... From this list, you can see that the median income is $33,450. You can also see that $12,500 is the only income that occurs more than once. So, the mode is $12,500. In Example 1, was the analyst telling the truth about the annual incomes? Technically, the person was telling the truth because the av ...

One way to cope with this problem is to code for statistical power to be concentrated on the strongest hypotheses. Often in epidemiology the variable that may be affecting the mag ...
