Hypothesis Testing A statement has been made We must decide whether to b elieve it or not Our belief decision must ultimately stand on three legs What does our general background knowledge and experience tell us for example what is the reputation of the speaker. ©2013 Michael J. Rosenfeld. Draft date: 1/14/2013. The sample frame, or sample universe, is the data that our sample is drawn from. In the case of the March, 2000 CPS, the sample universe includes all people residing in the US in March, 2000, who were not living in institutional settings. This sample frame has N members.. STAT 250. Dr. Kari Lock Morgan. SECTION 4.3. Significance level (4.3). Statistical conclusions (4.3). p-value and H. 0. If the p-value is small, then a statistic as extreme as that observed would be unlikely if the null hypothesis were true, providing significant evidence against H. Hypothesis Testing. Test of hypothesis - Test whether a population parameter is less than, equal to, or greater than a specified value.. Remember an inference without a measure of reliability is little more than a guess.. Mr. Mark Anthony Garcia, M.S.. Mathematics Department. De La Salle University. Situation: Hypothesis Testing. Suppose that a political analyst predicted that senatorial candidate A will top the upcoming senatorial elections in city X with at least 0.70 or 70% of the votes.. VON CHRISTOPHER G. CHUA, LPT, MST.

In this fraction of the course on Statistical Methods, graduate students enrolled in the subject are expected to do the following:. Ho - this hypothesis holds that if the data deviate from the norm in any way, that deviation is due strictly to chance.. Alternative hypothesis. Ha - the data show something important.. Doing decision = accept/reject Ho (the decision centers around null hypothesis). Article: Do left-handers die earlier?. Group 3: Annabella Fong, Bok Wen Xuan, Goh Jie Sheng. Outline. Correlation of left-handers with age. Hypothesis testing using sample of Baseball players. Hypothesis testing using sample of . Inferential statistics. :. Based on laws of probability. Used to estimate population parameters from sample statistics . When different researchers apply inferential statistics to the same data resulting conclusions likely to be the same.
