比如研究房价的说明:
譬如我们可以用四分位值(quartile),即按房价高低顺序排列把市场上能够交易的住房按单元等分成四组,房价最高的四分位值,即最贵的25%构成的第一组的末位价格(1st quartile),而第二、三、四三个四分位值则分别是第二、三、四组的末位价格(2nd, 3rd and 4th quartiles),来研究房价的分布和居民收入的分布的关联。

这里也有一个解释:http://www.north-herts.gov.uk/index/about_council/consultati...

Top quartile means that a council is in the top quarter of all english councils, while bottom quartile means that a council is in the bottom quarter in terms of performance. The table also shows the district council average for all district councils in England.

四分位数:人们经常需要将数据划分为四部分,每一部分大约包含1/4或25%的观察值。
Q1=第一四分位数,或第25百分位数
Q2=第二四分位数,或第50百分位数
Q3=第三四分位数,或第75百分位数

agree  Huijun Suo: Agree to your explanation in English, but not to "四分位", which sounds too academic in Chinese, even though this IS what the original means.

quartile,四分差


Explanation:
quartile,四分差,描述统计学术语

方差、標準差一樣,表示統計資料中各變異量數(measures of variation)的分散情形。Q為團體中百分等級25簡稱(Q1)與百分等級75簡稱(Q3)這兩位受試者的變異量數(measures of variation)差距之一半,換言之取中間50%的受試者其全距之一半。因此Q不是一個點,而是一段距離;Q越大表示變異量數(measures of variation)間的全距越大。

[編輯] 公式

設受試者總數為N

Q為四分差

第1/4N個受試者為第一四分位數,簡稱Q1

第2/4N個受試者為第二四分位數,簡稱Q2

第3/4N個受試者為第三四分位數,簡稱Q3

Q=\frac{1}{2}
