Example: To find 0.69, one would look down the rows to find 0.6 and then across the columns to 0.09 which would yield a probability of 0.25490 for a cumulative from mean table or 0.75490 from a cumulative table. To find a negative value such as -0.83, one could use a cumulative table for negative z-values [3] which yield a probability of 0.20327.
Z-test tests the mean of a distribution. For each significance level in the confidence interval, the Z-test has a single critical value (for example, 1.96 for 5% two tailed) which makes it more convenient than the Student's t-test whose critical values are defined by the sample size (through the corresponding degrees of freedom). Both the Z ...
So for temperatures above the critical temperature (126.2 K), there is no phase transition; as pressure increases the gas gradually transforms into something more like a liquid. Just above the critical point there is a range of pressure for which Z drops quite rapidly (see the 130 K curve), but at higher temperatures the process is entirely ...
Suppose the data can be realized from an N(0,1) distribution. For example, with a chosen significance level α = 0.05, from the Z-table, a one-tailed critical value of approximately 1.645 can be obtained. The one-tailed critical value C α ≈ 1.645 corresponds to the chosen significance level.
The statistical tables for t and for Z provide critical values for both one- and two-tailed tests. That is, they provide the critical values that cut off an entire region at one or the other end of the sampling distribution as well as the critical values that cut off the regions (of half the size) at both ends of the sampling distribution.
Critical value or threshold value can refer to: A quantitative threshold in medicine, chemistry and physics; Critical value (statistics), boundary of the acceptance region while testing a statistical hypothesis; Value of a function at a critical point (mathematics) Critical point (thermodynamics) of a statistical system.
The Z-factor defines a characteristic parameter of the capability of hit identification for each given assay. The following categorization of HTS assay quality by the value of the Z-Factor is a modification of Table 1 shown in Zhang et al. (1999); [2] note that the Z-factor cannot exceed one.
When only the equality of the two groups means is in question (i.e. whether μ 1 = μ 2), the studentized range distribution is similar to the Student's t distribution, differing only in that the first takes into account the number of means under consideration, and the critical value is adjusted accordingly. The more means under consideration ...
