Median= 82.25
so i think they are near each other


3- Skewness and kurtosis

negative skew= 1.233
kurtosis= 0.430

they are witihn acceptable range so the data seems valid :)



4-Q-Q plot
shows many variations from the expected value ... only one point that is nearly around it


Amr Ashraf said...

1-mean and median
*mean = 80.36
*median= 82.25
they are close to each other

2-skewness and kurtosis
*skewness = -1.24
*kurtosis = 0.46
lies between +2 & _2 so it is accepted to be normal

3-Histogram
normal distribution curve with slight skewness to the left

4-Q-Q Plot
observed values are away from the expected values

Name: Essam

Mean : 82.36
Median: 82.25

Skewness :-1.22
Kurtosis : .463


Histogram : Skewed to the Left

Q-Q plot : ( Don't know how to comment on the Plot by wards ) ..

Ahmad Majid Dief said...

1-Mean is 80.34
Median is 82.25
SD is 7.28
(Not Close To each other)

2-Skewness -1.233
Kurtosis .430
skewness not bad
Kurtosis nearly normal
so Both may Be accepted

3-Histogram
Shows some sort of skewness to the left


4-Q-Q plot
Data away from expected normal curve


According to all these 4 Items I think the variable not distributed normally.

reem mohsen

Mean:76.1142
Median 81.5000
Skewness -3.512
Kurtosis 13.629

Q&Q show it is abnormal

انا مش عارفة ليه النتيجة بتاعتى مختلفة عن كل الناس !!!!

"Determining normality of distribution of mean anatomy score for participants in MSRG (n=18)"

1- Histogram shape: sort of similarity to normal distribution curve

2- Mean and median:
Mean: 80.3428
Median:82.2500
difference= 1.9072
SD= 7.28170
difference/SD= 26.2% (significant distance between median and mean)

3- Skewness & Kurtosis:
-Negative Skewness: -1.233 (not bad)
-positive kurtosis: 0.430 (nearly normal)

4- QQ-plot:
observed values are scattered around normal values with majority of data deviating from normal by 0 to ±4

1- mean is 80.3 and median is 82.2 I think they are slightly not approximated to each other because Standard deviation is just 7.2

2- skewness is - 1.24 some negative skew but it`s not bad
kurtosis is 0.46 little +ve kurtosis nearly normal

3- Histogram from my point of view is not similar to normal distribution histogram

4-Q-Q plot 1st figure show that values don`t take the normal line of normal distribution
2nd figure shows that a lot of values are far from what expected
