Discussion and reply:QUALICOPC
You have been assigned a topic according to the first letter of your last name. Please identify the topic assigned to you below. For each topic, find a health science example of it in a published research study or news article. Summarize how your topic is used in the example. Do you think a different data type would be better? (Please note: You may wish to use the Library to find your example for this Discussion Board. A librarian is available should you need assistance.)
Although not required, it is recommended that you plan your reply posts so that you reply to topics that you did not cover within your main post.
(for last names beginning with A–H): Identify a phenomenon with a lot of variation. Is variation related to variance—if so, how? How is variance related to the standard deviation?
(for last names beginning with Q–Z): Using the Library, find an example of measures of spread in a peer-reviewed journal. Identify the measures and describe how it is used. Why do you think the author(s) used that particular measure?
