1) The document describes methods for constructing confidence intervals for the difference between two population means. It provides formulas and examples for when the population variances are known, unknown but assumed equal, and unknown and not assumed equal. 2) It also describes how to construct a confidence interval for the mean difference between two dependent or matched pair samples. An example is given of estimating the difference in effectiveness of two drugs using a 99% confidence interval from data on cholesterol reductions in paired patients. 3) Key steps shown in examples include calculating sample means and variances, determining the test statistic and degrees of freedom, and reporting the confidence interval range.
