univariabel

Univariabel is a term used in statistics and data analysis to describe a situation involving a single variable. When analyzing data, a univariabel analysis focuses on understanding the characteristics and distribution of that one specific variable. This can involve calculating descriptive statistics such as the mean, median, mode, variance, and standard deviation to summarize the central tendency and spread of the data. Visualizations like histograms, box plots, and frequency tables are also common tools used in univariabel analysis to display the shape of the data's distribution and identify potential outliers. The goal is to gain insights into the behavior and patterns within that single variable without considering its relationship to any other variables. Examples of univariabel analysis include studying the distribution of heights in a population or examining the frequency of different responses on a single survey question. It forms the foundational step in many statistical investigations, providing a baseline understanding before more complex multivariate analyses are undertaken.
