Simple Tests of Hypotheses for the Non-statistician: What They Are and Why They Can Go Bad
... In the above example of a PROC TTEST there is a secondary test of the assumption of equality of variances ï. This particular test is called an F test and its name is taken from the probability distribution that is used to formulate the significance level. This is only one of a number of other tests ...

... These figures are minimum values of n for which the equation (tα+ tβ) s√(2/n)≤δ is true, where δ is the target change, subject to a minimum of 2 for a statistical comparison to be made. This indicates that the test will probably be sufficiently powerful to identify the target change as being a stati ...

The 40% corresponds to a proportion of 0.40, and 0.40 is called a sample proportion. It is an estimate of the proportion of all adults who would say they pay “a great deal” or a ...
