What is a Null hypothesis
There is no statistically significant impact or difference (h0)
0 is little
What is the purpose of statistical tests?
To determined if you can accept or reject an null hypothesis
What is the alpha and what does it need to be
Alpha - confidence that the difference is not due to random chance
95%
What do the P values need to be to reject or accept a null hypothesis
P value more than 0.05 - reject the hypothesis
p value less than 0.05 - accept the hypothesis
What do the
S
X
X- (with the line above)
N
mean in the standard deviation equation
S - standard deviation
X - difference
X (with line above) - Mean of difference
N - Sample size
What do the
T
Sd
D (with a line above)
N
mean in the paired T - test
T - t-value
Sd - standard deviation
D (with a line above) - Mean of difference
N - sample size
How do you tell if the null hypothesis is significant
T-value larger the P- value = significant
