21
Q

22
Q

Bench to Bedside

A

To give treatments/interventions learned and developed to be given to the patients as soon as possible

23
Q

When (p) = .01, will the event likely happen or not likely happen?

A

Unlikely to occur

24
Q

When (p) = .99, will the event likely happen or not likely happen?

A

Will occur

25
What is the formula for probability?
p=number of occurrences over total number of possible occurrences
26
T distribution tests
Determines confidence level
27
What are confidence levels used in health research?
95% or 99% CI
28
What are the steps in hypothesis testing?
1. State the alternative test 2. State the null hypothesis 3. Set the decision level 4. Calculate the probability of being true 5. Make decision concerning hypothesis
29
What are the four considerations of selecting an appropriate inferential test?
- Scales of measurement- ordinal, nominal etc - Number of groups - Selected from independent participants - Using a statistical test
