Conditions Flashcards
Conditions for One sample t test / t confidence interval
Normality: n > 30, or roughly normal distributions, or no outliers in the histogram
Randomization: Has to be randomly allocated (can still be from an oberservational study)
Conditions for Two sample t test / t confidence interval
Distribution: Equal SD so SD/sd < 2
Normality: n > 30, or roughly normal distributions, or no outliers in the histogram
Randomization: Has to be randomly allocated (can still be from an observational study)
Conditions for One sample z test / z confidence interval
Normality: np > 10 and n(1-p) > 10, or roughly normal distributions, or no outliers in the histogram
Randomization: Has to be randomly allocated (can still be from an observational study)
Conditions for Two sample z test / z confidence interval
(Distribution: Equal SD so SD/sd < 2)
(maybe)
Normality: np > 10 and n(1-p) > 10, or roughly normal distributions, or no outliers in the histogram
Randomization: Has to be randomly allocated (can still be from an observational study)
Conditions for ANOVA
Distribution: Equal SD so SD/sd < 2
Normality: n > 30, or roughly normal distributions, or no outliers in the histogram
Randomization: Has to be randomly allocated (can still be from an observational study)
Conditions for Chi Square
All expected counts exceed 5
Random allocation
Conditions for t test for regression line
Linearity: No curve
Independence: Randomization
Normality: No outliers in histogram of residuals
Equal population standard deviation: No megaphone pattern
