- Decision-making process for evaluating claims about a population based on characteristics of a sample purposedly coming from that population - decision whether the characteristics is acceptable or not |
Hypothesis testing |
|
2 types of hypothesis |
Null hypothesis H0 and alternative hypothesis H1 |
|
- Type of hypothesis - statement that there's no difference between a parameter or a specific value or that there is no difference between two parameters |
Null hypothesis |
|
- type of hypothesis - statement that there is a difference between a parameter or a specific value or that there is a difference between two parameters |
Alternative hypothesis |
|
Null hypothesis symbols |
Two tailed: = Right-tailed: ≤ Left-tailed: ≥ |
|
Alternative hypothesis symbols (rejection region always depends on H1) |
Two-tailed: ≠ Right-tailed: > Left-tailed: < |
|
Non-directional symbols: Directional symbols: |
: = and ≠ : > and ≤ (right-tailed bc greater than ang H1) < and ≥ (left-tailed bc less than ang H1) |
|
A non-directional test is also called _____. A directional test may either be ___ or ___. |
Two-tailed Left-tailed or right-tailed |
|
Increases, greater, efficient, improves, effective |
Right-tailed direction > or ≤ |
|
Less than, decrease, smaller |
Left-tailed < or ≥ |
|
H0 is true - rejected H0 is false - rejected |
:Type 1 error :Correct decision |
|
H0 is true - accept or do not reject H0 is false - accept or do not reject |
:correct decision :Type II error |
|
5 steps in hypothesis testing |
1. Identify claim (μ) and formulate null and alternative hypo (H⁰ and H¹) 2. •level of significance (a - alpha) •one/two-tailed (based on alternative hypo sign) •test statistics (z or t-test) •critical value (base on z or t-test •draw rejection region (base on critical value) 3. Computation of test value z/t = [(X̄ - μ)√n]/σ 4. Decision: accept or reject H⁰ 5. Conclusion: answer the question
|
|
Formula of test statistics (z or t-test) |
z/t = [(X̄ - μ)√n]/σ X̄ - sample mean μ - population mean n - sample size (number of samples) σ - standard dev
|
|
Rejection region symbol: |
H0: ≥ or = (depending on claim) H1: < (less than so left-tailed) |
|
Rejection region symbol: |
H0: ≤ or = (depends on claim) H1: > (greater than so right-tailed) |
|
Rejection region symbol: |
H0: = H1: ≠ |
|
= words |
is, equal to, the same as, not changed from |
|
≠ words |
not equal, different from, changed from, not the same as |
|
> words |
increased, at least, greater than, higher than, bigger than, longer than |
|
< words |
decreased, at most, less than, reduced from, smaller than, lower than, shorter than, |
|
3 Illustration of rejection region |
Rejection/critical region Non-rejection/acceptance region Critical value |
|
- set of all values of the test statistic that causes us to reject the null hypothesis |
Critical or rejection region |
|
- set of all values of the test statistic that causes us to fail to reject a null hypothesis |
Non-rejection or acceptance region |
|
- point or boundary on the test distribution that is compared to the test statistic to determine if the null hypothesis would be rejected |
Critical value |
|
Level of significance: 0.10 and 0.05 is used for ___ 0.01 and 0.001 is used for __ |
:social teat :medical test |
|
one-tailed: |
H⁰: μX̄ ≤ μ H¹: μX̄ > μ or H⁰: μX̄ ≥ μ H¹: μX̄ < μ |
|
Point estimator formula |
p̂ = x/n x - # of data with same characteristics n - sample size |
|
2 criteria for z-test or p (population) |
np > 5 & nq > 5 p - population mean q - (1-p) n - sample size p̂ - sample proportion |
|
-test statistic is appropriate to use in testing hypothesis involving population proportion |
z-test |
|
Formula for test of population proportion |
|
|
Formula for test of significance (z or t test) |
|
|
All ___ can cause correlation but not all correlation can cause ___ |
causation |
|
- association between 2 variables - direct relationship - points to right / - one variable increases, the other also increases |
positive correlation |
|
- association between 2 variables - indirect/inverse relationship - points to left \ - one variable increases, the other decreases |
negative correlation |
|
- this is indicated by closeness of points to the trend line |
strength of correlation |
|
6 strengths of correlation (p.v.m.m.v.z.) |
perfect very high (strong) moderately high moderately low very low (weak) and zero correlation |
|
- used if they can assure a normal distribution |
data r parametrics |
|
What do you need to determine in data r parametrics? |
Σ: x, y, xy, x^2, y^2, and n |
|
negative sign indicates what in correlation |
inverse correlation \ |
|
- parametric statistics which measures the degree of correlation between 2 variables - states what type of relationship exists |
pearson r |
|
When other variables are controlled or manipulated just like in an experiment, this shows what type of correlation? |
perfect correlation |
|
shape or form of scatterplot can be describes as __ or __ |
linear or non-linear |
|
3 steps in test of population proportion |
1. determine given
2. get np nq, check criteria if np and nq > 5 3. solve for z-value - identify hypothesis/claims (H0 H1) - determine direction, critical value, draw rr - solve p̂ - compute z-value - decision (accept or reject H0) - conclusion |
