It is concerned with the factors that affect rural change, how we define progress, and what can be done to bring about the overriding objective of rural development, which is to reduce, and eventually eliminate, rural poverty.
Below is the document preview.
LESSON 4: MEASURES OF DISPERSION
Trending!
The measures of central tendency are not sufficient measures to reveal the shape of the distribution of data set. The measures that show the spread of a data set are called the measures of dispersion. The main measures of dispersion are range, inter quartile range, standard deviation, variance and coefficient of variation. In this lesson we will discuss these measures of dispersion.

LESSON 6: SKEWNESS AND KURTOSIS
Trending!
Skewness refers to lack of symmetry. A skewed distribution is a frequency distribution that is asymmetric (not symmetric). When the longer tail of a distribution extends to the right, it is said to be skewed to the right and when the longer tail of a distribution extends to the left, it said to be skewed to the left.
