When testing multiple models at once there is a high chance on finding at least one of them to be significant, but this can be due to a type 1 error. It is important to always adjust the significance level when testing multiple models with, for example, a Bonferroni correction. Also, one should not follow up an exploratory analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset. An exploratory analysis is used to find ideas for a theory, but not to test that theory as well. When a model is found exploratory in a dataset, then following up that analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset could simply mean that the results of the confirmatory analysis are due to the same type 1 error that resulted in the exploratory model in the first place. The confirmatory analysis therefore will not be more informative than the original exploratory analysis.+ − 对探索性数据分析的解释应该非常谨慎。当同时测试多个模型时，发现其中至少一个模型具有统计学意义显著的几率很高，但这可能是由于 Ⅰ 类错误。在测试多个模型时，总是调整显著性水平很重要，例如，使用Bonferroni校正。'''<font color = '#32cd32'>另外，不应该在同一数据集中进行探索性分析后进行验证性分析。one should not follow up an exploratory analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset. </font>'''探索性分析是用来为一个理论寻找想法，但不是用来检验这个理论的。当一个数据集中使用探索性分析发现了一个模型，然后在同一个数据集中进行验证性分析，这可能仅仅意味着验证性分析的结果首先是由于和探索性分析中同样的 Ⅰ 类错误而导致的。因此，验证性分析不会比最初的探索性分析更有用。+ + + − ====Stability of results 结果的稳定性====+ − It is important to obtain some indication about how generalizable the results are.{{sfn|Adèr|2008b|pp=361-371}} While this is often difficult to check, one can look at the stability of the results.

'''数据挖掘 Data mining'''是一种特殊的数据分析技术，侧重于统计建模和探索未来知识前景（而不仅仅是的描述行为目的）。同时，现代智能商业严重依赖于聚合的数据分析，尤其是在商业信息方面。在统计应用中，数据分析可以分为'''描述性统计学descriptive statistics'''、'''探索性数据分析exploratory data analysis (EDA)'''和'''实证性数据分析 confirmatory data analysis (CDA)'''。EDA 侧重于发现数据中的新特征，而 CDA 侧重于确认或证伪现有的假设。'''预测分析Predictive analytics'''的重点是应用统计模型进行预测或分类，而'''文本分析text analytics'''则应用统计学、语言学和结构化技术从文本源中提取和分类信息（文本是一种'''非结构化数据'''）。以上就是各种各样的数据分析。
Data analysis is a process of inspecting, cleansing, transforming and modeling data with the goal of discovering useful information, informing conclusions and supporting decision-making. Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques under a variety of names, and is used in different business, science, and social science domains. In today's business world, data analysis plays a role in making decisions more scientific and helping businesses operate more effectively.
'''数据整合 Data integration'''是数据分析的先驱，数据分析与'''数据可视化data visualization'''同'''数据传播data dissemination'''密切相关。

'''<font color='#ff8000'>数据挖掘</font>'''是一种特殊的数据分析技术，侧重于统计建模和探索未来知识前景（而不仅仅是的描述行为目的）。同时，现代智能商业严重依赖于聚合的数据分析，尤其是在商业信息方面。在统计应用中，数据分析可以分为'''<font color='#ff8000'>描述统计学descriptive statistics</font>'''、'''<font color='#ff8000'>探索性数据分析exploratory data analysis (EDA)</font>'''和'''<font color='#ff8000'>验证性数据分析confirmatory data analysis (CDA)</font>'''。EDA 侧重于发现数据中的新特征，而 CDA 侧重于确认或证伪现有的假设。'''<font color='#ff8000'>预测分析Predictive analytics</font>'''的重点是应用统计模型进行预测或分类，而'''<font color='#ff8000'>文本分析text analytics</font>'''则应用统计学、语言学和结构化技术从文本源中提取和分类信息（文本是一种'''<font color='#ff8000'>非结构化数据</font>'''）。以上就是各种各样的数据分析。
数据科学处理流程图，来自《'''数据科学实战 Doing Data Science'''》 ，Schutt & o’ neil (2013)
分析是指将一个整体分解成独立的部分来进行个别检查。数据分析是获取原始数据并将其转化为用户决策有用信息的过程。通过收集和分析数据来回答问题、检验假设或推翻理论。
Data integration is a precursor to data analysis, and data analysis is closely linked to data visualization and data dissemination.
统计学家 John Tukey 在1961年将数据分析定义为“分析数据并解释这些过程所产生结果的技术，同时规划数据收集以使数据分析过程更容易、更精确或更准确的方法，以及所有适用于数据分析的（数学）统计的机制和结果。”<ref>[http://projecteuclid.org/download/pdf_1/euclid.aoms/1177704711 John Tukey-The Future of Data Analysis-July 1961]</ref>
数据分析可以分为以下几个步骤，如下所述。这些阶段是'''迭代的iterative'''，因为后期阶段的反馈可能会导致重复额外的与前期阶段相同的工作。用于数据挖掘的 CRISP 框架有类似的步骤。
===数据要求===
有用以分析的输入数据是必须的，因为分析是基于数据来指导分析的人或客户的需求（这些人将使用分析的最终产品）而规定的。收集数据的一般实体类型称为'''实验单元experimental unit''' (例如，一个人或一群人)。关于'''总体 population'''的具体变量（例如，年龄和收入）可以被指定和获得。数据可以是数值变量的或分类变量的(也就是数字的文本标签)。<ref name="Schutt & O'Neil"/>
===数据收集===
数据可以通过各种来源收集。需求可以由分析人员传达给数据保管人，例如组织内的信息技术人员。这些数据可以从环境中的传感器，如交通摄像机、卫星、记录设备等接收，也可以通过访谈、从网上资源下载或阅读文档而获得。<ref name="Schutt & O'Neil"/>
===数据处理===
| 最后贾德，查尔斯和
[[File:Relationship of data, information and intelligence.png|thumb|350px|The phases of the [[intelligence cycle]] used to convert raw information into actionable intelligence or knowledge are conceptually similar to the phases in data analysis.]]
[通过'''知识循环intelligence cycle'''将原始信息转化为可操作智慧或知识，这在概念上类似于数据分析中的阶段]
一开始获得的数据必须经过处理整合以便进行分析。以电子表格或统计软件为例，这可能涉及到将数据以表格格式放置到行和列中（即'''结构化数据 structured data'''）以便后续分析。<ref name="Schutt & O'Neil"/>
===数据筛选===
| 1989年
Once processed and organised, the data may be incomplete, contain duplicates, or contain errors. The need for data cleaning will arise from problems in the way that data are entered and stored. Data cleaning is the process of preventing and correcting these errors. Common tasks include record matching, identifying inaccuracy of data, overall quality of existing data, deduplication, and column segmentation.<ref>{{cite web|title=Data Cleaning|url=http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/datacleaning/|publisher=Microsoft Research|accessdate=26 October 2013}}</ref> Such data problems can also be identified through a variety of analytical techniques. For example, with financial information, the totals for particular variables may be compared against separately published numbers believed to be reliable.<ref name="Koomey1">[http://www.perceptualedge.com/articles/b-eye/quantitative_data.pdf Perceptual Edge-Jonathan Koomey-Best practices for understanding quantitative data-February 14, 2006]</ref> Unusual amounts above or below pre-determined thresholds may also be reviewed. There are several types of data cleaning that depend on the type of data such as phone numbers, email addresses, employers etc. Quantitative data methods for outlier detection can be used to get rid of likely incorrectly entered data. Textual data spell checkers can be used to lessen the amount of mistyped words, but it is harder to tell if the words themselves are correct.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Hellerstein|first=Joseph|title=Quantitative Data Cleaning for Large Databases|journal=EECS Computer Science Division|date=27 February 2008|page=3|url=http://db.cs.berkeley.edu/jmh/papers/cleaning-unece.pdf|accessdate=26 October 2013}}</ref>

一旦经过处理和组织，就会发现数据可能不完整、重复或含有错误。
--[[用户:嘉树|嘉树]]（[[用户讨论:嘉树|讨论]]） 根据语义增加“就会发现”如何如何
由于输入和存储数据的方式的问题，因此我们需要进行数据清理。数据筛选是预防和纠正这些错误的过程。常见的任务包括匹配记录、识别不准确的数据、<font color = '#32cd32'>监控</font>现有数据的整体质量、处理数据重复和分割列等。这样的数据问题也可以通过很多种分析技术来识别。例如，利用财务信息，可以将特定变量的与被所有数据认为可靠的单独公布的数字进行比较。高于或低于预先确定的阈值的异常数额可能会被核查。有几种类型的数据清理依赖于数据的类型，如电话号码，电子邮件地址，雇主等。<font color = '#ff8000'>异常值检查outlier detection</font>的定量方法可以用来去除可能的输入错误的数据。<font color = '#ff8000'>文本数据拼写检查器Textual data spell checkers</font>可以用来减少拼写错误单词的数量，但是很难判断这些单词本身是否正确。
===探索性数据分析===
数据被筛选之后就可以进行分析。分析者可能会运用各种被称为探索性数据分析的技术着手理解数据中包含的信息。<ref>[http://www.perceptualedge.com/articles/ie/the_right_graph.pdf Stephen Few-Perceptual Edge-Selecting the Right Graph For Your Message-September 2004]</ref><ref>[http://cll.stanford.edu/~willb/course/behrens97pm.pdf Behrens-Principles and Procedures of Exploratory Data Analysis-American Psychological Association-1997]</ref> 发现的过程可能导致额外的数据清洗或数据请求，因此这些活动可能具有迭代性质。在描述统计学量，例如平均值或中位数时，就可以用来帮助理解数据。数据可视化还可以被用于检查图形格式的数据，以获得关于数据中的信息的额外的洞察力。<ref name="Schutt & O'Neil"/>
===建模和算法===
数学公式或被称为算法的模型可用于在数据中识别变量之间的关系，如相关性或因果关系。一般来说，模型可以根据以下规则建立：根据数据中的其他变量来评估数据中的某一特定变量，并用基于模型的准确性设置残差（即数据 = 模型 + 误差）。<ref name="Judd and McClelland 1989"/>
[[Inferential statistics]] includes techniques to measure relationships between particular variables. For example, [[regression analysis]] may be used to model whether a change in advertising (independent variable ''X'') explains the variation in sales (dependent variable ''Y''). In mathematical terms, ''Y'' (sales) is a function of ''X'' (advertising). It may be described as ''Y'' = ''aX'' + ''b'' + error, where the model is designed such that ''a'' and ''b'' minimize the error when the model predicts ''Y'' for a given range of values of ''X''. Analysts may attempt to build models that are descriptive of the data to simplify analysis and communicate results.<ref name="Judd and McClelland 1989"/>

'''统计推断 Inferential statistics'''包括测量特定变量之间关系的技术。例如，回归分析可以用来建立广告的变化的模型，可以知道广告的变化（独立变量 <math>x </math>）是否可以解释销售的变化（因变量 <math>y</math>）。用数学术语来说，y（销售）是 x （广告）的函数。它可以被描述为 Y = aX + b + error，其中模型的设计使得 a 和 b 在模型某预测给定范围 x 的 y 时具有最小的误差。分析人员可能会尝试建立描述数据的模型，以简化分析和表示结果。
===Data product 数据产品===
A data product is a computer application that takes data inputs and generates outputs, feeding them back into the environment. It may be based on a model or algorithm. An example is an application that analyzes data about customer purchasing history and recommends other purchases the customer might enjoy.<ref name="Schutt & O'Neil"/>

Once the data are analyzed, it may be reported in many formats to the users of the analysis to support their requirements. The users may have feedback, which results in additional analysis. As such, much of the analytical cycle is iterative.<ref name="Schutt & O'Neil"/>

数据被分析后可以用多种格式报告给分析的用户，以支持他们的需求。这些用户可能会有一些反馈，从而需要进行额外的分析。因此，大部分的分析周期是迭代的。
When determining how to communicate the results, the analyst may consider [[data visualization]] techniques to help clearly and efficiently communicate the message to the audience. Data visualization uses [[information displays]] (such as tables and charts) to help communicate key messages contained in the data. Tables are helpful to a user who might look up specific numbers, while charts (e.g., bar charts or line charts) may help explain the quantitative messages contained in the data.

在决定如何传达结果的时候，分析师可能会考虑'''<font color='#ff8000'>数据可视化</font>'''技术来帮助清晰有效地向听众传达信息。数据可视化使用信息显示（如表格和图表）来帮助传递数据中的关键信息。表格对查找特定数字的用户很有帮助，而图表（例如柱状图或折线图）可以帮助解释数据中的定量信息。

作者Jonathan Koomey推荐了一系列理解定量数据的最佳方法。其中包括:
*Check raw data for anomalies prior to performing an analysis;
* 在实施数据分析之前检查原始数据中的异常值；
*Re-perform important calculations, such as verifying columns of data that are formula driven;
* 重新执行重要的计算，例如验证'''<font color = '#ff8000'>公式驱动formula driven</font>'''的数据列；
*Confirm main totals are the sum of subtotals;
* 确认总计是小计的和；
*Check relationships between numbers that should be related in a predictable way, such as ratios over time;
* 检查那些可以通过一些方法预测的数字之间的关系，例如随时间变化的比例；
*Normalize numbers to make comparisons easier, such as analyzing amounts per person or relative to GDP or as an index value relative to a base year;
* 使数字正态化以便于比较，例如分析每个人的数量，或相对于GDP 的数量，或相对于基准年的数量指数；
*Break problems into component parts by analyzing factors that led to the results, such as [[DuPont analysis]] of return on equity.<ref name="Koomey1"/>
* 通过分析导致结果的因素将问题整体分解为几个部分，如'''<font color = '#ff8000'>净资产收益率return on equity</font>'''的'''<font color = '#ff8000'>杜邦分析DuPont analysis</font>'''<ref name="Koomey1"/>。
For the variables under examination, analysts typically obtain [[descriptive statistics]] for them, such as the mean (average), [[median]], and [[standard deviation]]. They may also analyze the [[probability distribution|distribution]] of the key variables to see how the individual values cluster around the mean.

对于被调查的变量，分析师通常会得到它们的描述统计学变量，比如平均数、中位数和标准差。他们还可以分析关键变量的分布情况，来看各个值是如何围绕平均数聚集的。
[[File:US_Employment_Statistics_-_March_2015.png|thumb|250px|right|An illustration of the [[MECE principle]] used for data analysis.]] The consultants at [[McKinsey and Company]] named a technique for breaking a quantitative problem down into its component parts called the [[MECE principle]]. Each layer can be broken down into its components; each of the sub-components must be [[Mutually exclusive events|mutually exclusive]] of each other and [[Collectively exhaustive events|collectively]] add up to the layer above them. The relationship is referred to as "Mutually Exclusive and Collectively Exhaustive" or MECE. For example, profit by definition can be broken down into total revenue and total cost. In turn, total revenue can be analyzed by its components, such as revenue of divisions A, B, and C (which are mutually exclusive of each other) and should add to the total revenue (collectively exhaustive).

一个用于数据分析的'''<font color = '#ff8000'>MECE 原理MECE principle</font>'''的说明。
麦肯锡咨询公司的顾问们提出了一种将定量问题分解为其组成部分的技术，称为 MECE 原理。每一层都可以分解成它的组成部分； 每一个子组成部分必须相互排斥，共同构成它们上一级的层次。这种关系被称为“'''<font color = '#ff8000'>相互排斥且集体穷尽Mutually Exclusive and Collectively Exhaustive</font>'''”或 MECE。例如，根据定义，利润可以分为总收入和总成本。反过来，总收入可以通过其组成部分进行分析，如部门 A、 B 和 C 的收入（它们相互排斥） ，并且它们的总和应该是总收入（总体上穷尽）。
Analysts may use robust statistical measurements to solve certain analytical problems. [[Hypothesis testing]] is used when a particular hypothesis about the true state of affairs is made by the analyst and data is gathered to determine whether that state of affairs is true or false. For example, the hypothesis might be that "Unemployment has no effect on inflation", which relates to an economics concept called the [[Phillips Curve]]. Hypothesis testing involves considering the likelihood of [[Type I and type II errors]], which relate to whether the data supports accepting or rejecting the hypothesis.

分析师可能会使用稳健的统计测量来解决特定的分析问题。当分析师对事件的真实状态做出特定假设，并收集数据以确定事件的真实状态时，就使用'''<font color = '#ff8000'>假设检验Hypothesis testing</font>'''。例如，一个假设可能是“失业对通货膨胀没有影响” ，这个假设与一个叫做'''<font color = '#ff8000'>菲利普斯曲线Phillips Curve</font>'''的经济学概念有关。假设检验包括考虑第一类和第二类错误的可能性，这些错误与数据是否支持接受或拒绝假设有关。
[[Regression analysis]] may be used when the analyst is trying to determine the extent to which independent variable X affects dependent variable Y (e.g., "To what extent do changes in the unemployment rate (X) affect the inflation rate (Y)?"). This is an attempt to model or fit an equation line or curve to the data, such that Y is a function of X.

#Time-series: A single variable is captured over a period of time, such as the unemployment rate over a 10-year period. A [[line chart]] may be used to demonstrate the trend.
当分析师试图确定自变量 X 对因变量 Y 的影响程度时，可以使用'''<font color='#ff8000'>回归分析Regression analysis</font>'''D的方法（例如，“失业率(X)的变化对通货膨胀率(Y)的影响程度如何？”）。这是一种建模或拟合一个方程直线（或曲线）数据的尝试，使得 Y 是 X 的一个函数。
[https://www.erim.eur.nl/centres/necessary-condition-analysis/ Necessary condition analysis] (NCA) may be used when the analyst is trying to determine the extent to which independent variable X allows variable Y (e.g., "To what extent is a certain unemployment rate (X) necessary for a certain inflation rate (Y)?"). Whereas (multiple) regression analysis uses additive logic where each X-variable can produce the outcome and the X's can compensate for each other (they are sufficient but not necessary), necessary condition analysis (NCA) uses necessity logic, where one or more X-variables allow the outcome to exist, but may not produce it (they are necessary but not sufficient). Each single necessary condition must be present and compensation is not possible.

==Barriers to effective analysis 有效分析的障碍==
Barriers to effective analysis may exist among the analysts performing the data analysis or among the audience. Distinguishing fact from opinion, cognitive biases, and innumeracy are all challenges to sound data analysis.

===Confusing fact and opinion 混淆事实和观点===
{{quote box|quote=You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts.|source=[[Daniel Patrick Moynihan]]|width = 250px}}
|-
Effective analysis requires obtaining relevant [[fact]]s to answer questions, support a conclusion or formal [[opinion]], or test [[hypotheses]]. Facts by definition are irrefutable, meaning that any person involved in the analysis should be able to agree upon them. For example, in August 2010, the [[Congressional Budget Office]] (CBO) estimated that extending the [[Bush tax cuts]] of 2001 and 2003 for the 2011–2020 time period would add approximately $3.3 trillion to the national debt.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cbo.gov/publication/21670|title=Congressional Budget Office-The Budget and Economic Outlook-August 2010-Table 1.7 on Page 24 |format=PDF |accessdate=2011-03-31}}</ref> Everyone should be able to agree that indeed this is what CBO reported; they can all examine the report. This makes it a fact. Whether persons agree or disagree with the CBO is their own opinion.

Everyone should be able to agree that indeed this is what CBO reported; they can all examine the report. This makes it a fact. Whether persons agree or disagree with the CBO is their own opinion.
有效的分析需要获得相关的事实来回答问题、支持结论、支持正式的观点，或者检验假设。事实的定义是不可辩驳的，这意味着任何参与分析的人都应该能够同意它们。例如，2010年8月，'''<font color='#ff8000'>美国国会预算办公室Congressional Budget Office(CBO)</font>'''估计，延长布什2001年和2003年的2011-2020年减税政策将使国家债务增加约3.3万亿美元。每个人都应该能够同意这确实是国会预算办公室报告的；他们都可以检查报告。这使该报告的内容成为一个事实。人们可以选择自己观点：是否同意国会预算办公室的报告。

As another example, the auditor of a public company must arrive at a formal opinion on whether financial statements of publicly traded corporations are "fairly stated, in all material respects." This requires extensive analysis of factual data and evidence to support their opinion. When making the leap from facts to opinions, there is always the possibility that the opinion is [[Type I and type II errors|erroneous]].

This requires extensive analysis of factual data and evidence to support their opinion. When making the leap from facts to opinions, there is always the possibility that the opinion is erroneous.
另一个例子是，上市公司的审计师必须就上市公司的财务报表是否“在所有重大方面得到公允陈述”达成正式意见，这需要对事实数据和证据进行广泛的分析，以支持他们的观点。在从事实到观点的飞跃中，总是存在着观点错误的可能性。
===Cognitive biases 认知偏差===
There are a variety of [[cognitive bias]]es that can adversely affect analysis. For example, [[confirmation bias]] is the tendency to search for or interpret information in a way that confirms one's preconceptions. In addition, individuals may discredit information that does not support their views.

各种各样的'''<font color = '#ff8000'>认知偏差cognitive biases</font>'''会对分析产生不利影响。例如，'''<font color = '#ff8000'>证实偏见confirmation bias</font>'''是指人们倾向于以确认自己先入之见的方式来寻找或解释信息。此外，人们都可能会质疑那些与他们观点不相符的信息。
''- Is there a correlation between country of origin and MPG?''
Analysts may be trained specifically to be aware of these biases and how to overcome them. In his book ''Psychology of Intelligence Analysis'', retired CIA analyst [[Richards Heuer]] wrote that analysts should clearly delineate their assumptions and chains of inference and specify the degree and source of the uncertainty involved in the conclusions. He emphasized procedures to help surface and debate alternative points of view.<ref name="Heuer1">{{cite web|url=https://www.cia.gov/library/center-for-the-study-of-intelligence/csi-publications/books-and-monographs/psychology-of-intelligence-analysis/art3.html|title=Introduction|work=cia.gov}}</ref>

为了了解和克服这些偏见，分析师可能会接受专门培训。退休的美国中情局分析师Richards Heuer在他的《'''<font color = '#ff8000'>情报分析心理学Psychology of Intelligence Analysis</font>'''》一书中写道，分析师应该清楚地描述他们的预设和推断链，明确结论中包含的不确定性的程度和来源。他强调有助于提出和辩论不同观点的程序。
===Innumeracy 数学盲===
Effective analysts are generally adept with a variety of numerical techniques. However, audiences may not have such literacy with numbers or [[numeracy]]; they are said to be innumerate. Persons communicating the data may also be attempting to mislead or misinform, deliberately using bad numerical techniques.<ref>[http://www.bloombergview.com/articles/2014-10-28/bad-math-that-passes-for-insight Bloomberg-Barry Ritholz-Bad Math that Passes for Insight-October 28, 2014]</ref>
Effective analysts are generally adept with a variety of numerical techniques. However, audiences may not have such literacy with numbers or numeracy; they are said to be innumerate. Persons communicating the data may also be attempting to mislead or misinform, deliberately using bad numerical techniques.
高效的分析师通常善于使用各种数字的技术。然而，受众可能没有这样的数字和算术读写能力；他们被认为是'''<font color='#ff8000'>数学盲Innumeracy</font>'''。传递数据的人也可能试图'''<font color='#ff8000'>误导mislead</font>'''或'''<font color='#ff8000'>误报misinform</font>'''，故意使用糟糕的数字技术。
For example, whether a number is rising or falling may not be the key factor. More important may be the number relative to another number, such as the size of government revenue or spending relative to the size of the economy (GDP) or the amount of cost relative to revenue in corporate financial statements. This numerical technique is referred to as normalization<ref name="Koomey1"/> or common-sizing. There are many such techniques employed by analysts, whether adjusting for inflation (i.e., comparing real vs. nominal data) or considering population increases, demographics, etc. Analysts apply a variety of techniques to address the various quantitative messages described in the section above.

- Is there a trend of increasing film length over the years?
例如，一个数是上升还是下降可能不是关键因素。更重要的可能是相对于另一个数的数，例如相对于经济规模（国内生产总值）的政府收入或支出，或者公司财务报表中相对于收入的成本金额。这种数的技术称为'''<font color='#ff8000'>归一化normalization</font>'''或'''<font color='#ff8000'>共同比common-sizing</font>'''。分析师们使用了许多这样的技术，无论是对通货膨胀进行调整（如，比较实际数据与名义上的数据） ，还是考虑人口增长、人口统计学信息等。分析人员应用各种技术来处理上面一节中描述的各种定量信息。
Analysts may also analyze data under different assumptions or scenarios. For example, when analysts perform [[financial statement analysis]], they will often recast the financial statements under different assumptions to help arrive at an estimate of future cash flow, which they then discount to present value based on some interest rate, to determine the valuation of the company or its stock. Similarly, the CBO analyzes the effects of various policy options on the government's revenue, outlays and deficits, creating alternative future scenarios for key measures.

分析师也可能在不同的假设或情景下分析数据。例如，当分析师进行财务报表分析时，他们通常会根据不同的假设重新编制财务报表，以得出对未来现金流的估计，然后根据一定的利率贴现到现在的价值，以确定公司或其股票的估价。同样，国会预算办公室分析了各种政策选择对政府收入、支出和赤字的影响，为关键措施创造了可供选择的未来情景。

===Initial data analysis 初始数据分析===
| issue = Elsevier
The most important distinction between the initial data analysis phase and the main analysis phase, is that during initial data analysis one refrains from any analysis that is aimed at answering the original research question. The initial data analysis phase is guided by the following four questions:{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|p=337}}
The most important distinction between the initial data analysis phase and the main analysis phase, is that during initial data analysis one refrains from any analysis that is aimed at answering the original research question. The initial data analysis phase is guided by the following four questions:
在初始数据分析阶段和主要分析阶段之间最重要的区别是，在初始数据分析阶段，人们不进行任何旨在回答原始研究问题的分析。初始数据分析阶段由下列四个问题指导:
====Quality of data 数据质量====
The quality of the data should be checked as early as possible. Data quality can be assessed in several ways, using different types of analysis: frequency counts, descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, median), normality (skewness, kurtosis, frequency histograms), n: variables are compared with coding schemes of variables external to the data set, and possibly corrected if coding schemes are not comparable.

应尽早检查数据的质量。数据质量可以通过几种方式，使用不同类型的分析进行评估: 频数、描述统计学量（平均值、标准差、中位数）、正态性（偏态、峰度、频率直方图）、 n: 变量与数据集外部变量的编码方案进行比较，如果和编码方案不具有可比性，则可能对数据进行修正。
*Test for [[common-method variance]].
* 检验'''<font color='#ff8000'>共同方法变异common-method variance</font>'''
}}
The choice of analyses to assess the data quality during the initial data analysis phase depends on the analyses that will be conducted in the main analysis phase.{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|pp=338-341}}
The choice of analyses to assess the data quality during the initial data analysis phase depends on the analyses that will be conducted in the main analysis phase.
在初始数据分析阶段，评估数据质量的分析方法的选择取决于将在主要分析阶段进行的分析。
====Quality of measurements 测量的质量====
The quality of the [[measuring instrument|measurement instruments]] should only be checked during the initial data analysis phase when this is not the focus or research question of the study. One should check whether structure of measurement instruments corresponds to structure reported in the literature.
The quality of the measurement instruments should only be checked during the initial data analysis phase when this is not the focus or research question of the study. One should check whether structure of measurement instruments corresponds to structure reported in the literature.
当测量仪器的质量不是研究的重点或研究问题的时候，它只能在初始数据分析阶段进行检验。从业者应该检查测量仪器的结构是否符合文献报告的结构。
There are two ways to assess measurement: [NOTE: only one way seems to be listed]
There are two ways to assess measurement: [NOTE: only one way seems to be listed]
有两种方法来评估测量: [注意: 似乎只列出了一种方法]
*Analysis of homogeneity ([[internal consistency]]), which gives an indication of the [[Reliability (statistics)|reliability]] of a measurement instrument. During this analysis, one inspects the variances of the items and the scales, the [[Cronbach's alpha|Cronbach's α]] of the scales, and the change in the Cronbach's alpha when an item would be deleted from a scale{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|pp=341-342}}
* 同质性检验（'''<font color='#ff8000'>内部一致性internal consistency</font>'''）用来表示测量仪器的'''<font color='#ff8000'>可靠性Reliability</font>'''。在这个分析过程中，我们会检查各个项目的变异和量尺刻度，量尺的'''<font color='#ff8000'>克隆巴赫α系数 Cronbach’s alpha </font>''' ，以及当一个项目从量尺上被删除时克隆巴赫α系数的变化。
====Initial transformations初始的转换====
| first = Harris, Jeanne
After assessing the quality of the data and of the measurements, one might decide to impute missing data, or to perform initial transformations of one or more variables, although this can also be done during the main analysis phase.{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|p=344}}<br />
After assessing the quality of the data and of the measurements, one might decide to impute missing data, or to perform initial transformations of one or more variables, although this can also be done during the main analysis phase.<br />
在对数据和测量的质量进行评估之后，从业者可能会决定填补缺失的数据，或者对一个或多个变量进行'''<font color='#ff8000'>初始的转换initial transformations</font>'''，尽管这也可以在主要分析阶段进行。
Possible transformations of variables are:<ref>Tabachnick & Fidell, 2007, p. 87-88.</ref>
Possible transformations of variables are:
变量可能的转换如下:
*Square root transformation (if the distribution differs moderately from normal)
* 平方根转换（如果数据分布与正态分布略有不同）
*Log-transformation (if the distribution differs substantially from normal)
* 对数转换（如果数据分布与正态分布大不相同）
*Inverse transformation (if the distribution differs severely from normal)
* 倒数转换（如果分布与正态分布严重不同）
*Make categorical (ordinal / dichotomous) (if the distribution differs severely from normal, and no transformations help)
* 分类变量处理（顺序或二元变量）（如果分布与正态分布严重不同，且没有转换方法可以补救）
====Did the implementation of the study fulfill the intentions of the research design? 研究的实施是否完成了研究设计的目的？====
One should check the success of the [[randomization]] procedure, for instance by checking whether background and substantive variables are equally distributed within and across groups. <br />
One should check the success of the randomization procedure, for instance by checking whether background and substantive variables are equally distributed within and across groups. <br />
从业者应该检查随机化程序是否成功，例如通过检查'''<font color='#ff8000'>背景变量background variables</font>'''和'''<font color='#ff8000'>实质变量substantive variables</font>'''是否在组内和组间均匀分布。
If the study did not need or use a randomization procedure, one should check the success of the non-random sampling, for instance by checking whether all subgroups of the population of interest are represented in sample.<br />

Other possible data distortions that should be checked are:
Other possible data distortions that should be checked are:
其他应该检查的可能的数据扭曲有:
*[[Dropout (electronics)|dropout]] (this should be identified during the initial data analysis phase)
*Item [[Response rate (survey)|nonresponse]] (whether this is random or not should be assessed during the initial data analysis phase)
*Treatment quality (using [[manipulation check]]s).{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|pp=344-345}}
* '''<font color='#ff8000'>数据遗失Dropout</font>'''（这应该在初始数据分析阶段进行识别）
* 项目'''<font color='#ff8000'>回收率Response rate</font>'''（是否随机，应在初始数据分析阶段进行评估）

====Characteristics of data sample数据样本的特征====
In any report or article, the structure of the sample must be accurately described. It is especially important to exactly determine the structure of the sample (and specifically the size of the subgroups) when subgroup analyses will be performed during the main analysis phase.<br />

* '''<font color='#ff8000'>交叉表Cross-tabulations</font>'''
====Final stage of the initial data analysis 初始数据分析的最后阶段====
During the final stage, the findings of the initial data analysis are documented, and necessary, preferable, and possible corrective actions are taken.<br />
During the final stage, the findings of the initial data analysis are documented, and necessary, preferable, and possible corrective actions are taken.<br />
在最后阶段，从业者需要记录初始数据分析的结果，并采取必要的、可取的和可能的纠正措施。
Also, the original plan for the main data analyses can and should be specified in more detail or rewritten.<br /> In order to do this, several decisions about the main data analyses can and should be made:

此外，主要数据分析的原始计划可以而且应该更详细地说明或重写。 为了做到这一点，可以而且应该对主要数据分析作出以下几个决定:
*In the case of non-[[Normal distribution|normal]]s: should one [[Data transformation (statistics)|transform]] variables; make variables categorical (ordinal/dichotomous); adapt the analysis method?
* 在非正态分布的情况下，是否应该：有数据转换变量；使变量分类化（序列化/二分类）；改进分析方法？
*In the case of [[missing data]]: should one neglect or impute the missing data; which imputation technique should be used?
* 在有缺失数据的情况下：是否应该忽视或插补缺失数据？应该使用哪种插补方法？
*In the case of [[outlier]]s: should one use robust analysis techniques?
* 在有异常值的情况下：是否应该使用稳健的分析技术？
*In case items do not fit the scale: should one adapt the measurement instrument by omitting items, or rather ensure comparability with other (uses of the) measurement instrument(s)?
*在项目和测量量尺不匹配的情况下：是否应省略项目以对测量仪器进行调整，还是应确保与其他（用途的）测量仪器具有可比性？
*In the case of (too) small subgroups: should one drop the hypothesis about inter-group differences, or use small sample techniques, like exact tests or [[bootstrapping (statistics)|bootstrapping]]?
* 在具有（太）小的子群的情况下：是否应该放弃群体间差异的假设，或者使用小样本技术，比如'''<font color='#ff8000'>精确检验exact tests</font>'''或者bootstrapping？
*In case the [[randomization]] procedure seems to be defective: can and should one calculate [[Propensity score matching|propensity scores]] and include them as covariates in the main analyses?{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|pp=345-346}}
* 在随机化程序似乎有缺陷的情况下：能够而且应该计算'''<font color='#ff8000'>倾向分数propensity scores</font>'''并将其作为协变量包括在主要分析中吗？
====Analysis 分析====
Several analyses can be used during the initial data analysis phase:{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|pp=346-347}}
Several analyses can be used during the initial data analysis phase:
在初始数据分析阶段可以使用以下几种分析:
*Univariate statistics (single variable)
* 单变量统计学（单变量）
*Bivariate associations (correlations)
* 双变量关联（相关）
*Graphical techniques (scatter plots)
* 图表技术（散点图）
It is important to take the measurement levels of the variables into account for the analyses, as special statistical techniques are available for each level:{{sfn|Adèr|2008a|pp=349-353}}
It is important to take the measurement levels of the variables into account for the analyses, as special statistical techniques are available for each level:
在进行分析时必须考虑到变量的测量水平，因为每个水平都有专门的统计技术:
*Log-transformation (if the distribution differs substantially from normal)
*Nominal and ordinal variables
* 对数转换（如果数据分布与正态分布大不相同）
* 称名和顺序变量
*Inverse transformation (if the distribution differs severely from normal)
**Frequency counts (numbers and percentages)

====Nonlinear analysis非线性分析====
Nonlinear analysis is often necessary when the data is recorded from a [[nonlinear system]]. Nonlinear systems can exhibit complex dynamic effects including [[bifurcation theory|bifurcations]], [[chaos theory|chaos]], [[harmonics]] and [[subharmonics]] that cannot be analyzed using simple linear methods. Nonlinear data analysis is closely related to [[nonlinear system identification]].<ref name="SAB1">Billings S.A. "Nonlinear System Identification: NARMAX Methods in the Time, Frequency, and Spatio-Temporal Domains". Wiley, 2013</ref>

Nonlinear systems can exhibit complex dynamic effects including bifurcations, chaos, harmonics and subharmonics that cannot be analyzed using simple linear methods. Nonlinear data analysis is closely related to nonlinear system identification.
'''<font color='#ff8000'>非线性分析Nonlinear analysis</font>'''通常在数据是从非线性系统中获取的时候是必要的。非线性系统可以表现出复杂的动力学效应，包括'''<font color='#ff8000'>分岔bifurcations</font>'''、'''<font color='#ff8000'>混沌chaos</font>'''、'''<font color='#ff8000'>谐波harmonics</font>'''和'''<font color='#ff8000'>次谐波subharmonics</font>'''，这些效应不能用简单的线性方法进行分析。非线性数据分析与非线性系统辨识密切相关。

===Main data analysis 主要数据分析===
In the main analysis phase analyses aimed at answering the research question are performed as well as any other relevant analysis needed to write the first draft of the research report.{{sfn|Adèr|2008b|p=363}}
In the main analysis phase analyses aimed at answering the research question are performed as well as any other relevant analysis needed to write the first draft of the research report.
主要分析阶段进行旨在回答研究问题的分析，以及撰写研究报告初稿所需的其他相关分析。
====Exploratory and confirmatory approaches探索性和验证性方法====
In the main analysis phase either an exploratory or confirmatory approach can be adopted. Usually the approach is decided before data is collected. In an exploratory analysis no clear hypothesis is stated before analysing the data, and the data is searched for models that describe the data well. In a confirmatory analysis clear hypotheses about the data are tested.

In an exploratory analysis no clear hypothesis is stated before analysing the data, and the data is searched for models that describe the data well. In a confirmatory analysis clear hypotheses about the data are tested.
在主要的分析阶段，可以采用探索性或验证性的方法。通常方法是在收集数据之前决定的。探索性分析中，分析数据之前没有明确的假设，分析人员搜索能够很好地描述数据的模型。验证性分析对数据进行明确的假设检验。
[[Exploratory data analysis]] should be interpreted carefully. When testing multiple models at once there is a high chance on finding at least one of them to be significant, but this can be due to a [[type 1 error]]. It is important to always adjust the significance level when testing multiple models with, for example, a [[Bonferroni correction]]. Also, one should not follow up an exploratory analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset. An exploratory analysis is used to find ideas for a theory, but not to test that theory as well. When a model is found exploratory in a dataset, then following up that analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset could simply mean that the results of the confirmatory analysis are due to the same [[type 1 error]] that resulted in the exploratory model in the first place. The confirmatory analysis therefore will not be more informative than the original exploratory analysis.{{sfn|Adèr|2008b|pp=361-362}}

The confirmatory analysis therefore will not be more informative than the original exploratory analysis.
====Final stage of the initial data analysis 初始数据分析的最后阶段====
对探索性数据分析的解释应该非常谨慎。当同时测试多个模型时，发现其中至少一个模型具有统计学意义显著的几率很高，但这可能是由于 Ⅰ 类错误。在测试多个模型时，总是调整显著性水平很重要，例如，使用Bonferroni校正。'''<font color = '#32cd32'>另外，不应该在同一数据集中进行探索性分析后进行验证性分析。one should not follow up an exploratory analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset. </font>'''探索性分析是用来为一个理论寻找想法，但不是用来检验这个理论的。当一个数据集中使用探索性分析发现了一个模型，然后在同一个数据集中进行验证性分析，这可能仅仅意味着验证性分析的结果首先是由于和探索性分析中同样的 Ⅰ 类错误而导致的。因此，验证性分析不会比最初的探索性分析更有用。
====Stability of results 结果的稳定性====
It is important to obtain some indication about how generalizable the results are.{{sfn|Adèr|2008b|pp=361-371}} While this is often difficult to check, one can look at the stability of the results. Are the results reliable and reproducible? There are two main ways of doing that.
It is important to obtain some indication about how generalizable the results are. While this is often difficult to check, one can look at the stability of the results. Are the results reliable and reproducible? There are two main ways of doing that.
得到一些说明这些结果有多么普遍的指标是重要的。虽然普遍性通常很难检验，但可以表示结果的稳定性的一些信息。有两种主要的方法来保证结果的可靠和可重复性。
*In the case of non-[[Normal distribution|normal]]s: should one [[Data transformation (statistics)|transform]] variables; make variables categorical (ordinal/dichotomous); adapt the analysis method?
* ''[[Cross-validation (statistics)|Cross-validation]]''. By splitting the data into multiple parts, we can check if an analysis (like a fitted model) based on one part of the data generalizes to another part of the data as well. Cross-validation is generally inappropriate, though, if there are correlations within the data, e.g. with [[panel data]]. Hence other methods of validation sometimes need to be used. For more on this topic, see [[statistical model validation]].
* 在非正态分布的情况下，是否应该：有数据转换变量；使变量分类化（序列化/二分类）；改进分析方法？
* '''<font color = '#ff8000'>交叉验证Cross-validation</font>'''。通过将数据分成多个部分，我们可以检查基于一部分数据的分析（如拟合模型）是否也可以推广到另一部分数据。不过如果数据内部（例如与'''<font color = '#ff8000'>面板数据panel data</font>'''）存在相关性，那么交叉验证通常是不适当的。因此，有时需要使用其他验证方法。有关此主题的更多信息，请参阅'''<font color = '#ff8000'>统计模型验证statistical model validation</font>'''。
*In the case of [[missing data]]: should one neglect or impute the missing data; which imputation technique should be used?
* ''[[Sensitivity analysis]]''. A procedure to study the behavior of a system or model when global parameters are (systematically) varied. One way to do that is via [[Bootstrapping (statistics)|bootstrapping]].
* 在有缺失数据的情况下：是否应该忽视或插补缺失数据？应该使用哪种插补方法？
* '''<font color = '#ff8000'>敏感度分析Sensitivity analysis</font>'''。一种在全局变量（系统地）变化时研究系统或模型的行为的程序。一种方法是通过 Bootstrapping 方法。

[[Exploratory data analysis]] should be interpreted carefully. When testing multiple models at once there is a high chance on finding at least one of them to be significant, but this can be due to a [[type 1 error]]. It is important to always adjust the significance level when testing multiple models with, for example, a [[Bonferroni correction]]. Also, one should not follow up an exploratory analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset. An exploratory analysis is used to find ideas for a theory, but not to test that theory as well. When a model is found exploratory in a dataset, then following up that analysis with a confirmatory analysis in the same dataset could simply mean that the results of the confirmatory analysis are due to the same [[type 1 error]] that resulted in the exploratory model in the first place. The confirmatory analysis therefore will not be more informative than the original exploratory analysis.{{sfn|Adèr|2008b|pp=361-362}}

* ''[[Cross-validation (statistics)|Cross-validation]]''. By splitting the data into multiple parts, we can check if an analysis (like a fitted model) based on one part of the data generalizes to another part of the data as well. Cross-validation is generally inappropriate, though, if there are correlations within the data, e.g. with [[panel data]]. Hence other methods of validation sometimes need to be used. For more on this topic, see [[statistical model validation]].
