Which excel formula is used when testing for the difference of two population means when sigma is known? | The Z-Test: Two Sample for Means |
Which excel formula is used when testing for the difference of two population means when sigma is unknown? | The T-Test: Two Sample Assuming Unequal Variances |
Which excel formula is used when testing for dependent means, or matched samples? | The T-Test: Paired Two Sample for Means |
Which excel formula is used when testing for the difference of two population proportions? | The Two Proportion Z-Test |
Which distribution is used for Z-tests? | The standard normal distribution |
Which distribution is used for T-tests? | The Student's T test distribution |
Which distribution is used for Chi-Square tests? | The Chi-Square distribution |
What does Matrix I represent? | The actual or observed values |
What does Matrix II represent? | The expected values |
What is used to calculate the expected values? | The marginal totals |
What three things can the Chi-Square (CHISQ.TEST) test for? | Equality of population proportions for three or more populations, independence and goodness of fit |
What does the equality test of three or more populations test for? | If each proportion is equal to one another |
What is the null hypothesis of the equality test? | p1 = p2 = p3 |
What is the alternative hypothesis of the equality test? | Not all population proportions are equal |
If we reject the null when using the equality test what can we conclude? | There is enough evidence to show that not all population proportions are equal |
When testing for equality and using a multiple comparison procedure, what procedure do we use? | The Marisculo Procedure |
What does the test of independence test for? | Testing to see if there is a relationship between the two variables |
What is the null hypothesis of the independence test? | Variable one is independent of variable two |
What is the alternative hypothesis of the independence test? | Variable one is not independent of variable two |
If we reject the null when using the independence test what can we conclude? | There is a relationship between the variables |
What does the goodness of fit test for? | Testing to see if the a distribution of data follows a known distribution |
What is the null hypothesis of the goodness of fit test? | The data does follow a known distribution |
What is the alternative hypothesis of the goodness of fit test? | The data does not follow a known distribution |
What is the ANOVA (Anova: single factor) test used for? | If three or more population means are equal |
What is the null hypothesis of the ANOVA test? | u1 = u2 = u3 |
What is the alternative hypothesis of the ANOVA test? | Not all population means are equal |
What can we conclude if we reject the null hypothesis in an ANOVA test? | There is enough evidence to show that not all population means are equal |
What is the next step after rejecting a Null hypothesis in an ANOVA test? | A multiple comparison procedure using Fisher's LSD |
Which hypothesis test should be used when sigma is unknown and u1 - u2 > 0? | T-Test for two sample assuming unequal variance |
What p-value is used when less than or greater than signs are present? | One-tailed p-value |
When the p-value is less than alpha what do we do? | Reject the null hypothesis |
When do confidence intervals and conclusions agree? | When the concluded hypothesis and confidence interval are either both greater than or less than 0 |
Which hypothesis test should be used when sigma is known and u1 - u2 is < 0? | Z-Test for two sample means |
Which hypothesis test should be used when two means are dependent on each other and the null is ud = 0? | T-Test paired two sample for means |
Which hypothesis test should be used when p1 - p2 = 0? | Two proportion Z-test |
What p-value is used when equal signs are present? | Two-tailed p-value |
Which hypothesis test should be used when p1 = p2 = p3? | Chi-Square equality of population proportions for three or more populations |
Which hypothesis test should be used when the variables are independent or not independent? | Chi-Square test of independence |
Which hypothesis test should be used when u1 = u2 = u3....? | The ANOVA test |
What multiple comparison procedure is used when the null hypothesis is rejected in an ANOVA test? | Fisher's LSD, which figures out which means are different |
