LECTURE 13: Cross
... We have done this exercise for the sample mean (so you could trace the computations), but α could be any other statistical operator. Here lies the real power of this procedure!! How many bootstrap samples should we use? As a rule of thumb, several hundred re-samples will be sufficient for most probl ...

... we could guess that µ is “somewhere” around 240.79. How close to 240.79 is µ likely to be? To answer this question, we must ask another: How would the sample mean x vary if we took many SRSs of size 16 from the population? ...

Standardized Difference: An Index to Measure the Effect Size
... Cohen (1962) proposed an effect size index (Cohen’s d) for the comparison of two sample means [1]. This quantity can be interpreted as a sample-based estimate of the strength of the relationship between two variables in a statistical population; more specifically, it can be interpreted as “a measure ...
