Chapter 5 Measures of Variability
... A major goal in statistics is to use sample values as estimates of population values. Therefore a major criterion in deciding which sample statistic to use is how well it estimates its corresponding population parameter Samples tend to have less variability than populations Thus the sample variance ...

Simple Linear Regression
... We have been introduced to the notion that a categorical variable could depend on different levels of another variable when we discussed contingency tables. We’ll extend this idea to the case of predicting a continuous response variable from different levels of another variable. We say the vari ...

Implicitly, we are saying that if we had one additional data value we would compute Tn+1 (x1 , . . . , xn+1 ) rather than Tn (x1 , . . . , xn ), and if the entire population were available we would compute TN ...
