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