Q

What is it

A

Standard deviation
-how spread out the data are from the mean

T test
-is the difference in value of mean between different results are statistically significant

Q

Standard deviation

A

1)value of data from a result collected - mean
2)square it
3)do it for all result in that category
4)n = sets of data collected
5)n-1
6)divide value of step 3 with n-1
7)square root it for standard deviation

Q

T test

A

1) x = mean of sample 1 and 2 and take away sample 1 mean from 2
2)square the standard deviation from first sample
3)divide S by N of sample 1
4)repeat step 2 + 3 with sample 2
5)add value of answer of sample 1+2
6)square root it
7)divide value of step 1 with value from step 6

Answer = t value
Degree of freedom = (n from sample 1 - 1) + (n from sample 2 - 1)
Compare to critical value of 0.05 probability to see if null hypothesis accepted or rejected
