Inferential statistics is basically just a method of making a sort of prediction, generalization or like an estimate of something. So an example of it would be like saying "About 80% of the people living in the US have the last name of Smith, as is deduced by the information given."
Why are measures of variability essential to inferential statistics?
Parametric and non-parametric statistics.Another division is descriptive and inferential statistics.Descriptive and Inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics describes a population (e.g. mean, median, variance, standard deviation, percentages). Inferential infers some information about a population (e.g. hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, ANOVA).
Using an inappropriate model is a classic example in the modelling phase. If you get that wrong, everything that follows is a waste of time.
data organization and analysis
Inferential questions would be those that require you to rationalize and draw conclusions based on information given. After reading a story a teacher may ask the class inferential questions such as: What came next? Why do you think the author chose this ending instead of another?
There is no inferential data. There is inferential statistics which from samples, you infer or draw a conclusion about the population. Hypothesis testing is an example of inferential statistics.
Inference means taking information and making an assumption or guess about it. An inferential question is one that can't be answered by the information within the question itself, but that you must make an educated guess. An example would be a question where you read about a train ride and the passage includes a description of tall buildings outside the windows. An inferential question would be "Was the train traveling through the country or a city?"
Inferential statistics
Select a journal article that involves a statistical study, and write a paper answering the following questions.(a) Is the study descriptive or inferential? Explain your answer. (5 marks

inferential statistics allows us to gain info about a population based on a sample
Not necessarily. Inferential statistics are statistics which are used in making inferences about some distribution. The only requirement is that they are based only on the set of observed values.

Inferential Statistics!
Inferential statistics uses data from a small group to make generalizations or inferences about a larger group of people. Inferential statistics should be used with "inferences".
