Data Ware House Normalization it’s a process of splitting data into 2 or more entities to reduce data redundancy. Normal Forms: 1. A database table must contain no repeating groups 2. All non-key attributes of a table must rely on the entire key of the table. 3. All non-key fields must depend solely on the table’s primary key. First Business Normal Form: removes repeating groups to another entity. This entity takes its name and primary (compound) key attributes‚ from the original entity and forms

Concept and basics of probability sampling methods One of the most important issues in researches is selecting an appropriate sample. Among sampling methods‚ probability sample are of much importance since most statistical tests fit on to this type of sampling method. Representativeness and generalize-ability will be achieved well with probable samples from a population‚ although the matter of low feasibility of a probable sampling method or high cost‚ don’t allow us to use it and shift us to the

Types of Sampling In applications: Probability Sampling: Simple Random Sampling‚ Stratified Random Sampling‚ Multi-Stage Sampling * What is each and how is it done? * How do we decide which to use? * How do we analyze the results differently depending on the type of sampling? Non-probability Sampling: Why don’t we use non-probability sampling schemes? Two reasons: * We can’t use the mathematics of probability to analyze the results. * In general‚ we can’t count on a non-probability

The key is the use of statistically derived random sampling procedures. These ensure that survey results can be defended as statistically representative of the population. Surveys that do not follow these procedures can produce results that lead to misguided market research‚ strategic‚ or policy decisions. Any so-called "survey" in which no attempt is made to randomly select respondents‚ such as call-in readers’ or viewers’ "polls"‚ is likely to produce results that in no way reflect overall public

Steps in the data preparation process. Editing involves reviewing questionnaires to increase accuracy and precision. It consists of screening questionnaires to identify illegible‚ incomplete‚ inconsistent‚ or ambiguous responses. Responses may be illegible if they have been poorly recorded‚ such as answers to unstructured or open-ended questions. Likewise‚ questionnaires may be incomplete to varying degrees. A few or many questions may be unanswered. At this stage‚ the researcher makes a preliminary
