Across
  1. 1. Approaches the standard Normal distribution as the degrees of freedom increases
  2. 3. The value of the point estimator from a sample
  3. 7. Measures how far a sample statistic diverges from what we would expect if the null hypothesis were true, in standardized units
  4. 10. Gives an interval of plausible values for a parameter
  5. 12. The alternative hypothesis is this if it states that the parameter is different from the null value
  6. 14. The estimated standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample statistic
  7. 15. The alternative hypothesis is this if it states that a parameter is larger than or smaller than the null value
  8. 17. A statistic that provides an estimate of a population parameter
  9. 18. If we reject the null hypothesis when it is true
  10. 20. A multiplier that makes the interval wide enough to have the stated capture rate
Down
  1. 2. n-1
  2. 4. The claim about the population that we are trying to find evidence for
  3. 5. If we fail to reject the null hypothesis when the alternative hypothesis is true
  4. 6. The difference between the point estimate and the true parameter value will be less than this in all samples
  5. 8. The claim we weigh evidence against in a statistical test; a statement of 'no difference'
  6. 9. A formal procedure for using observed data to decide between two competing claims
  7. 11. Gives the overall success rate of the method for calculating the confidence interval
  8. 13. The probability, assuming the null hypothesis is true, that the statistic would take a value as extreme or more extreme than the one actually observed
  9. 16. The result when the standard deviation of a statistic is estimated from data
  10. 19. The probability that the test will reject the null hypothesis at a chosen significance level when the specified alternative value of the parameter is true
