... These situations produce two samples that are not independent — they are related to each other. The members of one sample are identical to, or matched (paired) with, the members of the other sample. Example: Pre-test and post-test studies look at data collected on the same sample elements before and ...

Confidence Intervals – Introduction
... • For example, the sample mean X is a point estimate of the population mean μ but because of sampling variability, it is virtually never the case that x = μ . • A point estimate says nothing about how close it might be to μ. • An alternative to reporting a single sensible value for the parameter bei ...

... This stat converts the difference in means to a “t stat”, which can be evaluated with a t distribution. Recall that the t distribution is like a standard normal distribution, corrected for small sample sizes. There are different t distributions for different sample sizes (degrees of freedom). The de ...
