... As we have just said (repeatedly): If you were to plot the distribution of sample means and draw a density curve, you would quickly find that the distribution of all of those means is Normal. This leads us to one of the most important concepts in an introductory statistics ...

17. sampling and statistical inference
... We often need to know something about a large population. Eg: What is the average income of all Stern students? It’s often too expensive and time-consuming to examine the entire population. An efficient solution: Choose a small random sample and use the methods of statistical inference to draw concl ...

The Importance of Sampling
... It is easy to understand the cost and the sample size but not as easy to understand the importance of proper sampling versus convenience sampling. ...

... If subjects were paired and then split at random into the two treatment groups, or if each subject received both treatments, then use a paired t test. Beware of making inferences in the absence of randomization. The results may not be generalized to the larger population of interest. The Practice ...

Statistical Decision Theory - AMSI Vacation Research Scholarship
... In the decision-making process, experiments are usually performed to better understand the unknown quantity θ. The random variables are denoted X = (X1 , X2 , · · · , Xn ) from a common distribution independently and we denote x = (x1 , x2 , · · · , xn ) as the observed values. One of the goals of d ...

notes
... The one-sample t interval for a population mean is similar in both reasoning and computational detail to the one-sample z interval for a population proportion. As before, we have to verify three important conditions before we estimate a population mean. ...
