TKompetensDefinitionPrognos för efterfrågan 2026–2030
K Interpreting correlation
Correlation
Explains what strength and direction of an association mean and why association does not prove causation. rising
K Explaining confidence intervals
Confidence interval
Explains which uncertainty an interval around an estimate expresses and what its width says about the sample. rising
K Understanding significance and p values
p value · Statistical significance
Explains what a p value does and does not say and why significant is not the same as important. rising
K Assessing effect size
Effect size
Assesses how large a found difference is in practice using measures such as Cohens d and explained variance. rising
K Interpreting measures of spread
Standard deviation · Variance
Reads standard deviation, variance and range and states what the spread says about the group. stable
K Choosing mean or median
Central tendency
Chooses between mean, median and mode based on distribution and outliers and justifies that choice. stable
K Distinguishing levels of measurement
Levels of measurement
Distinguishes nominal, ordinal and interval data and chooses matching operations and charts accordingly. stable
K Recognising distributions
Distributions
Recognises normal, skewed and bimodal distributions in a histogram and states consequences for the analysis choice. stable
K Distinguishing sample and population
Sampling
Explains how a sample is drawn and when outcomes do or do not generalise to the population. stable
K Separating causation from association
Causal inference
Names confounders, selection effects and reverse causation as explanations alongside an observed relationship. rising
K Reading percentages and index figures
Percentages
Works with percentage change, percentage points and index figures and avoids common calculation and interpretation errors. stable
