Sample size, Median and Standard Deviation were used to describe the length of labor in the experimental group and Population, Median, and Standard Deviation were used to describe length of labor in the control group. Because length of labor is considered an interval level of measurement, using these statistics were appropriate. 3. What other statistic could have been used to describe the length of labor?

...Geraldo Gutierrez Gomez Grand Canyon University HLT-362V September 6, 2015 Professor: Steve Austin Workbook Exercise 11 to 16 Statistics Class 1. What demographics variables were measured at least at interval level measurement? The demographics variables measured at least on the interval level measurement were the number of hours per week and length of labor hours. 2. What statistics were used to describe the length of labor in this study? Where these appropriate? The mean and standard deviation were used to describe the length of labor of for both group the control and experimental group. I agree these were appropriate measures of statistics. 3. What other statistics could have been used to describe the length of labor? Provide rationale for your answer. In my opinion in addition to the mean and standard deviation, the mode could be used in this study to also describe the length of labor. It will give us and idea of how long the common length of labor was. The median could also been used, but in my opinion will not be more beneficial to knowing the average and the most common length of hours on the control and experimental groups. 4. Were the distributions of scores similar for the experimental and control groups for the length of labor? Provide rationale for your answer. The standard deviation for the experimental group was 7.78(length of hours) and for the control group was 7.2(length of hours).By looking at the scores of the standard deviation my opinion...
