    This causes the shape of the box plot to be quite spread out with the median and quartiles close together.

When putting the male and female writing hand box plots in comparison to each other, you can see that females have a much larger range than the males as discussed before. This causes the female box plot to have a lower, lower quartile and median and a higher upper quartile. The median for males is only slightly higher than the median for females, keeping in mind that males had data from an eleven (11) year old and females had data from a forty two (42) year old. This can cause the data to be slightly swayed as there were not equal age groups for both box…

    Let´s imagine a situation. For example we have three different goals that we put on a scale in this order : 1. drinking a glass of apple juice; 2. eating an apple; 3. make a fruit apple salad. We ranked these goals ordinally. We assume that one complete apple is required to satisfy each of these goals. What will we do if we have just one apple?
