Definition
The margin of error is the half-width of a confidence interval. The confidence interval for a proportion is:
Term
Margin Of Error Of A Sample Mean
Definition
The half-width of a confidence interval for a sample mean.
Term
Binomial Distribution Formula
Definition
Term
Binomial Distribution Expected Value
Definition

EV(expected value)=n(sample size)p(probability)

 

EV=np

Term
Technical Conditions For 1-prop Ztest OR Interval
Definition
  • The data must be a simple random sample from the population of interest
  •                            
Term
Technical Conditions For T-test OR Interval
Definition
  • The data must be a simple random sample from the population of interest.
  • The sample size must be greater than or equal to 30 or the population is normally distributed.
Term
Technical Conditions for 2-Prop Ztest OR Interval
Definition
  • For the test:
    • The data must be either randomly assigned to treatment groups or a simple random sample from both populations.
    •  
    •  
  • For the interval:
    • The data must be either randomly assigned to treatment groups or a simple random sample from both populations.
    • There must be 5 successes and 5 failures in each group.
Term
Technical Conditions For 2-Prop Ztest OR Interval
Definition
  • The data must be a simple random sample from the population of interest or be randomly assigned to treatment groups.
  • Both sample sizes must be greater than or equal to 30 or both populations must be normally distributed.
Term
Technical Conditions For The Difference Between Two Means (paired) T-test
Definition

The technical conditions are the same for a 1-sample t-procedure but the observational units are pairs and the data used is the differences or the two populations.

  • The data must be a simple random sample from both populations of interest.
  • Both population sizes must be greater than or equal to 30.
Term
Technical Conditions for a X2 GOF Test
Definition
  • The data must be a simple random sample from the population of interest.
  • The expected count of each box must be at least 5.

The degrees of freedom are found by the number of rows -1 multiplied by the number of columns -1.

  • df=(r-1)(c-1)
Term
Technical Conditions For The X2 GOF Test Of Independence
Definition
  • The data are a simple random sample from the population of interest.
  • The expected counts are at least 5 in each box.

The degrees of freedom are found by the number of rows -1 multiplied by the number of columns -1.

  • df=(r-1)(c-1)
