One of the main challenges of Statistical Education is to provide students with the ability to understand information presented in tables or graphs to conceive the environment that surrounds them draw conclusions and make decisions. In the present research, of a qualitative-exploratory type, the level of understanding of a statistical table by university students from Mexico and Chile, is analyzed and compared with a view to identifying differences. The answers were analyzed under a condensed hierarchy based on Curcio`s reading levels and the Aoyama`s hierarchy. In general, both groups of students reach level 2 (comparative) by making a comparison with the data; however, in this same level there is a greater number of mistakes in the identification of increases/decreases and/or arithmetic calculations done with the data. |
