    Ngl, that first question was hard for me. I had to attentively watch the solution to get a solid understanding of the concept. But then the second question became a breeze for me once I familiarized myself with the underlying statistical ideas. Feel much more confident about my knowledge of Hypothesis Testing now.

    Thanks for the great lecture. I'm new to statistics, I have a question regarding the test statistic used in this video. is the formula used in this video generalized test statistic or any specific test statistic ? I have read about Z-test , T-test given mean and standard deviation, sample size of population and sample.
    is power calculation applicable for only when proportion values are given ? It's little confusing for me.

    Although, I still get stuck on the 2-tail test being more stringent than the 1-tail test - so it is harder to show that the mean is not what we think that it is than it is to show that the mean is larger than we think it is... ??? It will take a while to get used to.

    @gamebm Před 11 měsíci +1

    17:27 For both cases, to evaluate the variance of p Var(p)=Var(N)/N_t^2, one needs the variance of N, Var(N), the latter can be evaluated using E(N)=p(d/dp)(p+q)^Nt and E(N(N-1))=d^2(d^2/dp^2)(p+q)^Nt, where q=1-p, and p=p_0 or p_1 and Nt is the number of total samples, such as n_0 and n_1. I kinda think the derivation is omitted in the video (is there a more straightforward way to see it?) so write it down here a side note.

    As always, amazing it is.
    On the first example, while standardizing the normal distributions, the test statistic which was used was "T". Why isn't it Z statistic? (I'm just a beginner here, sorry for the question)

    • @JohnSmith-ok9sn
      @JohnSmith-ok9sn Před 4 lety +6

      Sample size was large enough for a z-statistic to be used, instead of the t-statistic.
      T-statistic is for very small samples/observations.
      Z-statistic is for large samples/observations.
      (*Usually, more than 30 observations - use the Z-statistic; less than that - T-statistic. )

I then calculated how much of the H1 curve was to the left of 0.58154 (mean 0.1, sd 0.035) and subtracted it from 1. I did it this way so I would understand where 2.8284 had come from.

How to draw the hyposethis curves when the event outcome is more than binary, say three or more possibile outcome?

      p0 is the probability of the positive outcome of the operated group, it is actually a **Bernoulli** distribution with the outcome being YES (with probability p0) or NO (1-p0). The variance of Bernoulli distributions is p*(1-p), and because it is a **sampled** distribution, the variance needs to be divided by n.

    • @stevey7997
      @stevey7997 Před 8 měsíci

      I wondered that as well at first. But I think the reason is that here we care about the standard error of an estimator for which we already calculated the variance, which includes the number of observations. The formula you are referring to is the standard error for a mean estimator where you only know the variance (or standard deviation for that matter) of a sample, not the estimator. I hope what I'm saying is clear and I also hope the reasoning I came up with is correct...

  • @sdsa007
    @sdsa007 Před rokem

    @13.58... I'm doing a retrospective on our experimental design choices....... we got a result on one side.... why did we get a t-statistic on the right-side? because we set out parameter estimate as p1-p0... if we set our parameter estimate as p0-p1 we would have got the t-statistic on the other side of the tail-end.... More importantly, It occurred to me that p1 and p0 are defined as positive outcomes (asking is there a sig difference in one therapy having more positive-outcome than the other?), but if we did negative outcomes instead (asking is there a sig difference in one therapy having more negative-outcome than the other?), I suspect we would still be able to reject the null hypothesis, but we would be working with a different normal distribution and then depending on how we setup our parameter estimate we would get a t-statistic on one end or the other.... BUT both questions should lead to the same conclusion.... self-consistent with each other... I don't know if its worth doing twice the work... but it might give confidence that the therapies have normal distribution.... which would reinforce the self-consistency, thus the validity of the test.

    at 6:51, isn't the true probability should be close to 0.08? cause the y axis is probability.

    Nice Video!!! But from 59:22 here, I am starting to confusing...

    Was it coincidence that the critical value was 1.96 and rejection was at 1.99 a difference of 0.03 and alpha 0.05 was p value 0.047?

    I understood what you were saying until the test statistic formula.

    21:00 I may say 0.05 is 5% that is the two-sigma limitation, a lot of standards use two-sigma limitation.

    example is really tough for beginners...try choosing a simple example instead of a complex one....

    So statistic is basically BS because somebody just decide to choose 0.05

    • @navjotsingh2251
      @navjotsingh2251 Před rokem

      Well, ideally the value is whatever you want it to be. It just happens to be good practice to choose 0.005. Nothing says it can’t be different. I think a p value of 0.005 works well in most cases so it just became accepted as a standard.

    Princess Diana is upset today, because you didn't remind people about Welch's t-test?! I think it's fair to remind people at an introductory level, that there are different tests that use the same distribution.... just because the 'Student t-test' has a lot t's in it, it is not the only test that accompanies the t-distribution... I discovered today...

    • @sdsa007
      @sdsa007 Před rokem

      Jargon Followup: with regard to Welch test vs Student test what are the associated distributions; are they the same or different? is just the test different, but they use the same distribution for scoring? Lets step back: what is the difference between 'test', and the "score"... the test is the equation that produces a score, and the "score/value/statistic" is the point on an x-axis on a histogramic distribution. In most/all cases the distribution is related to the test via its letter... ex t-test is to t-distribution what z-test is to z-distribution.... this means both the welch t-test and the student t-test use the same t-distribution to determine a t-score/t-value/t-statistic...

    • @sdsa007
      @sdsa007 Před rokem

      Actually, I think I got information overload... we are actually not using a t-distribution, we are using a normal distribution... but I am confusing the terminology of 't-statistic' with the terminology of 'test-statistic', the later being a more general term for the results of any test regardless of distribution... (ie a t-statistic is a test-statistic associated with a t-test and a t-distribution).

    • @sdsa007
      @sdsa007 Před rokem

      Oh wow! another interesting jargon-fact: the Standard Normal Distribution N(0,1) is also called the z-distribution, so we are doing a z-test, I presume... but you tried to shield us from all the horrible jargon! I better understand and appreciate your pedagogy in this cruel world! Mr Zedstatistics in deed!
