Biostatistics, statistics homework help

Work Sheet #2 Name(s): Solution Key

The following data are IQ scores from a study comparing twins raised by biological parents to those raised by foster parents. The reference is Burt, C. (1966) The genetic determination of differences in intelligence: A study of monozygotic twins reared together and apart. British Journal of Psychology 57, 137-153. According to documentation in the statistical package R (data set BURT in package car), ‘The “data” were simply (and notoriously) manufactured.’ In addition, I changed one of the values. The numerals in square brackets, e.g., [1], are not part of the data.

[1] 82 80 88 108 116 117 147 71 75 93

[11] 95 88 111 63 77 86 83 93 97 87

[21] 94 96 112 113 106 107 98

  • Make a stem plot of these data.
  • Find the five number summary and IQR. When finding Q1 and Q3, use the algorithm for these quartiles (not the method for finding the 25th and 75th percentiles).
  • Make a boxplot of these data making sure neither whisker is too long.
