About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the population of Illinois by gender, including both male and female populations. This dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of Illinois across both sexes and to determine which sex constitutes the majority.

Key observations

There is a slight majority of female population, with 50.6% of total population being female. Source: U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates.

Content

When available, the data consists of estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates.

Scope of gender :

Please note that American Community Survey asks a question about the respondents current sex, but not about gender, sexual orientation, or sex at birth. The question is intended to capture data for biological sex, not gender. Respondents are supposed to respond with the answer as either of Male or Female. Our research and this dataset mirrors the data reported as Male and Female for gender distribution analysis. No further analysis is done on the data reported from the Census Bureau.

Variables / Data Columns

• Gender: This column displays the Gender (Male / Female)
• Population: The population of the gender in the Illinois is shown in this column.
• % of Total Population: This column displays the percentage distribution of each gender as a proportion of Illinois total population. Please note that the sum of all percentages may not equal one due to rounding of values.

One of the newest types of multimedia involves body-connected interfaces, usually termed haptics. Haptics may use stylus-based tactile interfaces, glove-based systems, handheld controllers, balance boards, or other custom-designed body-computer interfaces. How well do these interfaces help students learn Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)? We conducted an updated review of learning STEM with haptics, applying meta-analytic techniques to 21 published articles reporting on 53 effects for factual, inferential, procedural, and transfer STEM learning. This deposit includes the data extracted from those articles and comprises the raw data used in the meta-analytic analyses.

About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the population of Illinois by gender across 18 age groups. It lists the male and female population in each age group along with the gender ratio for Illinois. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population distribution of Illinois by gender and age. For example, using this dataset, we can identify the largest age group for both Men and Women in Illinois. Additionally, it can be used to see how the gender ratio changes from birth to senior most age group and male to female ratio across each age group for Illinois.
