DATA ATTACHED

For this Assignment, you use SPSS skills and think about data in terms of biostatistics. This will be a refresher. You start to familiarize yourself with the data by providing descriptive statistics—numerical and graphical—appropriate for the level of measurement of the assigned variables. Remember, a statistical analysis is not complete without your interpretation.

The Assignment

Refer to the  Dataset (SPSS Document) attached. Use SPSS to open the dataset and complete the following:

1. Produce numeric descriptions for the following variables: Age, Sex, BMI, SCI, Stroke, and Hypertension.
   
   Be sure to use the appropriate descriptive statistics for the level of measurement of the variable (Hint: Use mean and standard deviation for continuous variables and frequency for categorical or nominal ones) 
2. Produce graphical descriptions for the variables listed in part 1. Be sure to use graphical presentations appropriate for the level of measurement of the variable. (Hint: Use Box Plots and Histograms for continuous variables and Bar charts for categorical and nominal ones) 
3. Interpret the results from parts 1 and 2. Produce a narrative that includes information on each of the variables. Again be sure that the narrative is appropriate based on the level of measurement for each variable.
