  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.

  3. Z-factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-factor

    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.

  4. Standard score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_score

    Comparison of the various grading methods in a normal distribution, including: standard deviations, cumulative percentages, percentile equivalents, z-scores, T-scores. In statistics, the standard score is the number of standard deviations by which the value of a raw score (i.e., an observed value or data point) is above or below the mean value of what is being observed or measured.

  5. Sample size determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

    For B = 10% one requires n = 100, for B = 5% one needs n = 400, for B = 3% the requirement approximates to n = 1000, while for B = 1% a sample size of n = 10000 is required. These numbers are quoted often in news reports of opinion polls and other sample surveys. However, the results reported may not be the exact value as numbers are preferably ...

  6. Test statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_statistic

    Test statistic is a quantity derived from the sample for statistical hypothesis testing. [1] A hypothesis test is typically specified in terms of a test statistic, considered as a numerical summary of a data-set that reduces the data to one value that can be used to perform the hypothesis test.

  7. 68–95–99.7 rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/68–95–99.7_rule

    For an approximately normal data set, the values within one standard deviation of the mean account for about 68% of the set; while within two standard deviations account for about 95%; and within three standard deviations account for about 99.7%.

  8. Paired difference test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paired_difference_test

    Suppose we are using a Z-test to analyze the data, where the variances of the pre-treatment and post-treatment data σ 1 2 and σ 2 2 are known (the situation with a t-test is similar). The unpaired Z-test statistic is ¯ ¯ / + /, The power of the unpaired, one-sided test carried out at level α = 0.05 can be calculated as follows:

  9. Fisher's exact test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher's_exact_test

    Fisher's exact test is a statistical significance test used in the analysis of contingency tables. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Although in practice it is employed when sample sizes are small, it is valid for all sample sizes.
