Cards in this deck (13)
- 1One Sample CaseSelected by EPSEM
- 2Two Sample CasesSelected independently and randomly
- 3The greater the difference between the sample means,the farther the sample outcome will be from the mean of the sampling distribution
- 4As long as sample size is largethe sampling distribution of the differences in sample means will be normal, and the normal curve can be used to establish the critical regions
- 5The test statistic (Zobtained), will be computed by the usual formulaSample outcome minus the mean of the sampling distribution, divided by the standard deviation of the sampling distribution
- 6Pooled estimatecombines information from both samples
- 7Step OneMake assumptions and meet test requirments
- 8Step TwoState the null hypothesis
- 9Step ThreeSelect the sampling distribution and establish the critical region
- 10Step FourCompute the test statistic
- 11Step FiveMake a decision and interpret the results of the test
- 12The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis is a function of four independent factors1. The size of the observed differences
2. The alpha level
3. The use of one or two tailed tests
4. The size of the sample - 13—
