Notes
... Ideally we would like a test with α = β = 0. Like most of life this ideal is impossible. For a fixed sample size increasing α will in general decrease β and vice versa. So the general prescription in designing hypothesis tests is to fix α of a small number and design a test that will give as small a ...

Introduction to the Practice of Statistics
... In order to do well in statistics, one needs to understand what information is available to them. This will be specially true in later chapters. So let us start good habits now. What is known? The distribution is normal (Knowing the distribution type is tremendously important). Do I know the paramet ...

... Empirically, probability can be defined as the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes, in other words, the chance that an event will occur. Formally, the probability, p of an event can be described as the normalized “area” of some event within an event space, S , that c ...

We can perform clinical trials to estimate the probability that a randomly chosen individual tests positive given that they have the disease, P {test positive|has the dis ...
