COMPLETE Intro Psychology Course - ALL TOPICS - Measures of Central Tendency (Intro Psych Tutorial #15)

Here's a better-quality, more detailed update for this video: https://youtu.be/n_sSVhHBdj4 In this video I cover descriptive statistics and three measures of central tendency; the mean, median, and mode. The calculation of each is explained, as well as potential problems, such as the mean's sensitivity to extreme scores, especially in small samples. I also discuss the possibility of multimodal and uniform distributions. Don’t forget to subscribe to the channel to see future videos!

If 90 and 84 were both the most-frequent scores then they would both be modes. If 90 and 84 were the only scores and they occurred equally then this would be a uniform distribution. Sorry for any confusion!
