PPT-Confidence Interval Estimation

Confidence Intervals on and An interval estimator is a formula that tells us how to use sample data to calculate an interval that estimates a population parameter The confidence coefficient is the probability that an interval estimator encloses the population parameter. . .. .

When I cover the entire population I get to know the truth – precisely.. That means that when my sample size is high I get a more precise answer.. That means that when my sample size increases my preciseness increases. Excel. GrowingKnowing.com © 2011. 1. GrowingKnowing.com © 2011. Estimates. We are often asked to predict the future!.

In descriptive statistics, the analyst has knowledge of the population data. The use of descriptive statistics such as mean, mode, and standard deviation is typically intended for "collapsing" the population data for convenience of reporting or interpretation. In inferential statistics, knowledge about the population is limited to what can be derived from samples. For whatever reason (both economic and logical reasons) it is not possible to view all of the population data, so we must examine our sample data, and make inferences about the population. We can view this process as illustrated in the following figure: . GrowingKnowing.com © 2011. 1. GrowingKnowing.com © 2011. Estimates. We are often asked to predict the future!.
