Title: Re: Average age of htgth members (Jarmo) Post by: Skeba on February 15, 2007, 01:06:30 PM I'd say about 7,6%. Or a bit more or less... There are error limits to these kinds of things you know (in this case about 1,19%).

Title: Re: Average age of htgth members (Jarmo) Post by: Krispy Kreme on February 16, 2007, 01:50:52 AM The correct question to ask is not the average age, but the median age (one-half above, one-half below, the cut off point). Average age in this context makes no sense. If you have a significant percentage who are 45, let's say, and another significant percentage who are 15, the "average" may be 30, but that really tells you nothing. So you really want to know the median age. If more statistics are forthcoming we can do some really interesting statistical analyses! ;D

No that is not correct. Median is one-half? above, one? half? below. If? you used the 20-24 category, that would include all categories? below? it, which comes to 64 percent of the sample, so that is overweighted. Thus, that cannot be the median. To get the median, you need? to have the number? of people in each age, not each age category. Then you can calculate the median. Trust me, I use? statistics a lot in my work, so I know what? I am talking about.? ? |
