1. Why do we need to gather data?
2. What are the steps in collecting

data?
3. What is the importance of
following the procedures in
collecting data?
“How do researchers make
sense of the data they
collect?”
“Why is it important to
analyze data correctly?”
 Learning Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, students will be able to:
 Define key statistical tools and methods used
for data analysis.
 Appreciate the role of statistical analysis in
drawing meaningful conclusions from data.
 Practice formulating a hypothesis and
selecting statistical methods for analysis
based on a given dataset or research
question.
Relationship of Study habits and student
performance
WHAT TO ASK:
What is the research questions?
Is there a hypothesis?
What will be the appropriate statistical tools to
use?
 Data analysis in research is a process in which gathered
information are summarized in such a manner that it will
yield answers to the research questions. During
quantitative data analysis gathered information were break
down and ordered into categories in order to draw trends
or patterns in a certain condition. In quantitative research,
the numerical data collected is not taken as a whole. In
order to understand it better, it is analyzed into
components based on the chosen research variables and
research questions you are going to answer.
 These numerical data are usually subject to statistical
treatment depending on the nature of data and the type of
research problem presented. The statistical treatment
makes explicit the different statistical methods and
formulas needed to analyze the research data.
 Before choosing what statistical test is appropriate for your
research study it is important to determine what statistical
formation is applicable to your current study. In immersing
yourself into planning your data analysis, you have to
decide what basic descriptive statistical technique you are
going to use. Although this technique does not give you the
degree of association or effect between variables, this will
help you to code and simply tabulate your data.
 Descriptive Statistical Technique provides a summary of
the ordered or sequenced data from your research sample.
Examples of these tools are frequency distribution,
measure of central tendencies (mean, median, mode), and
standard deviation. Inferential Statistics is used when the
research study focuses on finding predictions; testing
hypothesis; and finding interpretations, generalizations,
and conclusions. Since this statistical method is more
complex and has more advanced mathematical
computations, you can use computer software to aid your
analysis.
 You also must identify types of statistical analysis of
variable in your quantitative research. A univariate
analysis means analysis of one variable. Analysis of two
variables such as independent and dependent variables
refer to bivariate analysis while the multivariate analysis
involves analysis of the multiple relations between multiple
variables.
Test of Relationship between Two Variables
➢ Pearson’s r (parametric)
➢ Phi coefficient (non-parametric for nominal
and dichotomous variables)
➢ Spearman’s rho (non-parametric for ordinal
variable)
Test of Difference between Two Data Sets
from One Group
➢ T-test for dependent samples (parametric)
➢ McNemar change test (non-parametric for
nominal and dichotomous variables)
➢ Wilcoxon signed-rank test (non-parametric
for ordinal variable)
Test of Difference between Two Data Sets
from Two Different Groups
➢ T-test for independent samples (parametric)
➢ Two-way chi-square (non-parametric for
nominal variable)
➢ Mann-Whitney U test (non-parametric for
ordinal variable)
Test More than Two Population Means
➢ Analysis of Variance or ANOVA (parametric)
Test the Strength of Relation or Effect or

Impact
➢ Regression (parametric)
 Write your data analysis using the template.
 What are some examples of statistical tools used in
data analysis?
 Why is it important to select the correct statistical
methods when analyzing data?
 In what ways might understanding data analysis
and hypothesis testing help you in making
informed decisions in everyday life (e.g.,
evaluating survey results or making data-driven
decisions in business)?
3 key steps in hypothesis testing.
2 statistical methods that can be used
for data analysis.
1 question they still have about
choosing the correct statistical test
for analysis.
