null hypothesis
|
hypothesis that shows no statistical difference
|
|
one tailed V. two tailed
|
we use a two tailed test when we do not have any predictions about the test
|
|
beta error
|
error that comes from lowering the alpha levels
|
|
power
|
(1-B)
larger sample size the more power correctly rejecting a false null hypothesis |
|
standard error of the mean
|
used in a z test
|
|
critical z values
|
one tailed: 1.65, 2.33
two tailed: 1.96, 2.58 |
|
standard error of the difference between means
|
used in a dependent t test
|
|
two samplease independent t test
|
two means are independent from each other
|
|
scheffe and tukey tests
|
these are types of POST HOC tests
|
|
ANOVA
|
interested in two different variances
both are estimates of a population variance |
|
F statistic
|
the closer F is to 1, the more likely it is to retain the null hypothesis
|
|
dfw
|
N-K where N is the total sample size
K is the number of groups |
|
dsb
|
K-1
|
|
contigency table
|
a table of observed frequencies categorized along two variables
|
|
4 limitations of a Pearson correlation
|
1. correlations are not proportions
2. only measures linear relationships 3. sensitive to range of scores 4. cannot infer causality |
|
scatter plot
|
plotted frequencies within a graph
|
|
line of best fit
|
line that fits all the points in a linear regression
|
|
r^2
|
coefficient of determination
|
|
k^2
|
coefficient of non determination
shows what is not accounted for |
|
X
|
independent variable
|
|
Y
|
dependent variable
|
|
y hat
|
predicted score
