Complete the following analysis of the CHF data set Download CHF data set .

Variable Types

Variables can be measured as categories (nominal or ordinal) or on a continuous range of scores (interval or ratio). For each of the variables in the CHF data set,

· Create a table and indicate if the variable is nominal, ordinal, ratio, or interval.

Descriptive Statistics

Using the formulas provided in the A Practical Approach to Analyzing Healthcare Data textbook or the Data Analytics Toolpak, for the admission source (admsrc), sex, discharge destination (dischdest), and patient age category (age),

· Generate the following information for each of the following descriptive statistics:

· Mean

· Standard Error

· Median

· Mode

· Standard Deviation

· Sample Variance

· Kurtosis

· Skewness

· Range

· Minimum

· Maximum

· Sum

· Count

Frequency Distribution

· Create a frequency distribution table for the admission source that includes each of the following:

· Gender

· Discharge Status

· Age Category

· Number of Diagnosis Codes

Chi Squared Test of Independence

The chi-squared test of independence is a statistical test used to test if there is a relationship between categorical (categories) data. For additional assistance calculating chi-square, review the Chi-Square Help Download Chi-Square Help resource.

Complete the following:

· Determine if there is an association between sex and admission source from the CHD data set.

· Create the null hypothesis that there is no association between the patient sex and admission source.

· Create the alternative hypothesis that there is an association between the patient sex and admission source.

· Calculate the p-value.

· Excel has a function called CHISQ.test to compute the probability of a particular chi-square value. Using the CHF data for sex and admission source, select a cell into which you want to enter the CHIQ.TEST function. Click on “Formulas,” “More functions,” “Statistical menu option” and scroll down to select “CHISQ.TEST.” Enter the sex range of values in the actual-range box. Enter the admission source range of values in the expected -range box. Click OK to calculate the p-value.

· Indicate whether you are rejecting or accepting the null hypothesis.

· A chi-square test will give you a p-value. The p-value will tell you if your test results are significant or not. A p-value of 0.05 is 5%. Small p-values, generally under 5%, usually mean you should reject the null hypothesis.

The premise of CHART (contrast, hierarchy, accuracy, relevance, truth) in Tutorial

I agree with the premise of CHART because demand for infographics moved into high gear. It is important to follow these aspects to enhance the audience’s attention toward the infographic(Allovub, 2014). It can also become the best source for promoting a business because hierarchy, accuracy, relevancy, contrast, and truth are crucial aspects of business presentations.
