Across
  1. 3. parameter is larger or smaller than the null value
  2. 6. if the p-value is smaller than alpha
  3. 8. n-1
  4. 9. fail to reject the null, when it's false
  5. 10. reject the null, when it was true
  6. 13. the claim about the population we are trying to find evidence for
  7. 16. statistic that provides an estimate of a population parameter
  8. 17. the probability, computed assuming the null is true, that the statistic will take a value as or more extreme than the one observed
  9. 18. a range of values defined by a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it
  10. 19. how close the sample proportion will be, on average, to the population proportion
Down
  1. 1. the probability that the test will reject the null at a chosen signifigance level when the alternative value of the parameter is true
  2. 2. appropriate for finding a confidence interval for a population mean, when standard deviation is known and the sample is normally distributed
  3. 4. the claim tested by a statistical test
  4. 5. describes how far the mean will be from mu
  5. 6. procedure for comparing observed data to a claim
  6. 7. parameter is different from the null value
  7. 11. how close the estimate tends to be to the unkown parameter in repeated random sampling
  8. 12. best guess at the value of an unkown parameter
  9. 14. the probability calculations remain fairly accurate when a condition for using the procedure is violated
  10. 15. gives the overall success rate of the method for calculating the confidence interval
