... • In the previous example, there was an odd number of values in the data set. • In this case it is easy to select the middle number in the data array. • When there is an even number of values in the data set, the median is obtained by taking the average of the two middle numbers. ...

Statistics with R - Hypothesis testing and distributions
... Rejecting H0 when it is actually true is called a Type I Error. In biomedical settings it can be considered a false positive. (Null hypothesis says “nothing is happening” but we decide “there is disease”.) Step 2. Specify an acceptable level of Type I error, α, normally 0.05 or 0.01. This is the thr ...

quartile deviation
... Quartiles are values in a given set of distribution that divide the data into four equal parts. Each set of scores has three quartiles. These values can be denoted by Q1, Q2, and Q3. First Quartile – Q1(lower quartile)- the middle number between the smallest number and the median of the data set ( ...

For a “real” probability this is a philosophical question, with various answers, none of them completely satisfactory. (Dice can be rolled repeatedly, “empirical probability” can be ...
