Statistics today represent a group of scientific methods for the quantitative and qualitative investigation of variations in mass appearances. In fact, statistics present a group of methods that are used for the accumulation, analysis, presentation and interpretation of data necessary for reaching certain conclusions. Statistical analysis is divided into descriptive statistical analysis and inferential statistics. The values which represent the results of an experiment, and which are the subject of observation of a certain occurrence, are called parameters and they are divided into descriptive and numerical. All numerical parameters are divided into non-continuous and continuous. The graphic presentation of the distribution of frequencies can be by poligon or histogram. The most frequently applied descriptive statistical methods are: arithmetic mean, standard deviation, standard error of arithmetic mean, variation coefficient, and variation interval.

The activity of the caudal photoreceptor of crayfish was studied in: (1) intact tail ganglion, (2) partially isolated, and (3) totally isolated ganglion preparations. Statistical analysis of the photoreceptor activity included average frequency, average interval, variance, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, interval histograms, auto-expectation density, and cross-expectation density. Results showed that the average influence of the mechanoreceptor synapses on the photoreceptors during a period of several seconds was inhibitory, strong on the contralateral and weak on the ipsilateral side.

Cartoons present a unique attraction for children, and the action genre is one of the television programs that primarily broadcast. Children observe characters in action cartoons and repeat what they see or hear. This study aims to determine whether the effect of aggressive behavior in children when watching action cartoons. The research approach is quantitative. The subject was 12 children aged 5-6 years in the Doa Ibu Kindergarten, Makasar. The researcher used data collection techniques in descriptive statistical analysis and Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis. The results showed a positive relationship between watching action cartoons and aggressive behavior of children aged 5-6 years and included in the category of moderately influential. To reduce these effects, interventions that must be carried out need to be studied further.

Christian ecotheology uses theology to examine the consequences of human action on ecology. It comes from the notion that the natural world is the creation and the good of God. The study of the Sacred Texts and the analysis of their references to the environment provides information on the relation of human beings to the environment and reveals the approach of each author. In this study, a detailed descriptive statistical analysis of the environmental references of the four Gospels of the New Testament was carried out. The different aspects of the environment (natural, anthropogenic, and spiritual) were explored and a quantitative analysis of the environmental references was performed for the texts of the four Gospels using descriptive statistics measures. The results show that the anthropogenic environment is the most commonly cited, with the spiritual environment coming next and the natural environment in the third position.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to describe the causes of death in Thoroughbred horses at the Racetrack “La Rinconada”, in Caracas (Venezuela) during 2008-2012. This study was conducted in a cohort of all Thoroughbred horses that died or were subjected to euthanasia. Data was collected retrospectively. Only horses for which a full necropsy report was available were included in the study. The carcass and all internal organs of each horse were examined and representative samples of tissues with abnormalities were collected in 10% neutral buffered formalin and processed for histopathological examination. Samples were collected for bacteriological or virological examination when indicated in gross examination. A descriptive statistical analysis was performed. A total of 532 Thoroughbred horses were examined post-mortem. Of these horses, 44% were females and 56% males. In general musculoskeletal injuries and dilaceration occurred specifically at higher frequency. The total year and horses dead for descriptive statistical analysis was to mean 106.4 and median 125; Standard Deviation: 47.82573; variation (Standard Deviation): 2287.3, population (Standard Deviation): 42.77663 and variance (Standard Deviation): 18229.84. In conclusion we identify and describe the causes of death in Thoroughbred Race Horses in Caracas, Venezuela. In order of importance the causes of death were principally skeletal muscle injuries resulting in fractures euthanasia, abdominal crisis were mostly bowel twists and gastric rupture andrespiratory pathologies such as the pneumonia, pleuritis presented a significant number of cases of pulmonary hemorrhage induced by exercise. Finally the multisystem pathologies were presented in low cases.

Method: Exploratory, descriptive study with a quantitative approach. The data were extracted from the Brazilian Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery (SBCBM). Descriptive statistical analysis was implemented. The results were presented using explanatory tables and graphs. Results: The universa of 493.212 CB performed was identified, with a mean and standard deviation of (54,801±11,300.2). The year 2019 registered the highest preponderance with 13.9% (n=68.530) and 2011 registered the lowest preponderance with 7% (n=34.629). 79.9% (n=394.101) CB were financed by Health Plans, 15.3% (n=75.624) by SUS and 4.8% (n=23.487) by private institutions. Final considerations: There was an increase in the frequency of CB records made in the analyzed geographical and historical section. Descriptors: Obesity; Morbid obesity; Bariatric surgery.

The problem of mathematics learning often happens in mathematics teaching that seems far from the real problem. Realistic mathematics learning can help students to understand about mathematics concepts that abstract for them. If the teachers use real context in mathematics learning, students will be more attracted and interested. The purpose of this research is to look at the effect of realistic mathematics learning towards student's mathematical disposition. The method of this research is descriptive quantitative. The subjects were 35 students of SMP N 14 Yogyakarta grade 7 and this research held in one month. The instrument is students' mathematical disposition scale questionnaire. The students fill the questionnaire before and after they are given a treatment. The result of the questionnaire was analyzed using descriptive statistics, by looking at the average before and after treatment and categorized according to the average value. Based on the results of the descriptive statistical analysis showed that an average of students’ mathematical disposition has increased. The average value of students in pre-treatment is 96.02 with the medium category and then after treatment is given to the 109.44 with the high category
