And (3) 90% of the grades are on the 4.0 system and 10% are pass-fail. A survey is taken to determine whether there is a relationship between undergraduate major and grading system preference.

Each student is asked which of the three grading systems he or she prefers. The results are shown in the following 3 x 3 contingency table:

Types of Bias

Statistics is the study of data collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation. Statistical bias is a characteristic of a statistical technique or its findings in which the expected value deviates from the actual root quantitative parameter being estimated. According to the actual definition of bias, it refers to the tendency of a statistic to overestimate or underestimate a parameter.
