Hypothesis testing and determining limitations
Frage 6
Frage
What is a confidence interval?
Antworten
-
How likely a particular value or set of values is in the given data
-
An estimation of the confidence results are significant
-
An estimation of the area that encompasses a particular value
-
A tool to define a prediction, i.e. is it true or not
Frage 7
Frage
What is hypothesis testing?
Antworten
-
How likely a particular value or set of values is in the given data
-
A way to test if the hypothesis can be applied to the entire population
-
A way to test if the hypothesis is valid
-
A tool to define a prediction regarding a statement about the population parameter, i.e. is it true or not
Frage 8
Frage
What is the sampling distribution?
Antworten
-
A hypothetical distribution of values of a particular population parameter made by repeatedly sampling "n" times from a sample and calculating the value of the statistic for each sample
-
A hypothetical distribution of values of a particular sample statistic made by repeatedly sampling "n" times from a population and calculating the value of the population parameter for each sample
-
A hypothetical distribution of values of a particular sample statistic made by repeatedly sampling "n" times from a population and calculating the value of the statistic for each sample
Frage 9
Frage
The standard error of the mean only refers to the [blank_start]experiment[blank_end] [blank_start]that you are doing now[blank_end], i.e. the behaviour of the averages collected [blank_start]in the experiment[blank_end], while the variance is the noise in the [blank_start]population[blank_end].
Antworten
-
experiment
-
population
-
sample
-
that you are doing now
-
parameter
-
statistic
-
that you did previously
-
in the experiment
-
for the population
-
in a previous experiment
-
populations
-
experiments
-
samples
-
sampling distributions
Frage 10
Frage
M is the unbiased estimate of μ
Antworten
- True
- False
Frage 11
Frage
[blank_start]Variability[blank_end] tells you how much you can trust your [blank_start]experiment[blank_end]
Antworten
-
Variability
-
experiment
Frage 12
Frage
As 'n' gets larger, you get a better estimate of the [blank_start]true population mean[blank_end].
Antworten
-
true population mean
Frage 13
Frage
Decreasing standard deviation makes the σ²M more spread out, and pulls data away from the population mean.
Antworten
- True
- False
