Final Exam Mathematics and Statistics for Social Sciences Author: Vanda Salari LL.B 2019/2020 year student Student Number: B019080 Introduction The definition of success in the world of sports can be interpreted in a number of ways. Success in basketball can be defined using the value of the player. The National Basketball Association (NBA) uses different factors to determine its most successful player. It is important to look into characteristics which could be attributed to a player’s success. From College to the NBA, Evans examines the characteristics the NBA considers to determine a player’s success. The study gathered data from 2006 to 2013 draftees. Evans looked into how the duration of the player’s career prior to being drafted, as well as their qualification. The variables included statistics from the players’ games. Other variables which were considered were their age, height, and BMI. The result of the research showed that height and in game statistics were correlated to success. Meanwhile, number of fouls, age, and late start were correlated to higher draft positions written by NBAstuffer themself to help their fans and was last updated on june 14, 2019 Moxley and Towne also focus on the early career success of NBA players. They studied multiple factors and found the top variable to be the players’ performance history. In addition, height, arm span, vertical leap, and agility are also taken into consideration. The results of the study showed that although physical attributes are taken into account, they are not distinguishing factors to the player’s success. The factors which were found to be useful were age, win shares, and college quality. Measuring Greatness in the NBA looks into the question of how greatness and success is measured in the NBA. Whitmoyer believes that a single factor is insufficient when determining the success of the player, noting that other factors should also be taken into account. The player’s compensation is often used as a reflection of their value, however, it is not always reliable. The perception of the player is also key to a player’s value. The articles took into account qualitative and quantitative factors to justify their thesis. All three journals look into qualitative and quantitative profiles to find what determines success. They found physical attributes to not be as important of a factor as the performance and other ratings. Age was also found to be rather important, as well as the history of the player. How long they have been playing professionally is also a big determining factor. Evans takes into account more in game statistical data as compared to the other two, especially Whitmoyer. Whitmoyer looks into the measurement of success more than the actual statistics. Physical attributes aren’t much mentioned in the 3rd journal, but are taken into account in Evans and Moxley’s findings. The articles have used more specific and thorough data to explore the topic. There are a number of factors which need to be considered to find what indicates success. Different studies have been conducted to find which factors are most correlated to NBA Career success. Although the data acquired has been useful in finding possible factors to success, it is important to gather more information to narrow down the information.
Research Questions What is the minimum wage for an NBA player? How many NBA players out of 202 have an average yearly rating? During which are the most successful and earn most? Methodology A. Study of NBA players and their values The Data used for the research is taken for the NBA PlayOffs between the year of 2018- 2019 from the official NBA official webpage; https://www.nbastuffer.com/2018-2019-nba- player-stats/. The data summarized the NBA players yearly value and wage according to their performance throughout the year which affect their yearly ratings data Analysis. Due to each NBA player not having the same exact characteristics the variables were researched separately such as each NBA player's net worth and income depending on their yearly ratings which is calculated at the end of each playoffs. B. Data Analysis The results are achieved and will be analyzed in the Microsoft Excel system. It can be used to test outcomes, to verify hypotheses, degrees of trust and association. Three theories will be tested out. Hypothesi: 1 Ho: p=>0.77 Ha: p≠ 0.77 It is a one-sided theory test of 0.06 alpha and 90 per cent of the Confidence level. Before the hypothesis is tested, the data must be modeled and the modeling parameters and assumptions followed. Independence: The values of this database are independent from each NBA player. Sample Size: The Sample is large enough due to 157/202 students being only american nationals. https://www.nbastuffer.com/2018-2019-nba-player-stats/ https://www.nbastuffer.com/2018-2019-nba-player-stats/ User Sticky Note Incorrect null hypothesis. User Sticky Note How can alpha be 0.06 when your confidence level is 90%? User Sticky Note These hypotheses don`t match the table below in the results section. Randomization: There is an application of randomization to the applicant of the database. 10% Condition: The data includes more than half of the population of the American players therefore this satisfies the 10% condition. The conditions are satisfied, so I will use the Usual Template to consider a z-interval in one proportion. Hypothesis: 2 H0: μ = 45 HA: μ > 45 Hypothesis 2 is a one-sided hypothesis with an alpha of 0.06 and a confidence interval of 95 per cent, with data on average NBA players ranked between 75-77 percent on an annual basis. To run an independence, randomization and 10 per cent t-test.To carry out a t-test of equality, randomization and 10 percent criteria must be met, and all of these conditions and assumptions have been met, as stated in the Hypothesis 1 test. Hence we can carry on the work. Hypothesis: 3 H0: μ = 0.6 Ha: μ = 0.6 As mentioned before, all the assumptions and parameters for this data set are satisfied, and a two-sided hypothesis test for the null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis was carried out as follows: this data was analyzed with a confidence interval of 95% and an alpha of 0.06 Results Hypothesis 1 Sample proportion 0.777227723 Z-stat 0.31240578 User Sticky Note How can alpha be 0.06 when your confidence level is 95%?
