Q

Frequency distribution of the statistic computed from each of all the
possible samples of the population

A

SAMPLING DISTRIBUTION OF A STATISTIC

22
Q

Knowing the properties of the sampling distribution will help in:

A
  1. ESTIMATING POPULATION PARAMETERS

2. TEST HYPOTHESIS ABOUT POPULATION PARAMETERS

23
Q

TF The sampling distribution of statistical mean reflects the frequency distribution of
sample means of all possible samples of size n.

24
Q

TF Population parameter is generally known

25
TF Sampling distribution cannot be constructed in reality
T
26
TF The best estimate of the population mean (U) is the mean of the sample mean (x)
T
27
Only applicable when the sample is RANDOM
POINT ESTIMATE
28
point estimate Identify: • Variable: • Population: • Sample:
QUANTITATIVE, PARAMETER WANTED, RANDOM
29
TF statistical mean is an estimate of population mean and they are equal
F
30
Interval constructed is called:
CONFIDENCE LEVEL
31
- from literature | - from previous studies
POPULATION STANDARD DEVIATION Z TEST
32
IF POPULATION SD IS ABSENT WE WILL USE?
STATISCAL SD T TEST
33
Variable of interest of population proportion is
QUALITATIVE
34
TF In sampling distribution of population propotions, The sampling distribution of p reflects the frequency distribution of population proportions of all possible samples of size n
F- POPULATION - T- SAMPLE
35
TF The distribution is normally distributed in sampling distribution of population proportion.
T
36
decision is towards
null hypothesis
37
is towards alternative hypothesis
conclusion
38
• A non-parametric test that test the association between two variables.
CHI-SQUARE TEST OF INDEPENDENCE
38
• A parametric test used in determining relationship between | two set of data.
Pearson r (Bivariate - 2 variables)
39
A non-parametric test used to find out if there is a significant relationship between 2 variables.
Spearman rank (rs)
40
- The joint distribution of the variables x and y is also a normal distribution
Pearson r (Bivariate - 2 variables)
41
Under correlation analysis
``` Spearman rank (rs) Pearson r (Bivariate - 2 variables) ```
42
• Qualitative Description of Coefficient of Correlation
Pearson r (bivariate - 2 variables)
43
– used to measure both the strength and the direction of the relationship between two quantitative variable. Done through the computation of the correlation coefficient.
Correlation analysis
44
used coefficient in interval/ratio
pearson r
45
used coefficient for ordinal data
spearman rank
46
TF in pearson r, the closer the value to one, the greater the strength of linear relationship
T
47
The value in pearson r indicates?
magnitude
48
- we will test for the existence of relationship or association between two qualitative variables in a single population.
CHI-SQUARE TEST OF INDEPENDENCE
49
We will we will test whether or not variable x is associated with variable y
CHI-SQUARE TEST OF INDEPENCE
