200

Events that do not affect the probability of a given outcome are...

Independent

200

Standard deviation is the square root of...

Variance

200

Which two tests have the same formula for degrees of freedom

Homogeneity and Independence: (#rows-1)(#columns-1)

300

What is the formula for multiple outcomes occurring that are Not Mutually Exclusive

Chi square tests allow us to measure the extent to which the observed counts differ from the _____ counts

Expected

300

When running a Chi-Squared test, what three things must you report

Test Statistic, Degrees of Freedom, P-Value

400

What is the formula for the expected value of a discrete random variable

E(x) = Σ[(x)(px)]

400

What is conditional probability

The probability that an outcome will occur, given that a previous outcome has occurred

400

For continuous random variables, what is the probability of getting exactly one given outcome?

0

400

What two graphs are often used to represent categorical data

Bar graph, Mosaic Plot

400

How do you phrase the alternative hypothesis for a Goodness of Fit Chi-Squared Test

At least one of these proportions is not as specified in the null hypothesis

500

Formula to calculate the spread (st. dev.) of a discrete random variable by hand

√Σ[(xix)2p(xi)]

500

What is the Law of Large Numbers?

Over a very large number of trials, the proportion of trials that result in the desired outcome will approach the value of the outcome's theoretical probability

500

If you subtract several distributions of a random variable, the spread...

Increases

500

What does the horizontal axis of a mosaic plot represent

The width of the bars shows the proportion of the population that is taken up by each sub-group

500

How do you phrase the null hypothesis differently for tests of Homogeneity vs. Independence

Homogeneity is the difference between distributions of a variable across populations, while independence is the association between variables within a population
