Study Notes
Descriptive Statistics
- Median is a measure of central tendency that separates the upper half from the lower half of the data.
Quartiles
- Q₁ (First Quartile or Lower Quartile) is the median of the lower half of the data.
- Q₃ (Third Quartile or Upper Quartile) is the median of the upper half of the data.
Measures of Dispersion
- Standard deviation is a measure of dispersion that indicates how much the data deviates from the mean.
Probability
- A Venn diagram is a visual representation of events and their probabilities.
- Probability of an event is the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes.
Hypothesis Testing
- A hypothesis is a statement about a population parameter.
- A statistical test is used to test a hypothesis.
Distribution Fitting
- The type of distribution to fit to the data depends on the characteristics of the data.
Skewness
- Karl Pearson's measure of skewness is a quantitative measure of skewness in a distribution.
Hypothesis Testing
- The purpose of hypothesis testing is to make a decision about a population parameter based on a sample of data.
- There are two types of hypotheses: null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis.
Types of Tests
- One-tailed tests are used when the alternative hypothesis specifies a direction of difference.
- Two-tailed tests are used when the alternative hypothesis does not specify a direction of difference.
Moments
- Raw moments are summations of powers of values in a distribution.
- Central moments are summations of powers of deviations from the mean in a distribution.
