  2. Z-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-test

    Difference between Z-test and t-test: Z-test is used when sample size is large (n>50), or the population variance is known. t-test is used when sample size is small (n<50) and population variance is unknown. There is no universal constant at which the sample size is generally considered large enough to justify use of the plug-in test. Typical ...

  3. Sample size determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

    As the sample size n grows sufficiently large, the distribution of ^ will be closely approximated by a normal distribution. [1] Using this and the Wald method for the binomial distribution , yields a confidence interval, with Z representing the standard Z-score for the desired confidence level (e.g., 1.96 for a 95% confidence interval), in the ...

  4. Asymptotic theory (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic_theory_(statistics)

    In statistics, asymptotic theory, or large sample theory, is a framework for assessing properties of estimators and statistical tests. Within this framework, it is often assumed that the sample size n may grow indefinitely; the properties of estimators and tests are then evaluated under the limit of n → ∞. In practice, a limit evaluation is ...

  5. Binomial test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_test

    A binomial test is a statistical hypothesis test used to determine whether the proportion of successes in a sample differs from an expected proportion in a binomial distribution. It is useful for situations when there are two possible outcomes (e.g., success/failure, yes/no, heads/tails), i.e., where repeated experiments produce binary data .

  6. List of statistical tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statistical_tests

    Normality test: sample size between 3 and 5000 [16] Kolmogorov–Smirnov test: interval: 1: Normality test: distribution parameters known [16] Shapiro-Francia test ...

  7. Z-factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-factor

    The Z-factor is a measure of statistical effect size. It has been proposed for use in high-throughput screening (HTS), where it is also known as Z-prime, [ 1 ] to judge whether the response in a particular assay is large enough to warrant further attention.

  8. Bootstrapping (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(statistics)

    The bootstrap sample is taken from the original by using sampling with replacement (e.g. we might 'resample' 5 times from [1,2,3,4,5] and get [2,5,4,4,1]), so, assuming N is sufficiently large, for all practical purposes there is virtually zero probability that it will be identical to the original "real" sample. This process is repeated a large ...

  9. Effect size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_size

    This means that for a given effect size, the significance level increases with the sample size. Unlike the t-test statistic, the effect size aims to estimate a population parameter and is not affected by the sample size. SMD values of 0.2 to 0.5 are considered small, 0.5 to 0.8 are considered medium, and greater than 0.8 are considered large. [23]
