What is a one sample t-test?

A one-sample t-test is a statistical hypothesis test used to determine whether the mean of a sample is statistically different from a hypothesized value. It's a common test used in various fields when you only have data from a single group.

What do you use a one sample t-test for?

Here are some common applications of a one-sample t-test:

What is the difference between sampling error and sampling bias?

Both sampling error and sampling bias are important concepts in statistics, but they represent distinct phenomena that can affect the accuracy and generalizability of research findings. Here's a breakdown to clarify the key differences:

What is sampling bias?

In the realm of statistics, sampling bias refers to a systematic distortion that occurs when a sample does not fairly represent the entire population it is drawn from. This distortion can lead to misleading conclusions about the population if left unaddressed.

Here's a breakdown of the key points about sampling bias:

  • Misrepresentation: Unlike sampling

What is a boxplot?

A boxplot, also known as a box and whisker plot, is a graphical representation of the five-number summary of a dataset. It helps visualize the distribution, spread, and potential outliers of the data in a concise way.

Here are the key elements of a boxplot:

  • Box: Represents the interquartile range (IQR), which encompasses the middle 50% of the data. The

What is a p-value?

A p-value, short for probability value, is a statistical measurement used in hypothesis testing. It tells you the probability of observing the results you obtained in your study, assuming the null hypothesis is true.

The null hypothesis, typically denoted by H₀, represents the default assumption that there is no effect or difference between the groups being compared.

Here's a

What is a histogram?

A histogram is a graphical representation of the frequency distribution of data. It is a type of bar chart, but with a few important differences:

  • Continuous data: Histograms are used for continuous data, such as height, weight, or temperature. This means that the data can theoretically have any value within a certain range, unlike discrete data (e.g., number of students

What is content validity?

Content validity assesses the degree to which the content of a test, measure, or instrument actually represents the specific construct it aims to measure. In simpler terms, it asks: "Does this test truly capture the relevant aspects of what it's supposed to assess?"

Here's a breakdown of key points about content validity:

  • Focuses on

What is dimensionality and what is factor analysis? - Chapter 4

When we measure a physical or psychological trait of an object or person, we only measure one trait of object or person. However, you can investigate multiple questions/items that ultimately lead to a certain dimension/trait. These are called composite scores. In this chapter, the concept of dimensi...

How to empirically estimate the reliability? - Chapter 6

Test scores can be used to estimate reliability scores and to estimate the measurement error. In this chapter three methods are discussed for estimating reliability: (1) alternate forms of reliability (also known as a parallel test); (2) test-retest reliability; (3) internal consistency. This c...
