Scientific Disciplinary Sector (SSD)

SECS-S/01 - STATISTICS

Period

Primo semestre (lauree) dal Sep 19, 2022 al Jan 13, 2023.

Learning objectives

The course aims to provide the basic techniques of descriptive statistics, probability calculus and statistical inference for undergraduate students in business and economic sciences, who have acquired the necessary preliminary mathematical notions. Overall, these techniques provide the necessary toolkit for the quantitative analysis of processes related to the observation of collective phenomena. From a practical point of view, these techniques are necessary for descriptive, interpretative and decision-making purposes for conducting statistical surveys related to economic and social phenomena. In addition to providing the necessary mathematical statistics apparatus, the course aims at providing conceptual tools for a critical evaluation of the methodologies considered. At the end of the lessons, the student must be able to use the tools learned to conduct statistical analyses relating to economic and social phenomena.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Students are supposed to have acquired math knowledge of basic concepts like limit, derivative and integral.

Program

a) DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS
• Data collection and classification; data types.
• Frequency distributions; histograms and charts.
• Measures of central tendency; arithmetic mean, geometric mean and harmonic mean; median; quartiles and
percentiles.
• Variability and measures of dispersion; variance and standard deviation; coefficient of variation.
• Moments; indices of skewness and kurtosis.
• Multivariate distributions; scatterplots; covariance; variance of the sum of more variables.
• Multivariate frequency distributions; conditional distributions; chi-squared index of dependence; Simpson’s
paradox.
• Method of least squares; least-squares regression line; Pearson’s coefficient of linear correlation; Cauchy-Schwarz
inequality; R^2 coefficient; total, explained and residual deviance.
b) PROBABILITY
• Random experiments; sample space; random events and operations; combinatorics.
• Conditional probability; independence; Bayes' theorem.
• Discrete and continuous random variables; distribution function; expectation and variance; Markov and

Special continuous distributions: continuous uniform, Gaussian, exponential.
• Multivariate discrete random variables; joint probability distribution; marginal and conditional probability
distributions; independence; covariance; correlation coefficient.
• Linear combinations of random variables; average of independent random variables; sum of independent, Gaussian
random variables.
• Weak law of large numbers; Bernoulli’s law of large numbers for relative frequencies; central limit theorem.
c) INFERENTIAL STATISTICS
• Sample statistics and sampling distributions; Chi-square distribution; Student's t distribution; Snedecor's F
distribution.
• Point estimates and estimators; unbiasedness, efficiency, consistency; estimate of a mean, of a proportion, of a
variance.
• Confidence intervals for a mean, for a proportion (large samples) and for a variance.
• Hypothesis testing; one and two tails tests for a mean, for a proportion (large samples) and for a variance;
hypothesis testing for differences between two means, two proportions (large samples) and two variances.

Didactic methods

The course includes 84 hours of frontal teaching, of which 48 hours of lessons (equal to 6 CFU) and 36 hours of exercises (equal to 3 CFU).

Learning assessment procedures

The exam can be passed through two partial written tests or one general written test.
Contents, assessment methods and criteria for partial written tests:
The first partial written test focuses on the part of the program explained until the break at the end of October, typically on Descriptive Statistics and part of Probability (cf. the program of the course). The second partial written test focuses on the rest of the program. The topics of the program on which each partial written test is based will be defined in detail in due course. The bonus earned by the student when passing the first partial written test can be used to access the second partial written test in ONLY ONE of the two exam sessions of January and February. In case of
- student's withdrawal during the second partial written test
- failing of the second partial written test
- failing of the total exam due to a final exam grade less than 18/30 (cf. assessment methods and criteria for partial written tests)
the exam can be subsequently taken ONLY through a general written test.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

Both partial written tests include exercises and theoretical questions. Each partial written test is passed if the score is greater than or equal to 15/30. If both partial written tests are passed, the final exam mark results from the weighted average (eventually rounded up to the least greater integer) of the grades obtained in the single partial written tests. The exam is passed if this average is greater than or equal to 18/30. If the total score obtained is greater than or equal to 15 and less than 18, the student may take an additional oral test. There is the possibility to take an optional oral test for those who have obtained a score greater than or equal to 18/30. Date and time of the oral test will be promptly communicated after the written test.
Contents, assessment methods and criteria for general written test:
The general written test covers all topics of the program and includes exercises and theoretical questions. The exam is passed if the score is greater than or equal to 18/30. If the grade earned is greater than or equal to 15 and less than 18, the student may take an additional oral test. There is the possibility to take an optional oral test for those who have obtained a score greater than or equal to 18/30. Date and time of the oral test will be promptly communicated after the written test.
Contents, assessment methods and criteria are the same for attending and non-attending students.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

Type D and Type F activities

Nei piani didattici di ciascun Corso di studio è previsto l’obbligo di conseguire un certo numero di crediti formativi mediante attività a scelta (chiamate anche "di tipologia D e F").

Oltre che in insegnamenti previsti nei piani didattici di altri corsi di studio e in certificazioni linguistiche o informatiche secondo quanto specificato nei regolamenti di ciascun corso, tali attività possono consistere anche in iniziative extracurriculari di contenuto vario, quali ad esempio la partecipazione a un seminario o a un ciclo di seminari, la frequenza di laboratori didattici, lo svolgimento di project work, stage aggiuntivo, eccetera.

Come per ogni altra attività a scelta, è necessario che anche queste non costituiscano un duplicato di conoscenze e competenze già acquisite dallo studente.

Quelle elencate in questa pagina sono le iniziative extracurriculari che sono state approvate dal Consiglio della Scuola di Economia e Management e quindi consentono a chi vi partecipa l'acquisizione dei CFU specificati, alle condizioni riportate nelle pagine di dettaglio di ciascuna iniziativa.

Si ricorda in proposito che:
- tutte queste iniziative richiedono, per l'acquisizione dei relativi CFU, il superamento di una prova di verifica delle competenze acquisite, secondo le indicazioni contenute nella sezione "Modalità d'esame" della singola attività;
- lo studente è tenuto a inserire nel proprio piano degli studi l'attività prescelta e a iscriversi all'appello appositamente creato per la verbalizzazione, la cui data viene stabilita dal docente di riferimento e pubblicata nella sezione "Modalità d'esame" della singola attività.

COMPETENZE TRASVERSALI
Scopri i percorsi formativi promossi dal  Teaching and learning centre dell'Ateneo, destinati agli studenti iscritti ai corsi di laurea, volti alla promozione delle competenze trasversali: https://talc.univr.it/it/competenze-trasversali

ATTENZIONE: Per essere ammessi a sostenere una qualsiasi attività didattica, inlcuse quelle a scelta, è necessario essere iscritti all'anno di corso in cui essa viene offerta. Si raccomanda, pertanto, ai laureandi delle sessioni di dicembre e aprile di NON svolgere attività extracurriculari del nuovo anno accademico, cui loro non risultano iscritti, essendo tali sessioni di laurea con validità riferita all'anno accademico precedente. Quindi, per attività svolte in un anno accademico cui non si è iscritti, non si potrà dar luogo a riconoscimento di CFU.
