t Tests for One Mean: Introduction

HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 16 фев 2013
  • An introduction to t tests for one population mean. I briefly discuss when we use the test, and when we would use a z test instead. I also briefly discuss the hypotheses of the test, and the p-value for different alternatives. I then work through an example. (If you are comfortable with the basics of hypothesis testing, and understand the difference between t and z procedures from confidence intervals, then much of this video may be review.) If you are just looking for an example, it starts at 7:00.
    The reaction time data is simulated data with the same summary statistics as found in:
    Armstrong et al. (2012). Mild Dehydration Affects Mood in Healthy
    Young Women. Journal of Nutrition, 142: 382-388.

    I wish you'd continue to be enthusiastic in your videos like the earlier ones. Its so rare to find someone talking about statistics with actual enthusiasm in their voice. Its also rare that a person laughs when watching a video on two sample t-tests. But I think your videos are very concise and enlightening. Thanks for your work with these videos!

    I am in an applied statistics and research class and I am currently reviewing for our upcoming final. I enjoyed the video. It was straight forward and informative. One thing that I would like to see and what I am still trying to figure out is when you should apply the one sample t-test rather than another test such as the two sample t-test or the matched pairs test or even simple linear regression. For my final I will just be given a word problem and I will have to decide which test to use on my own without being told. There are 7 different tests that the professor may ask us about so differentiating between each is where I struggle. Anyway good video and I'm just giving my feedback. Thanks for reading.

    But if the t distribution has a large number of samples we can measure it as z ,as my teacher said.

    how do i know which one to use, t table or normal distribution or F table?

    • @jbstatistics
      @jbstatistics  6 лет назад +2

      If we needed to find an area or percentile of a t distribution (which would arise if we were doing a t test without using software), then we'd use a t table.
      If we needed to find an area or percentile of the standard normal distribution (which would arise if we were doing a Z test without software), then we'd use a standard normal table.
      If we needed to find an area or percentile of an F distribution (which would arise if we were doing an F test without software), then we'd use an F table..

    Excellent videos. I teach statistics at the community college level. I have a Masters in Mathematics not in statistics. I notice you use the term zed for z, am I incorrect in saying z rather than zed? I am assuming zed is the Greek equivalent to z.

    • @faalentijn
      @faalentijn 4 года назад

      So, I am about to fail statistics but I am pretty sure this more a dialect thing than anything else. In American English it is common to pronounce the letter z as zee, while in British accents they prefer pronouncing it as zed. Jeremy Balka is a professor at a university in Canada where they use British English so he pronounces it as 'zed'. In short, they way you were teaching your students is fine :)

    • @JiangXiang

      Although Canada do not speak British English, they do use 'zed' for z :)

    In 12:10 if we were to use the critical value from the t table it would be 2.06 and since the value we got was 1.389 we fail to reject the Null hypothesis correct ?

    • @richardl.4374
      @richardl.4374 3 года назад +1

      While if a=0.05 but it alternative hypothesis is one sided , saying mu > mu not , the critical value would be 1.711? And since 1.389 would still not be within 1.711 we again fail to reject the null hypothesis in this case ?
