Step 1: Subtract the confidence level from 100% to find the α level: 100% – 90% = 10%. Step 2: Convert Step 1 to a decimal: 10% = 0.10. Step 3: Divide Step 2 by 2 (this is called “α/2”). 0.10 = 0.05. This is the area in each tail. Step 4: Subtract Step 3 from 1 (because we want the area in the middle, not the area in the tail): 1 – 0. ...
So the Confidence Level is about the accuracy of rejection, not adoption. So if we raise confidence level from 95% to 99%, the rejection area becomes smaller. And if the test result is in the rejection area though, we can more confidently reject the null hypothesis. It can be more reliable than rejection from 95% confidence level, because 95% ...
8. 95% 95 % is just the conventionally accepted boundary for "reasonably certain" in general cases. It has nothing to do with any specific formulas, and is rather an arbitrary choice that statisticians have agreed is a good compromise between getting results at all and getting results we can trust.

It's not surprising you're a bit confused; understanding what's really going on with confidence intervals can be tricky. The short version: If you don't want to check all the files you have to choose two different percentages: the confidence level (95% in your example), and how far off you're willing to be at that level (20% in your example).

When I calculate the 95% confidence interval using my sample mean (131.05), can I use that interval to reject the null hypothesis or to not reject the null hypothesis that the difference between the population mean and sample distribution mean is 0 (or that there is not a difference between the two means?
Calculate and interpret a CI at confidence level 95% for the difference between population mean height of the younger women and that for the older women. Does the above question use the following formula to get the correct answer? p1 − p2 −+ z s12 n1 + s22 n2− −−−−−−√ p 1 − p 2 − + z s 1 2 n 1 + s 2 2 n 2. where:
n = (zα/2σ E)2 n = (z α / 2 σ E) 2. with zα/2 = 1.96 z α / 2 = 1.96 for a 95% 95 % confidence interval and E = 2.5 E = 2.5 is your margin of error? If you think that the question has given you the sample variance (s2 = 25 s 2 = 25), then we can estimate the population variance (σ2 σ 2) using: σ2 = n0 n0 − 1s2 σ 2 = n 0 n 0 − 1 s 2.
Define the term 'asymptotic and exact confidence interval' for the niveau $1-\alpha>0$. Give a $95\%$ confidence interval for the probability that the thumb will land point up. I do have the formal definitions of the asymptotic and exact confidence interval, but I don't really understand it.
It doesn't really make sense to me so if someone could explain I would really appreciate it. Another stackexchange post points out that, "if p = 0 𝑝 = 0 and n> 30 𝑛> 30, the 95% confidence interval is approximately [0, 3/n] [0, 3 / 𝑛] (Javanovic and Levy, 1997); the opposite holds for p = 1 𝑝 = 1 ".
