🗑
show Some subset of the population intended to represent the population  
🗑
show Each individual thing in the population that can be sampled  
🗑
Define sampling frame   show
🗑
Define census   show
🗑
show -Each sample has an equal chance of selection -Each item has number -Random number generator  
🗑
Advantages of simple random sample   show
🗑
show -Not suitable for large population -Sampling frame needed  
🗑
Define systematic sample   show
🗑
show -Simple -Quick -Suitable for large populations  
🗑
Disadvantages of systematic sample   show
🗑
Define stratified sample   show
🗑
Advantages of stratified sample   show
🗑
Disadvantages of stratified sample   show
🗑
show -Population divided into groups according to sampling frame -Interviewer selects quotas to reflect groups proportions  
🗑
show -Small sample is still representative -Easy -Cheap -Comparable  
🗑
Disadvantages of quota sample   show
🗑
show Sample taken from people at the time, who meet criteria  
🗑
show -Easy -Cheap  
🗑
show -Not representative -Dependant on researcher  
🗑
show Strata size x sample size/total population  
🗑
show Qualitative- Descriptive Quantitative- Numerical  
🗑
show Discreet- Only takes certain values Continuous- Takes all values  
🗑
show Greater than Q3+k(Q3-Q1) Less than Q1-k(Q3-Q1)  
🗑
Define cleaning the data   show
🗑
What do we plot for cumulative frequency diagrams   show
🗑
show Frequency density=(Frequency x k)/Class width  
🗑
show Continuous data  
🗑
show Discreet data  
🗑
show -Measure of location -Measure of spread  
🗑
What axis is the independent variable on   show
🗑
show Y  
🗑
show There are pairs of values for two variable  
🗑
show Change in one variables causes a change in the other  
🗑
show Estimating a variable within the data range  
🗑
Define extrapolation   show
🗑
show To minimise standard deviation  
🗑
show For data within the data range  
🗑
Define mutually exclusive   show
🗑
If events are mutually exclusive: P(A or B)=   show
🗑
Define independent events   show
🗑
show P(A) x P(B)  
🗑
Define random variable   show
🗑
Define discreet uniform distribution   show
🗑
show 1  
🗑
show -Fixed no of trials(n) -2 possible outcomes -Fixed probability of success (P) -Trials are independent of each other  
🗑
P(X<Y)=   show
🗑
show 1-P(X≤Y-1)  
🗑
P(X>Y)=   show
🗑
show The result of the experiment or the statistic that is calculated  
🗑
show The hypothesis you assume to be correct  
🗑
show Tells you about the parameter if your assumption is wrong  
🗑
show A region of the probability distribution which if the test statistic falls within it would cause you to reject the null hypothesis  
🗑
show The first value to fall in the critical region  
🗑
show The probability of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis  
🗑
What are the steps of a one tailed hypothesis test   show
🗑
show Halve the significance level  
🗑
If y+ax^n then logy=   show
🗑
show logk+xlogb  
🗑
show The strength and direction of the correlation  
🗑
show If there is LINEAR correlation  
🗑
If we are hypothesis testing for correlation what are the null and alternate hypothesis   show
🗑
show P(P|A)  
🗑
show P(A|B)=P(A|B')=P(A)  
🗑
show P(A∪B)  
🗑
(P(B∩A))/(P(A))=   show
🗑

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
