Intro to Measures of Central Tendency ~ Interactive Video - 10?s

What are the three main measures of central tendency discussed in the video?

• Median, Mode, Midpoint

• Mean, Medium, Modality

• Average, Median, Range

• Mean, Median, Mode

What does a normal distribution curve imply about the measures of central tendency?

• They are all equal

• They are all different

• Only mean is used

• Only median is used

Which measure of central tendency is most affected by extreme values?

• Mean

• All of them

• Median

• Mode

What is the best measure of central tendency for a normally distributed data set?

• None of the above

• Mode

• Median

• Mean

How is the median calculated when the data set has an odd number of values?

• Average the two middle numbers

• Choose the middle number

• Choose the most frequent number

• None of the above

Which measure is typically the best for skewed data distributions?

• None

• Mode

• Median

• Mean

Why might both mean and median be reported in a study?

• To provide a comprehensive view

• None of the above

• Due to data being normally distributed

• When data is nominal

What mnemonic can help remember how to calculate the median?

• Median sounds like mean

• Median sounds like mode

• Median sounds like medium

• Middle sounds like median

Which measure of central tendency can be used with nominal data?

• Mean

• Median

• None of the above

• Mode

What is a key characteristic of the mode?

• It is the middle value

• It is the average value

• It is the most frequent value

• It is the least frequent value
