PSYA01H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Dependent And Independent Variables, Average Absolute Deviation
Document Summary
* central tendency -> the typical, average or normal. M. a. d (mean absolute deviation) of each data point from the mean of numbers measures variability. Variance of each point is squared deviation of each data point from the mean also measure variability. * positive relation i. e. the taller one is the heavier they are. The higher the independent variable is, the higher the dependent variable is. The higher one variable is, the lower another variable is and vice versa. Different direction i. e. as women get taller, the less attractive they are.
