, Statistical techniques I (Z and Chi-squared tests)
Pr (data∨H 0 ) the probability of the data sample given that the H0 is true.
= very unlikely reject the H0
= likely retain the H0
point estimate−expected value
Test statistic=
standard error
Dependent and independent measurements
Dependent Independent
Within test subjects Comparison between 2 groups
Paired measurements Unpaired measurements
One sample Z-test
Dichotomous variable only
When the binomial distribution approaches a very large n with many low probabilities then
it is appropriate to replace the test statistic to z-test
X−π 0
Z=
SE
Where the SE in this case is σ calculated by σ =
√ π (1 – π )
n
**** with the Z-value it is important to realize that the table entry is to the left of the Z
value. Therefore, if it is Pr ( Z >0.63 )=1−0.7357 .
Assumptions:
n π 0 ≥ 10∧n(1−π ¿¿ 0)≥10 ¿
Then do a z-test instead. Where the π 0is the population proportion under H0
Population is larger than the sample (approximately x20)
Sample is random
CI assumptions for one sample z-test
The same as above
N success > 15 and non-successes > 15
Otherwise n+2/n+4 rule
If the p value lies within the CI intervals, then you retain the H0
If the p value lies outside of the CI intervals, then you reject the H0
