  2. Chi-squared distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi-squared_distribution

    It enters all analysis of variance problems via its role in the F-distribution, which is the distribution of the ratio of two independent chi-squared random variables, each divided by their respective degrees of freedom. Following are some of the most common situations in which the chi-squared distribution arises from a Gaussian-distributed sample.

  3. p-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-value

    The p-value was first formally introduced by Karl Pearson, in his Pearson's chi-squared test, [39] using the chi-squared distribution and notated as capital P. [39] The p-values for the chi-squared distribution (for various values of χ 2 and degrees of freedom), now notated as P, were calculated in (Elderton 1902), collected in (Pearson 1914 ...

  4. Binomial test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_test

    If we have a significance level of 5%, then this result (0.02654 < 5%) indicates that we have evidence that is significant enough to reject the null hypothesis that the die is fair. Normally, when we are testing for fairness of a die, we are also interested if the die is biased towards generating fewer 6s than expected, and not only more 6s as ...

  5. Effect size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_size

    The effect size can be computed by noting that the odds of passing in the treatment group are three times higher than in the control group (because 6 divided by 2 is 3). Therefore, the odds ratio is 3. Odds ratio statistics are on a different scale than Cohen's d, so this '3' is not comparable to a Cohen's d of 3.

  6. Standard normal table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_normal_table

    gives a probability that a statistic is greater than Z. This equates to the area of the distribution above Z. Example: Find Prob(Z ≥ 0.69). Since this is the portion of the area above Z, the proportion that is greater than Z is found by subtracting Z from 1.

  7. Odds ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odds_ratio

    Thus, when the probability of X occurring in group B is greater than the probability of X occurring in group A, the odds ratio is greater than 1, and the log odds ratio is greater than 0. Suppose that in a sample of 100 men, 90 drank wine in the previous week (so 10 did not), while in a sample of 80 women only 20 drank wine in the same period ...

  8. Pearson correlation coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearson_correlation...

    Pearson's correlation coefficient is the covariance of the two variables divided by the product of their standard deviations. The form of the definition involves a "product moment", that is, the mean (the first moment about the origin) of the product of the mean-adjusted random variables; hence the modifier product-moment in the name.

  9. Repeating decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal

    The repeating sequence of digits is called "repetend" which has a certain length greater than 0, also called "period". [5] In base 10, a fraction has a repeating decimal if and only if in lowest terms, its denominator has any prime factors besides 2 or 5, or in other words, cannot be expressed as 2 m 5 n, where m and n are non-negative integers.
