12:02 Demerits of Median

17:05 Concluding Remarks

Learning Outcomes:-

Through this module, you will gain understanding on:-

1.    Merits of Median

2.    Demerits of Median

Merits of Median -

 

1.    Widely used measure, particularly in the field of socio-economic studies, Series related to qualitative observations such as IQ, Health of  Students etc. 

2.    Very simple measure of Central tendency; In case of simple individual series, just a glance at the data is enough to locate the median value

ascending order -

13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23

3.    As opposed to Arithmetic Mean, MEDIAN Value is NOT distorted by presence of extreme values in series

DEMERIT of Arithmetic Mean -

NOT always a representative value - gets distorted by presence of extreme

values in the Series

4.    Median value is always a certain specific value in the series

5.    Better representative value of series compared to Average (i.e. Mean)

6.    Is a Real Value, Median EXISTS in the Series

7.    Can also be estimated through Graphic presentation of data

8.    Can be estimated even in case of incomplete series; It is enough to know number of items and Middle item(s) of the series

“Nine” Number of Items in an Incomplete Series:-

10, 15, (?), 42, 55 Median, 63, (?), 89, 98

 

 

Demerits of Median -

 

1.    When different values of series are widely apart from each other, median fails to be a representative measure

2.    It is NOT based on all items in the series

3.    When Median is located somewhere between two middle values, it remains only an approximate measure, not a precise value

Even number of Items -

13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23. 25

4.    NOT Capable of further algebraic treatment
