Across
- 2. the probability that a statistic would take a value as extreme as or more extreme than the one actually observed
- 3. the z-score of a certain confidence level
- 4. tells how close the estimate tends to be to the unknown parameter in repeated random sampling
- 6. overall success rate of the method for calculating the confidence interval
- 11. if the p-value is less than alpha (α), it is _______at level α.
- 13. the claim tested by a statistical test
- 15. an alternative hypothesis that states is different from the null hypothesis value; could be larger or smaller
- 16. if we fail to reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false
- 18. if the mean of a sampling distribution is equal to the parameter being estimated, it is called a
- 19. α used to determine whether we should reject or fail to reject null hypothesis; most often set at 0.05 (5%)
Down
- 1. a number that describes a population
- 3. estimate ± margin of error
- 5. measures how far a sample statistic diverges from what we would expect if the null hypothesis were true
- 7. the claim about to the population that we are trying to find evidence for
- 8. the distribution of all values taken by a statistic in all possible samples of the same size from the same population
- 9. a number that describes a sample
- 10. when n is large (n ≥ 30), the sampling distribution of the sample mean will have a normal distribution
- 12. the standard deviation of a statistic
- 14. if we reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is true
- 17. measures the ability of the test to detect an alternative value of the parameter
