This document provides an overview of statistical inferences and inferential statistics. It discusses key concepts like the null hypothesis, sampling error vs measurement error, and different types of statistical tests like t-tests, ANOVA, ANCOVA, and chi-square. It emphasizes the importance of sample size, reliability of measurement tools, and properly interpreting statistical significance and effect size when evaluating inferential analyses.
One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests allow you to determine if one given factor, such as drug treatment,
has a significant effect on gene expression behavior across any of the groups under study. A significant p-value
resulting from a 1-way ANOVA test would indicate that a gene is differentially expressed in at least one of the
groups analyzed. If there are more than two groups being analyzed, however, the 1-way ANOVA does not
specifically indicate which pair of groups exhibits statistical differences. Post Hoc tests can be applied in this
specific situation to determine which specific pair/pairs are differentially expressed. This document will provide
the necessary information for you to perform these analyses within GeneSpring.

It is very difficult to distinguish the differences between ANOVA and regression. This is because both terms have more similarities than differences. It can be said that ANOVA and regression are the two sides of the same coin.
Two-way ANOVA has many of the same ideas as one-way ANOVA, with the main difference being the inclusion of another factor (or explanatory variable) in our model.
In the two-way ANOVA model, there are two factors, each with its own number of levels. When we are interested in the effects of two factors, it is much more advantageous to perform a two-way analysis of variance, as opposed to two separate one-way ANOVAs.
The Mann Witney U Test in statistics is related to a testing without considering any assumption as to the parameters of frequently distributed of a valueless hypothesis. It is similar to the value selected randomly from one sample, can be higher than or lesser than a value selected randomly from a second sample.

Hypothesis Testing
Definitions:
A statistical hypothesis is a guess about a population parameter. The guess may or not be
true.
The null hypothesis, written H0, is a statistical hypothesis that states that there is no
difference between a parameter and a specific value, or that there is no difference between
two parameters.
The alternative hypothesis, written H1 or HA, is a statistical hypothesis that specifies a
specific difference between a parameter and a specific value, or that there is a difference
between two parameters.
Example 1:
A medical researcher is interested in finding out whether a new medication will have
undesirable side effects. She is particularly concerned with the pulse rate of patients who
take the medication. The research question is, will the pulse rate increase, decrease, or
remain the same after a patient takes the medication?
Since the researcher knows that the mean pulse rate for the population under study is 82
beats per minute, the hypotheses for this study are:
H0: µ = 82
HA: µ ≠ 82
The null hypothesis specifies that the mean will remain unchanged and the alternative
hypothesis states that it will be different. This test is called a two-tailed test since the
possible side effects could be to raise or lower the pulse rate. Notice that this is a non
directional hypothesis. The rejection region lies in both tails. We divide the alpha in two
and place half in each tail.
Example 2:
An entrepreneur invents an additive to increase the life of an automobile battery. If the
mean lifetime of the automobile battery is 36 months, then his hypotheses are:
H0: µ ≤ 36
HA: µ > 36
Here, the entrepreneur is only interested in increasing the lifetime of the batteries, so his
alternative hypothesis is that the mean is greater than 36 months. The null hypothesis is
that the mean is less than or equal to 36 months. This test is one-tailed since the interest
is only in an increased lifetime. Notice that the direction of the inequality in the alternate
hypothesis points to the right, same as the area of the curve that forms the rejection
region.
Example 3:
A landlord who wants to lower heating bills in a large apartment complex is considering
using a new type of insulation. If the current average of the monthly heating bills is $78,
his hypotheses about heating costs with the new insulation are:
H0: µ ≥ 78
HA: µ < 78
This test is also a one-tailed test since the landlord is interested only in lowering heating
costs. Notice that the direction of the inequality in the alternate hypothesis points to the
left, same as the area of the curve that forms the rejection region.
Study Design:
After stating the hypotheses, the researcher’s next step is to design the study. In designing
the study, the researcher selects an appropriate statistical test, chooses a level of
significance, and formulates a plan for conducting the study..

Quantitative Data Analysis: Statistics
Introduction
Understanding the use of basic statistical strategies is part of being a critical consumer of published research literature. Unless they plan to conduct research themselves, it is not as important for counselors to understand the mathematical calculations of the statistical techniques as it is to be able to recognize the names of the common ones and what kind of information they provide. There are several commercially-available software packages for analyzing quantitative data, one of which is described in detail in Chapter 14 of

Descriptive and Inferential Statistics
In quantitative studies, statistical techniques are used for data analysis. The two main categories of statistics are descriptive and inferential. Descriptive statistics are used to summarize the data. Some common descriptive statistics are the measures of central tendency: the mean, median, and mode. They provide information about where the middle is in distribution of scores. On the normal distribution, the mean, median, and mode are the same. Distributions are said to be skewed when extreme scores draw the mean away from the middle of the distribution. Measures of variability, such as the range, variance, and standard deviation, provide information about how widely a distribution of scores is dispersed (Erford, 2015, p. 250). The standard deviation is a measure of how the scores cluster around the mean. The greater the standard deviation, the greater the spread of scores.
Toggle DrawerHide Full Introduction
Inferential statistics are used to make inferences from the sample to the population. All inferential statistical procedures are based on probability theory. They are used to test hypotheses. Three commonly used inferential statistics are chi square, t-test, and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Chi square is used with nominal data to determine if the observed expected frequency differs significantly from the expected frequency. A t-test is used to determine whether there is a statistically significant difference between the means of two groups. ANOVA is used to determine whether there is a statistically significant difference between the means of three or more groups.
Statistical Significance
When a quantitative study tests a hypothesis, it is technically the null hypothesis being tested. The null hypothesis says there is no difference between the groups, or relationship between the variables (depending on the research design). If the statistical procedure indicates there is statistical significance, the null hypothesis is rejected, meaning that the probability is high that there really is a group difference or strong relationship between the variables.
Rejecting the null hypothesis is not equivalent to proving the research or alternative hypothesis. Researchers can embrace the research hypothesis as one plausible explanation, but because only .

What is sampling?
Sampling is the act, process, or technique of selecting a suitable sample, or a representative part of a population for the purpose of determining parameters or characteristics of the whole population.
Characteristics of a good sample
-True representative
-Free from bias
-Accurate
-Comprehensive
-Approachable
-Good size
-Feasible
-Goal orientation
-Practical and economical
Sampling Error
A sampling error is a statistical error that occurs when an analyst does not select a sample that represents the entire population of data and the results found in the sample do not represent the results that would be obtained from the entire population.
and many more things about the sampling technique.
This presentation will address the issue of sample size determination for social sciences. A simple example is provided for every to understand and explain the sample size determination.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
