58 Terms

1

Degrees of freedom

which depends on how chi-square is being used.

New cards
2

The population standard deviation is 𝜎=√2(df).

New cards
3

Population mean

μ = df

New cards
4

Random variable

X^2

New cards
5

Squared standard normal variables

χ2 = (Z1)^2 + (Z2)^2 + ... + (Zk)^2

New cards
6

The null and alternative hypotheses for GOF

may be written in sentences or may be stated as equations or inequalities.

New cards
7

Null hypothesis

The observed values of the data values and expected values are values you would expect to get.

New cards
8

Degrees of freedom GOF

Number of categories - 1

New cards
9

The goodness of fit is usually right-tailed

New cards
10

Large test statistic

Observed values and corresponding expected values are not close to each other.

New cards
11

Expected value rule

Needs to be above 5 to be able to use the test

New cards
12

Test of independence

Determines whether two factors are independent or not

New cards
13

The null hypothesis for independence

states that the factors are independent

New cards
14

The alternative hypothesis for independence

states that they are not independent (dependent).

New cards
15

Independence degrees of freedom

(number of columns -1)(number of rows - 1)

New cards
16

Expected value formula

(row total)(column total) / total number surveyed

New cards
17

Test for Homogeneity

used to draw a conclusion about whether two populations have the same distribution

New cards
18

Ho for Homogeneity

The distributions of the two populations are the same.

New cards
19

Ha for Homogeneity

The distributions of the two populations are not the same.

New cards
20

The test statistic for Homogeneity

Use a χ2 test statistic. It is computed in the same way as the test for independence.

New cards
21

Goodness-of-Fit

decides whether a population with an unknown distribution "fits" a known distribution.

New cards
22

Ho for GOF

The population fits the given distribution

New cards
23

Ha for GOF

The population does not fit the given distribution.

New cards
24

Independence

decides whether two variables are independent or dependent. There will be two qualitative variables and a contingency table will be constructed.

New cards
25

Ho for Independence

The two variables (factors) are independent.

New cards
26

Ha for Independence

The two variables (factors) are dependent.

New cards
27

Homogeneity

decides if two populations with unknown distributions have the same distribution as each other. There will be a single qualitative survey variable given to two different populations.

New cards
28

Ho of Homogeneity

The two populations follow the same distribution.

New cards
29

Ha of Homogeneity

The two populations have different distributions.
