In statistics, several tools are used to interpret the data. Measures of central tendency represent the characteristics of the data, such as mean, median, and mode. Additionally, measures of variance like standard deviation and range are used to find the spread of data from the mean. Relative standing measures the distance between data locations. Commonly used measures of relative standings are percentile, z score, and quartiles.
Percentiles are a type of fractile that partition data into...

Anatomical Positions

21.0K
In anatomy, several standard anatomical positions are used as references for describing the position and orientation of different body parts. These positions help provide a common frame of reference when discussing anatomical structures. The anatomical position is the standard reference point for describing the body's position and orientation. In this position:
The body is upright, facing forward, and standing erect.
The feet are parallel and flat on the floor.
The arms are hanging by the...

Ranks

Unlike parametric methods, nonparametric statistics are ideal for nominal and ordinal data, requiring fewer assumptions about the population's nature or distribution. This makes nonparametric methods easier to apply and interpret, as they do not depend on parameters like mean or standard deviation. One common approach in nonparametric analysis is to sort data according to a specific criterion. For instance, we might arrange weather data from hottest to coldest days in a month or rank cities...

Percentile

9.6K
A percentile indicates the relative standing of a data value when data are sorted into numerical order from smallest to largest. It represents the percentages of data values that are less than or equal to the pth percentile. For example, 15% of data values are less than or equal to the 15th percentile.

Directional Terms

17.7K
Directional terms are essential for describing the relative locations of different body structures. For instance, an anatomist might describe one band of tissue as "inferior to" another, or a physician might describe a tumor as "superficial to" a deeper body structure. These terms often use comparative terms in pairs to trace out the relative locations of one body part to another or descriptions of body tissues like the deeper ones from superficially present with reference to...

Position and Displacement

29.0K
The position of an object defines its location relative to a convenient frame of reference at any particular time. A frame of reference is an arbitrary set of axes from which the position and motion of an object are described. Earth is often used as a frame of reference, and we often describe the position of an object as it relates to stationary objects on Earth. For example, a rocket launch could be described in terms of the position of the rocket with respect to Earth as a whole. On the other...

Summary

The Collaborative Family Healthcare Association (CFHA) opposes North Carolina

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Policy
  • Social Determinants of Health
  • Health Equity

Background:

  • The Collaborative Family Healthcare Association (CFHA) is an organization committed to patient- and family-centered care.
  • CFHA strongly advocates for diversity and non-discrimination in all forms.
  • A recent law in North Carolina (March 23, 2016) limits the civil rights of LGBTQ individuals, causing deep concern for CFHA.

Observation:

  • The CFHA Board has decided to proceed with its annual conference in Charlotte, North Carolina.
  • Charlotte has made efforts to enhance legal protections for its LGBTQ citizens.
  • This decision allows CFHA to address critical issues surrounding the new law.

Findings:

  • CFHA will utilize the conference to foster dialogue on the implications of House Bill 2.
