  2. Student's t-distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student's_t-distribution

    Let's say we have a sample with size 11, sample mean 10, and sample variance 2. For 90% confidence with 10 degrees of freedom, the one-sided t value from the table is 1.372 . Then with confidence interval calculated from

  3. Student's t-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student's_t-test

    Most two-sample t-tests are robust to all but large deviations from the assumptions. [22] For exactness, the t-test and Z-test require normality of the sample means, and the t-test additionally requires that the sample variance follows a scaled χ 2 distribution, and that the sample mean and sample variance be statistically independent ...

  4. Sample size determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

    The table shown on the right can be used in a two-sample t-test to estimate the sample sizes of an experimental group and a control group that are of equal size, that is, the total number of individuals in the trial is twice that of the number given, and the desired significance level is 0.05. [4] The parameters used are:

  5. Noncentral t-distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noncentral_t-distribution

    One-sided normal tolerance intervals have an exact solution in terms of the sample mean and sample variance based on the noncentral t-distribution. [8] This enables the calculation of a statistical interval within which, with some confidence level, a specified proportion of a sampled population falls.

  6. t-statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-statistic

    Most frequently, t statistics are used in Student's t-tests, a form of statistical hypothesis testing, and in the computation of certain confidence intervals. The key property of the t statistic is that it is a pivotal quantity – while defined in terms of the sample mean, its sampling distribution does not depend on the population parameters, and thus it can be used regardless of what these ...

  7. Statistical hypothesis test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_hypothesis_test

    Derive the distribution of the test statistic under the null hypothesis from the assumptions. In standard cases this will be a well-known result. For example, the test statistic might follow a Student's t distribution with known degrees of freedom, or a normal distribution with known mean and variance.

  8. Test statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_statistic

    the value of T can be compared with its expected value under the null hypothesis of 50, and since the sample size is large, a normal distribution can be used as an approximation to the sampling distribution either for T or for the revised test statistic T−50. Using one of these sampling distributions, it is possible to compute either a one ...

  9. Welch's t-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welch's_t-test

    In statistics, Welch's t-test, or unequal variances t-test, is a two-sample location test which is used to test the (null) hypothesis that two populations have equal means. It is named for its creator, Bernard Lewis Welch , and is an adaptation of Student's t -test , [ 1 ] and is more reliable when the two samples have unequal variances and ...
