... • The limiting prior of both the Uniform and Normal is a Uniform prior on the whole real line. • Such a prior is defined as improper as it is not strictly a probability distribution and doesn’t integrate to 1. • Some care has to be taken with improper priors however in many cases they are acceptable ...

Estimation in Sampling!?
... • Z is valid only if the sample size is greater than 30 so our confidence interval equation must be altered if we have a smaller sample. • Instead we use a t-distribution which approaches the standard normal value as the sample size approaches 30. • In this instance the confidence interval formula i ...

... underlying population had an equal chance of being selected • The classic case is rolling an unbiased dice • Each time the die is rolled you have an equal chance of the result being 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 • There are no history effects! • If you rolled 600,000 dice and recorded the results you would end up ...

Tutorial 5: Power and Sample Size for One
... Power is the probability that a study will reject the null hypothesis. The estimated probability is a function of sample size, variability, level of significance, and the difference between the null and alternative hypotheses. Similarly, the sample size required to ensure a pre-specified power for a ...
