7. Research questions

The Titanic dataset concerns whether relatively more men than women survived the disaster. This question has been discussed in Chapters 3 and 4 in the examples. At the same time, the crosstab has been discussed extensively.

The Titanic dataset has more variables that allow interesting questions to be asked. For example, there was a connection between survival and class.

These and other questions can be investigated with datasets using statistical apps.

 

Dataset

There is one dataset titanc6.json available. The original Titanic dataset with the core data is supplemented with variables derived from existing variables. For example, the ages are divided into groups of different class widths so you can set age (s) against categorical variables.
 

Crosstabs
You can create a crosstab in the Data Analysis app, and look absolutely and relatively.
You can then "forward" that crosstab to the Cross Table app.
In that app, you can also enter and edit crosstabs.

Statistical apps

There are three apps for analyzing datasets and crosstabs.
The Data Analysis app allows you to create summaries and charts, to group data, create crosstabs, and deduce other data from existing data.
In the Crosstab Analysis app, you can create different types of bar charts and mosaic plots, as well as measures to evaluate a crosstab.
The Resampling crosstabs app allows you to estimate measures that allow you to judge a crosstab value by simulations.

In the Data Analysis app you opens a dataset in the menu:
File> Datasets> Select a dataset

 
In the other apps you open a dataset in the Hamburger menu hamburger
Datasets  > select a table

 

Export of data, diagrams and tables

It is possible to save datasets and tables for later use.

You can select a chart or table as a picture to print or paste into a document.

To do this, see the section under Info, section export
