What is the general form for a confidence interval?

Point estimate ± (Critical value) * (Standard error)

What is the formula for degrees of freedom in a linear regression t-test?

df = n - 2, where n is the sample size.

What is the formula for the test statistic in a one-sample t-test?

t=xˉ−μ0s/nt = \frac{\bar{x} - \mu_0}{s/\sqrt{n}}t=s/n​xˉ−μ0​​

What is the formula for the test statistic in a one-proportion z-test?

z=p^−p0p0(1−p0)nz = \frac{\hat{p} - p_0}{\sqrt{\frac{p_0(1-p_0)}{n}}}z=np0​(1−p0​)​​p^​−p0​​

What is the formula for the test statistic in a Chi-Square Test?

χ2=∑(Observed−Expected)2Expected\chi^2 = \sum \frac{(Observed - Expected)^2}{Expected}χ2=∑Expected(Observed−Expected)2​

What are the differences between a 'One Sample T-Test' and a 'Two Sample T-Test'?

One Sample T-Test: Compares the mean of a single sample to a known value. | Two Sample T-Test: Compares the means of two independent samples to determine if there is a significant difference.

What are the differences between 'Chi-Square Test for Independence' and 'Chi-Square Test for Homogeneity'?

Chi-Square Test for Independence: Tests for association between two categorical variables within a single population. | Chi-Square Test for Homogeneity: Tests if the distribution of a categorical variable is the same across multiple populations.

What are the differences between a 'One Proportion Z-Test' and a 'Two Proportion Z-Test'?

One Proportion Z-Test: Tests a claim about a single population proportion. | Two Proportion Z-Test: Compares the proportions of two independent populations.

What are the differences between 'T-tests' and 'Z-tests'?

T-tests: Used when the population standard deviation is unknown and estimated from the sample. | Z-tests: Used when the population standard deviation is known.

What are the differences between 'Confidence Interval' and 'Hypothesis Test'?

Confidence Interval: Estimates a population parameter with a range of plausible values. | Hypothesis Test: Assesses evidence against a specific claim about a population parameter.

Define 'One Proportion Z-Test'.

A statistical test used to test a claim about a single population proportion.

Define 'One Sample T-Test'.

A statistical test used to test a claim about a single population mean when the population standard deviation is unknown.

Define 'Chi-Square Test for Independence'.

A statistical test used to determine if there is a significant association between two categorical variables.

Define 'Linear Regression T-Test'.

A statistical test used to determine if there is a significant linear relationship between two quantitative variables.

Define 'P-value'.

The probability of observing a test statistic as extreme as, or more extreme than, the one computed, assuming the null hypothesis is true.
