| Resumo: | In this paper we perform a semiotic analysis of the primary mathematical objects implicit in the work with different types of statistical tables, using elements of the ontosemiotic approach. This analysis is used to extend the levels of semiotic complexity defined by Arteaga for statistical graphs to statistical tables. The distribution of these types of tables in a sample of twelve Chilean school books, directed from 5th to 8th grade (10 to 13 years) is also presented through a content analysis. The tabular representation with greater presence in these textbooks is the distribution table, which corresponds to level 3 of semiotic complexity, subdivided into three levels, and within them the most frequent is the first, since the last sublevel only appears in 8th grade. The contingency table, associated with the maximum level of complexity, appears scarcely and paradoxically its use decreases with the school year. |
