When sample sizes are small and the population standard deviation is not known, statisticians make use of the t-distribution, which is bell-shaped, but differs from ...

... Example: For a simple random sample of adults, IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. A simple random sample of 13 statistics professors yields a standard deviation of s = 7.2. Assume that IQ scores of statistics professors are normally distributed and ...

The first is a repeat of the model χ2 test reported at the bottom of the sem output. The saturated model is the model that fits the covariances perfectly. We can reject at the 5% ...

A test statistic calculated from the sample data measures how far the data diverge from what we would expect if the ...
