This measure of center is more resistant to outliers than the mean.
What is the median?
y-hat y
What is the residual?
This phrase is used to describe an observed effect so large that it would rarely occur by chance.
What is statistically significant?
This type of random variable requires a fixed number of trials.
What is a binomial random variable?
The type of significance test used for the mean of a single population when the standard deviation of the population is unknown.
What is a One-Sample T test?
To calculate, subtract the mean of the distribution from the observed x, then divide by the standard deviation.
What is the z-score (or standardized value)?
This rule helps to determine if data is normally distributed by checking the number of observations within each interval.
What is the 68-95-99.7 rule (Empirical Rule)?
The fraction of the variation in the response that is explained by the LSRL relating y to x.
What is the coefficient of determination (or
r^2
)?
Applying a logarithmic transformation to both variables causes this type of model to become linear.
What is a power model?
The three basic principles of experimental design.
What are control, randomize, and replicate?
The condition involving the population size that must be satisfied to use
sigma /sqrtn
of n as the standard deviation of a sampling distribution.
What is 'the population is at least 10 times the sample size'?
b+-t^astSE_b
b +/- t*SE sub b
What is the confidence interval for slope beta of a true regression line?
