    Thank you so much! Truly though...you had it in you the entire time. Sometimes we just need to see things in a different way. I just try to light it from a new angle. :) My mother has been a nurse for 32 years, so I commend you for helping those who are most vulnerable.
    Hang in there. People need you,

    You are the epitome of an educator/teacher. I love your starting quotes as they sort of motivate me and put me into the right gear for the lesson to come. Your pace, your content and your delivery in general sets you apart from every teacher I've ever come across. And the weird part is I'm never left with any doubts or queries after your lesson. You answer my query the moment I think of it like you're telepathic. And the best part is although I can't see you or communicate in real time while your teaching, you do a waaay better job that face to face teachers.

    Finally. A teacher who really knows how to teach this material. The textbook I'm using for grad school stinks, and most of the other videos are terrible. Thank you Mr. Foltz for breaking this material down to its bare bones and making it easy to understand.

    Mr. Foltz
    A couple of years ago I decided to complete my doctorate. Ím 51 years old. Today I was revising my you tube channel due to the fact of Covid-19 quarantine and find your videos. If it wasn’t for you I will not be any near to complete my stats courses. Thank you, thank you and thank you on behave of all the people depending of that achievement. Keep the good fight.

    @BrandonFoltz  11 лет назад

    Hello! YES! You are correct. Ho less than / equal to 255, Ha greater than 255. Just be careful how the conclusion is stated. Even if you reject Ho, that does not "prove" that Ha is "true." Doing so involves the risk of Type I error. That rejection data point may just be in the 5% or whatever that we expect to fall outside the rejection region for Ho. If you have any other questions let me know! - B

  • @BrandonFoltz
    @BrandonFoltz  11 лет назад

    Hey Rummy. In this case, per the way ak0607 stated the problem, the key word for me is "test." For the > to be with Ho it would have to be an assumption not something that is being tested for. To test for >255 the assumption in the null would be the opposite.

    Excellent, very clear and perfect for beginners or for struggling students. His practical examples makes you wonder why all intro stats courses are not taught this way.
    I'm working my way through all of his tutorials. I haven't studied or used stats in over 35 years. This is a great way to get up to snuff.

    You are the BEST teacher I will ever know! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS A LOT EASIER. I cannot thank you enough! I've been struggling understanding these concepts for quiet a while now and NO ONE has done a better job than you. I honestly wish you're my statistics professor, then I would say the money I'm paying to go to CAL POLY POMONA is worth it. Now, I don't know if it's the stress that this professor is causing but I got to the point of crying for desperate help. My point here is to THANK YOU for the best explanation on this subject. I am definitely recommending you to my fellow classmates and family! Thank you, and I'll "see" you in your other videos, because I'm sure I'll be learning the rest of the course with you! :)

  • @LM-uq9nv
    @LM-uq9nv 3 года назад

    And...there it is. More than halfway through the third video. All this time, I just wanted to know what "null" meant in words, and started to think that maybe it was an abstraction or " je ne sais quoi" . Saying that "null" means nothing new or different the first time the term was introduced would have made everything afterward so much clearer.
    Please know that I just discovered and love your videos. I am a month into a research methods course, and none of the text books, presentations or other materials have done this either. No wonder students are confused!

    Thank you so much for making this concept(Null Hypothesis) clear and easy to understand. I read and reread the same chapter in my Greenbelt(LSS) training module 5 times and was still lost until I saw this video. Thanks for making learning interesting and and fun to do. I will be viewing your other videos on the Normal distribution as well.

  • @BrandonFoltz
    @BrandonFoltz  11 лет назад

    Without seeing what you are seeing it is hard for me to comment. But the null and alternative hypotheses have to be all-inclusive on the distribution curve. An Ho with just an = sign as a one-tailed test does not make sense. If just = is used, then the rejection region could fall on either side (two tailed). The sign/equality in Ho and the one or two-tailed non-rejection regions are inseparable.

  • @wh33l6r
    @wh33l6r 10 лет назад +1

    Some of the most well thought out and helpful explanations of difficult subjects that I've come across. Great job! Problem though: it appears that some of your videos, like z tests, etc., were developed in a sequence wherein you state that having seen a previous video might be helpful to understanding the present video. Unfortunately, there is nothing in the titles of the videos to distinguish that sequence. One has to get several minutes into a video only to discover that having watched another one first would help. The viewer then has to search around trying to locate that video. Having videos identified in their subject line/title by their place in a sequence, if one exists, would be most helpful. Otherwise, terrific learning experience! Thanks!

  • @BrandonFoltz
    @BrandonFoltz  11 лет назад

    Hello Siddartha! Actually if you look around that time what I say is that Ho will always contain the equal sign in some form, either equal to, less than or equal to, or greater than or equal to. With just = it is a two-tailed test, the others are one-tailed tests. As you can see, all three of them do contain the = sign. Let me know if you have any other questions. - B

    Thanks
    15:30 what is considered a null hypothesis and what it considered an alternative hypothesis
    Null hypothesis is testing a status quo/assumption. We can only reject this assumption or fail to reject it, but we can’t prove it.
    Null hypothesis example: water bottles are 355mL full
    If we reject it then there is evidence that they are not 355, if we fail to reject then no evidence

    Could you please explain this?
    30,000 students
    Average: 5.5 years to graduate
    Years in college until graduation are normally distributed with the standard deviation of: 0.8
    Sample mean for 16 political science student: 5.8 years
    1. Write a set of hypotheses (null and alternative hypotheses) to answer the question
    Ho: M : 5.5
    H1: M is not 5.5
    2. Test your hypotheses.
    - 2.1. Show a sampling distribution of the years in college for KU students using R. Submit your R commands, as well.
    - 2.2. What is the probability of a KU student taking longer than 5.8 years to graduate?
    - 2.3. Report the result of your hypothesis testing.

    • @Dan-mk5oz
      @Dan-mk5oz 7 лет назад

      you say on the video that the alternative hypothese cannot contain "=" but my alternative hypothese is 5.8 how do i write that? or is it just "not equal to 5.5"

Can you please comment on it as soon as possible as I have a seminar tomorrow. Please refer me the book from which you referred.

    @PadmanabhViolin 9 лет назад

    Hello Brandon Great Video and Good examples. A request would you advise adding an introductory module on "Descriptive vs inferential statistics". This would set the stage in the sense that in the context of Inferential statistics where a sample based approach has to be taken, its confidence interval, representative sample and the Null and Alternate hypothesis would make more sense ? Would that set the context better for the discussion. In descriptive stats as the population is the scope all these may not fit in. Hope I make sense.
