The student will compare and contrast empirical data and a theoretical distribution to determine if Terry Vogel's lap times fit a continuous distribution.
Directions:
Round the relative frequencies and probabilities to 4 decimal places. Carry all other decimal answers to 2 places.
Collect the data
Use the data from
Terri Vogel’s Log Book . Use a Stratified Sampling Method by Lap (Races 1 – 20) and a random number generator to pick 6 lap times from each stratum. Record the lap times below for Laps 2 – 7.

Construct a histogram. Make 5 - 6 intervals. Sketch the graph using a ruler and pencil. Scale the axes.
Calculate the following.
Draw a smooth curve through the tops of the bars of the histogram. Use 1 – 2 complete sentences to describe the general shape of the curve. (Keep it simple. Does the graph go straight across, does it have a V-shape, does it have a hump in the middle or at either end, etc.?)
Analyze the distribution
Using your sample mean, sample standard deviation, and histogram to help, what was the approximate theoretical distribution of the data?
~
How does the histogram help you arrive at the approximate distribution?
Describe the data
Use the Data from the section titled "Collect the Data" to complete the following statements.
The IQR goes from __________ to __________.
IQR = __________. (IQR=Q3-Q1)
The 15th percentile is:
The 85th percentile is:
The median is:
The empirical probability that a randomly chosen lap time is more than 130 seconds =
Explain the meaning of the 85th percentile of this data.
Theoretical distribution
Using the theoretical distribution from the section titled "Analyse the Distribution" complete the following statements:
The IQR goes from __________ to __________.
IQR =
The 15th percentile is:
The 85th percentile is:
The median is:
The probability that a randomly chosen lap time is more than 130 seconds =
Explain the meaning of the 85th percentile of this distribution.
Discussion questions
Do the data from the section titled "Collect the Data" give a close approximation to the theoretical distibution in the section titled "Analyze the Distribution"? In complete sentences and comparing the result in the sections titled "Describe the Data" and "Theoretical Distribution", explain why or why not.
Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.

Every time someone flushes a toilet in the apartment building, the person begins to jumb back automatically after hearing the flush, before the water temperature changes. Identify the types of learning, if it is classical conditioning identify the NS, UCS, CS and CR. If it is operant conditioning, identify the type of consequence positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement or punishment
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.

I am taking this course because I am hoping that I could somehow learn more about my chosen field of interest and due to the fact that being a PsyD really ignites my passion as an individual the more I hope to learn about developing and literally explore the complexity of my critical thinking skills
hello. autism is a umbrella term. autistic kids have different disorder overlapping. for example. a kid may show symptoms of ADHD and also learning disabilities.
before treatment please make sure the kid doesn't have physical disabilities like hearing..vision..speech problem. sometimes these

continue..
sometimes due to these physical problems..the diagnosis may be misdiagnosed.
treatment for autism.
well it depends on the severity.
since autistic kids have problems in communicating and adopting to the environment.. it's best to expose the child in situations where the child

child interact with other kids under doc supervision.
play therapy.
speech therapy.
Engaging in different activities that activate most parts of the brain.. like drawing..painting. matching color board game.
string and beads game.
the more you interact with the child the more effective

results you'll get..
please consult a therapist to know what suits best on your child.
and last as a parent. I know sometimes it's overwhelming to guide a special kid.
but trust the process and be strong and patient as a parent.
