Residuals Date: _____________________ Introduction The fit of a linear function to a set of data can be assessed by analyzing__________________. A residual is the vertical distance between an observed data value and an estimated data value on a line of best fit. Representing residuals on a___________________________ provides a visual representation of the residuals for a set of data. A residual plot contains the points: (x‚ residual for x). A random residual plot‚ with both

(Topic 3: Hypothesis Testing) ------------------------------------------------- Procedure for Hypothesis Testing Step 1: Formulate the null and alternative hypothesis. Draw the one-tail or two- tail test diagram. Step 2: Specify the level of significance. Determine the critical value (s). Step 3: Identify the test statistics to be used and calculate it. Step 4: Draw the conclusion. Formulae List Hypothesis Testing Test Statistics for Single Mean | | Test Statistics for Two

Chapter 4. Hypothesis testing The main aim of the module is to familiarize students with the theoretical knowledge of hypothesis testing and then train them in applying theory to economic practice. After completing this module‚ students will be familiar with: the procedure of hypothesis testing; the possible outcomes in hypothesis testing; the difference between significant and nonsignificant statistical findings. After completing this module‚ students will be able to:

Precipitation Hypothesis Testing Paper Learning Team One Research and Evaluation II – RES 342 University of Phoenix Precipitation Hypothesis Testing Learning team one will test if there is more precipitation in the three months of the spring in 2006 or is it greater than or equal to the three months in the winter in Rockville‚ which is located in Montgomery County‚ Maryland. We will look at the validity of the local average precipitation (rainfall) during the months of December

Your tasks: Data Collection: • Determine 4 to 6 variables (at least 2 quantitative and 2 qualitative) you would like to collect information on from the sample. • Write a survey that asks clear questions that will allow you to collect your data. Type this survey up in (with your name somewhere

five steps of hypothesis testing and the 5% significance level (i.e. alpha = .05)‚ does showing the film change students’ attitudes towards the chronically mentally ill? What does it mean to set alpha at .05? Alpha means making a Type I error same as significance level. When the alpha is at .05 it means that the researcher doesn’t want to take a big risk therefore sets the alpha to .05. By doing this it will make it hard for hypothesis testing process to reject the null hypothesis unless it is

Techniques of Hypothesis Testing Dr. Scott Stevens Objectives When you finish reading this article‚ you should be able to • Determine the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses for your hypothesis test • Determine if your test is one- or two- tailed • Conduct an appropriate test using Excel in any of three ways o Using the critical score approach o Using the non-rejection region approach (for a two-tailed test) o Using the P-value approach

Hypothesis testing begins with the assumption that randomization is used to collect quantitative data about the sample and that the distribution of this data has a normal shape. Significance tests state two explanations‚ or hypotheses‚ about a parameter. One‚ called the null hypothesis‚ states that the parameter equals some value (usually 0). The other‚ called the alternative hypothesis‚ states that the parameter is greater than‚ less than or (not) equal to the value stated in the null hypothesis
