SOCR Educational Materials - SOCR Data
The links below contain a number of datasets that may be used for demonstration purposes in probability and statistics education. There are two types of data - simulated (computer-generated using random sampling) and observed (research, observationally or experimentally acquired).
Simulated data
The SOCR resources provide a number of mechanisms to simulate data using computer random-number generators. Here are some of the most commonly used SOCR generators of simulated data:
- SOCR Experiments - each experiment reports random outcomes, sample and population distributions and summary statistics.
- SOCR random-number generator - enables sampling of any size from any of the SOCR Distributions.
- SOCR Analyses - all of the SOCR analyses allow random sampling from various populations appropriate for the user-specified analysis.
Observed data
The following collections include a number of real observed datasets from different disciplines, acquired using different techniques and applicable in different situations.
- Climate Change Data
- 25,000 Records of Human Heights (in) and Weights (lbs)
- Consumer Price Index (CPI)
- California Earthquakes Data (1969-2007)
- 2007 Advanced Placement (AP) Exam Scores by Discipline
- Online Math Center: A large archive of data from different scientific observations
- Largemouth Bass Mercury Contamination Dataset
- Allometric relationship between population density, body mass and metabolic activity in Plants
- Neuroimaging Data
- NISER Datasets
- Texas Wolfcamp aquifer data
- Hot Dog Calorie and Sodium Dataset
- Body Density & Body Mass Index (BMI) Data
