Goals In the statistics course, the main purpose is to make predictions about the future using numerical data and to understand and interpret the analysis outputs. In the course, in which basic statistics concepts will be taught together with case studies, it is aimed that students will understand statistical methods and acquire the ability to use the appropriate data analysis method.
Course Content Introduction to Statistics and Basic Concepts Frequency Distributions (Histograms, Frequency Polygons) Averages (Arithmetic, Geometric, Squared and Harmonic) Other Measures of Central Tendency (Mode, Median, and Quartiles) Standard Deviation and Mean Deviation (Excel and SPSS Applications) Other Measures of Dispersion (Coefficient of Variation and Adjusted Variance) moments Skewness, Kurtosis and SPSS Applications Permutation and Current Applications Combination and Current Applications Probability Theory and Its Applications in Social Sciences Binomial Distribution and Applications Poisson Distribution and Applications Normal Distribution and SPSS Applications
