    1. Statistical methods help researchers design studies and analyze collected data. They determine the validity of research instruments and organize raw data for analysis. 2. Statistics are used to test hypotheses and give meaning to research findings. Statistical procedures determine the significance of measures like the mean, median, and mode. 3. Common statistical analyses include calculating the mean, median, mode, and Pearson correlation. The mean is the average, median is the middle value, and mode is the most frequent value. Correlation measures the relationship between two variables.

    ROLES OF STATISTICS

    IN RESEARCH
    By: Jevan Ayco Calaque
    Roles of Statistics in Research
    1. Statistical Methods help the research in making his research design,
    particularly in experimental research. Statistical method always
    involved in planning a research projects because in some way
    statistics direct the researcher how to gather his data.
    2. Statistical techniques help the research in determining the validity
    and reliability of his research instruments.
    3. Statistical manipulation organize raw data systematically to make
    the latter appropriate for study.
    4. Statistics are used to test hypotheses.
    5. Statistical treatment give meaning and interpretation to data.
    6. Statistical procedures are indispensable in determining the levels of
    significance of vital statistical measures.
