Learn By Doing – One Categorical Variable (College Student Survey)
The same survey that asked 1,200 U.S. college students about their body perception also asked the following question:
“With whom do you find it easiest to make friends?” (opposite sex, same sex, or no difference).
In this activity we will use the following results from this collected data:
- Frequency Distribution with percentages
- Bar Chart
- Pie Chart
If you wish to analyze this data yourself, you can download the data in either Excel or CSV format. (friends.xls, friends.csv)
