The document discusses the chi-square test, which offers an alternative method for testing the significance of differences between two proportions. It was developed by Karl Pearson and follows a specific chi-square distribution. To calculate chi-square, contingency tables are made noting observed and expected frequencies, and the chi-square value is calculated using the formula. Degrees of freedom are also calculated. Chi-square test is commonly used to test proportions, associations between events, and goodness of fit to a theory. However, it has limitations when expected values are less than 5 and does not measure strength of association or indicate causation.
This document provides an overview of analysis of variance (ANOVA). It begins by defining parametric tests and discussing the assumptions of ANOVA.

- It can be used for goodness of fit tests, tests of homogeneity of proportions, and tests of independence between categorical variables. Examples of applications in cohort studies, case-control studies, and matched case-control studies are provided.
Brm (one tailed and two tailed hypothesis)Upama Dwivedi
This document discusses one-tailed and two-tailed hypothesis tests. It defines a hypothesis as an assumption made about the probable results of research. The null hypothesis assumes a parameter takes a certain value, while the alternative hypothesis expresses how the parameter may deviate. A one-tailed test examines if a parameter falls on one side of the distribution, while a two-tailed test looks at both sides. Two-tailed tests are more conservative since they require more extreme test statistics to reject the null hypothesis. Examples are provided to illustrate the difference between one-tailed and two-tailed tests.
ANOVA (analysis of variance) is used to determine if different treatment groups differ significantly on some measure. It compares the variance between groups to the variance within groups. If the between-group variance is large relative to the within-group variance, it suggests the treatment had an effect. The analysis calculates an F-ratio, with larger values indicating it is less likely the groups differ due to chance. Researchers use statistical tables to determine the probability (p-value) that the F-ratio occurred by chance if there was actually no effect.
This document discusses repeated measures ANOVA. It explains that repeated measures ANOVA is used when the same participants are measured under different treatment conditions. This allows researchers to remove variability caused by individual differences. The document outlines the components of the repeated measures ANOVA F-ratio, including the numerator which is the variance between treatments and the denominator which is the variance due to chance/error after removing individual differences. It also discusses how to conduct hypothesis testing and calculate effect size for repeated measures ANOVA.
This document provides an overview of analysis of variance (ANOVA) techniques, including one-way and two-way ANOVA. It defines key terms like factors, interactions, F distribution, and multiple comparison tests. For one-way ANOVA, it explains how to test if three or more population means are equal. For two-way ANOVA, it notes you must first test for interactions between two factors before testing their individual effects. The Tukey test is introduced for identifying specifically which group means differ following rejection of a one-way ANOVA null hypothesis.
The document provides information about the Chi-square test, including:
- It is a non-parametric test used to evaluate categorical data using contingency tables. The test statistic follows a Chi-square distribution.
- It can test for independence between variables and goodness of fit to theoretical distributions.
- Key steps involve calculating expected frequencies, taking the difference between observed and expected, and summing the results.
- The test interprets higher Chi-square values as less likelihood the results are due to chance. Modifications like Yates' correction and Fisher's exact test address limitations for small sample sizes.
The document discusses testing for independence between two variables using a contingency table and chi-square test. It explains how to set up a contingency table with observed and expected frequencies, and how to calculate the chi-square test statistic to determine if the variables are independent or dependent. An example is provided that tests if blood pressure is independent of jogging status using a contingency table and chi-square test.
ANOVA (analysis of variance) and mean differentiation tests are statistical methods used to compare means or medians of multiple groups. ANOVA compares three or more means to test for statistical significance and is similar to multiple t-tests but with less type I error. It requires continuous dependent variables and categorical independent variables. There are different types of ANOVA including one-way, factorial, repeated measures, and multivariate ANOVA. Key assumptions of ANOVA include normality, homogeneity of variance, and independence of observations. The F-test statistic follows an F-distribution and is used to evaluate the null hypothesis that population means are equal.

A mixed between-within subjects ANOVA was conducted to examine the impact of different instruction methods (lecture, slides, instruction with student presentation, pair work) on linguistics test scores over two time periods (pretest and posttest) among 32 students randomly assigned to four groups. There was a significant interaction between time and instruction method, and time had a significant main effect. The different instruction methods also had a significant main effect on test scores. Post hoc tests revealed significant differences in scores between the lecture and student presentation groups, and the student presentation and pair work groups.
This document provides an overview of Bayesian inference:
- Bayesian inference uses Bayes' theorem to update probabilities of hypotheses as new evidence becomes available. It is widely used in science, engineering, medicine and other fields.
- Bayes' theorem calculates the posterior probability (probability after seeing evidence) based on the prior probability (initial probability) and the likelihood function (probability of evidence under the hypothesis).
- Common applications of Bayesian inference include artificial intelligence, expert systems, bioinformatics, and more. Advantages include incorporating prior information to improve predictions, while disadvantages include potential issues if prior information is incorrect.
The document discusses analysis of variance (ANOVA), which partitions total sum of squares into components due to factors and error. There are two types of ANOVA: one-way and two-way. Two-way ANOVA compares mean differences between groups split across two independent variables and determines if there is an interaction between the variables on the dependent variable. An example tests if gender and education level interact to influence text anxiety.

Factors that can influence a hypothesis test like effect size, sample size, and alpha level are also covered.
- A Latin square design is an experimental design that allows for control of two sources of blocking. It requires t^2 experimental units for t treatments.
- The design involves arranging treatments in a square table such that each treatment occurs once in each row and column, controlling for both row and column effects.
- Latin square designs are useful when there are two sources of variability perpendicular to each other, like fertility gradients, insect migration patterns, or temperature/light differences in greenhouse experiments.
- The analysis of a Latin square is similar to a randomized block design but with one additional source of variation accounted for in the model.

Post-hoc tests like Tukey and Fisher's LSD are described for determining specific mean differences.
Assessment 4 ContextRecall that null hypothesis tests are of.docxgalerussel59292
Assessment 4 Context
Recall that null hypothesis tests are of two types: (1) differences between group means and (2) association between variables. In both cases there is a null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis. In the group means test, the null hypothesis is that the two groups have equal means, and the alternative hypothesis is that the two groups do not have equal means. In the association between variables type of test, the null hypothesis is that the correlation coefficient between the two variables is zero, and the alternative hypothesis is that the correlation coefficient is not zero.
Notice in each case that the hypotheses are mutually exclusive. If the null is false, the alternative must be true. The purpose of null hypothesis statistical tests is generally to show that the null has a low probability of being true (the p value is less than .05) – low enough that the researcher can legitimately claim it is false. The reason this is done is to support the allegation that the alternative hypothesis is true.
In this context you will be studying the details of the first type of test again, with the added capability of comparing the means among more than two group at a time. This is the same type of test of difference between group means. In variations on this model, the groups can actually be the same people under different conditions. The main idea is that several group mean values are being compared. The groups each have an average score or mean on some variable. The null hypothesis is that the difference between all the group means is zero. The alternative hypothesis is that the difference between the means is not zero. Notice that if the null is false, the alternative must be true. It is first instructive to consider some of the details of groups.
One might ask why we would not use multiple t tests in this situation. For instance, with three groups, why would I not compare groups one and two with a t test, then compare groups one and three, and then compare groups two and three?
The answer can be found in our basic probability review. We are concerned with the probability of a TYPE I error (rejecting a true null hypothesis). We generally set an alpha level of .05, which is the probability of making a TYPE I error. Now consider what happens when we do three t tests. There is .05 probability of making a TYPE I error on the first test, .05 probability of the same error on the second test, and .05 probability on the third test. What happens is that these errors are essentially additive, in that the chances of at least one TYPE I error among the three tests much greater than .05. It is like the increased probability of drawing an ace from a deck of cards when we can make multiple draws.
ANOVA allows us do an "overall" test of multiple groups to determine if there are any differences among groups within the set. Notice that ANOVA does not tell us which groups among the three groups are different from each other. The primary test.

This document discusses hypothesis testing for correlation between two continuous variables. It defines correlation, outlines the steps for a hypothesis test comparing correlation to zero, and provides the technical details of calculating Pearson's correlation coefficient. A key point is that the distribution of the test statistic is t-distributed, allowing assessment of statistical significance through the p-value. The goal of the example analysis is to determine if there is a linear relationship between IL-10 and IL-6 expression levels in patients.

Testing of Hypothesis, p-value, Gaussian distribution, null hypothesissvmmcradonco1
This document provides an overview of key concepts in statistical hypothesis testing. It defines what a hypothesis is, the different types of hypotheses (null, alternative, one-tailed, two-tailed), and statistical terms used in hypothesis testing like test statistics, critical regions, significance levels, critical values, type I and type II errors. It also explains the decision making process in hypothesis testing, such as rejecting or failing to reject the null hypothesis based on whether the test statistic falls within the critical region or if the p-value is less than the significance level.
This document provides an overview of analysis of variance (ANOVA). It defines ANOVA as a statistical method used to analyze differences between two or more means. The document outlines the key terminology used in ANOVA such as grand mean, sample mean, null and alternative hypotheses, between and within group variability, F-test, F-critical value, and F-ratio. It also describes how ANOVA compares total variance between samples to variance within samples and uses the F-ratio to determine if means are significantly different based on the F-critical value. Examples of medical treatments are provided to illustrate how ANOVA can be used to determine if treatments are equally effective.
1) Three groups were given different techniques to lower blood pressure and their reductions were recorded.
2) A one-way ANOVA test was conducted to determine if there were differences in the mean reductions among the three groups.
3) The calculated F statistic (9.17) was greater than the critical value (3.8853), so the null hypothesis that the means were equal was rejected. Therefore, there was sufficient evidence that at least one group's mean reduction was different from the others.
In this document, I have tried to illustrate most of the hypothesis testing like 1 sample,2 samples, etc, which I have covered to analyze the machine learning algorithms. I have focused on Independent statistical testing.
Now the question is why we use statistical testing? the answer is that we use statistical testing for significance analysis of our results, which I am going to deliver
This document defines hypothesis testing and describes the basic concepts and procedures involved. It explains that a hypothesis is a tentative explanation of the relationship between two variables. The null hypothesis is the initial assumption that is tested, while the alternative hypothesis is what would be accepted if the null hypothesis is rejected. Key steps in hypothesis testing are defining the null and alternative hypotheses, selecting a significance level, determining the appropriate statistical distribution, collecting sample data, calculating the probability of the results, and comparing this to the significance level to determine whether to accept or reject the null hypothesis. Types I and II errors in hypothesis testing are also defined.
This document provides an overview of common statistical tests used in evidence-based dentistry including descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, chi-square tests, and examples of hypotheses for each. It discusses how t-tests can compare means of two groups, ANOVA compares means of three or more groups, and chi-square tests association between categorical variables. Examples illustrate hypotheses for comparing groups and testing for associations between variables.
The document discusses parametric hypothesis testing concepts like directional vs non-directional hypotheses, p-values, critical values, and types of parametric tests including t-tests, ANOVA, and when each should be used. It provides examples of one-way and two-way ANOVA, describing how one-way ANOVA is used when groups differ on one factor and two-way is used when groups differ on two or more factors. Key assumptions for parametric tests like normality and sample size are also outlined.
The document discusses testing of hypotheses. It defines a hypothesis as a tentative prediction about the relationship between variables. Good hypotheses are precise, testable, and consistent with known facts. Hypothesis testing involves formulating a null hypothesis (Ho) and an alternative hypothesis (H1). A significance level such as 5% is chosen. If the test statistic falls within the critical region, Ho is rejected. Type I error rejects a true Ho, while Type II error accepts a false Ho. Power refers to correctly rejecting a false Ho. The testing process determines test statistics, critical regions, and interprets results to draw conclusions.
This document provides an overview of key statistical analysis techniques used in research methods, including descriptive statistics, validity testing, reliability testing, hypothesis testing, and techniques for comparing means such as t-tests and ANOVA. Descriptive statistics like mean and standard deviation are used to summarize variables measured on interval/ratio scales, while frequency and percentage summarize nominal/ordinal scales. Validity is assessed through exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to establish underlying dimensions. Reliability is measured using Cronbach's alpha. Hypothesis testing involves stating null and alternative hypotheses and making decisions based on statistical tests and p-values. T-tests compare two means and ANOVA compares three or more means, both assuming equal variances based on Levene
Tests of significance are statistical methods used to assess evidence for or against claims based on sample data about a population. Every test of significance involves a null hypothesis (H0) and an alternative hypothesis (Ha). H0 represents the theory being tested, while Ha represents what would be concluded if H0 is rejected. A test statistic is computed and compared to a critical value to either reject or fail to reject H0. Type I and Type II errors can occur. Steps in hypothesis testing include stating hypotheses, selecting a significance level and test, determining decision rules, computing statistics, and interpreting the decision. Hypothesis tests are used to answer questions about differences in groups or claims about populations.

Chapter 12: Analysis of Variance
This multi-paragraph document discusses multi-sample hypothesis testing concerning mean values from three or more populations. It specifically addresses comparing the mean milk yields of Borana cows under three different feeding treatments: grazing alone, grazing with hay supplementation, and grazing with concentrate supplementation. The document provides the data collected from 15 cows, randomly assigned to the three feeding groups. It then outlines the steps to conduct a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) to test if the mean milk yields differ significantly between the feeding groups, stating the null and alternative hypotheses, calculating the F-statistic test value to quantify differences between group means relative to within-group variability, and interpreting the results to determine whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
This document provides an overview of various statistical tests for comparing variables, including t-tests, ANOVA, MANOVA, ANCOVA, and MANCOVA. It defines each test and provides examples of their proper usage. T-tests are used to compare two groups on a continuous variable, including paired and unpaired, parametric and non-parametric versions. ANOVA and MANOVA are used to compare three or more groups and two or more dependent variables, respectively. ANCOVA and MANCOVA control for covariates/confounding variables in one-way and two-way designs with single or multiple dependent variables. Examples and best practices are given for selecting and conducting each type of test.
A hypothesis is a prediction about the outcome of an experiment. Hypothesis testing uses sample data to evaluate the credibility of a hypothesis. The null hypothesis predicts that the independent variable will have no effect on the dependent variable, while the alternative hypothesis predicts it will have an effect. Researchers conduct statistical tests to either reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis based on whether the sample data is consistent with it.
This document discusses the process of testing hypotheses. It begins by defining hypothesis testing as a way to make decisions about population characteristics based on sample data, which involves some risk of error. The key steps are outlined as:
1) Formulating the null and alternative hypotheses, with the null hypothesis stating no difference or relationship.
2) Computing a test statistic based on the sample data and selecting a significance level, usually 5%.
3) Comparing the test statistic to critical values to either reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Examples are provided to demonstrate hypothesis testing for a single mean, comparing two means, and testing a claim about population characteristics using sample data and statistics.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...Leonel Morgado
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

4. Multiplicity: Simultaneous Inference Problem
If 𝛼 = 0.05, each pairwise
comparison has 5% chance of
doing wrong rejection.
Overall error can be
significantly larger than the
nominal 𝛼
Type I error chance increases
For 10 comparisons, chance of type
I error = 1 − 0.9510
= 𝟒𝟎. 𝟏%
Type I error : wrong rejection
Type II error : wrong acceptance
4
5. Fixing Multiplicity
Fix α very small so that overall type I error rate falls below the
pre-specified value (5%)
For the 10 comparison test, 𝛼 = 0.005
Decreasing α increases the chance of Type II error rate and
decreases the power of the test as well (Trade Off)

6. Techniques of Multiple Comparison
Some, of a wide number of methods
Fisher’s Pairwise t-test
Fisher’s Least Significant Degree of freedom (LSD)
Tukey’s Honestly Significant Difference (HSD)
Generalized Linearized Hypothesis Testing
6
7. Fisher’s Pairwise t-Test
Assumptions
All data independent and
normally distributed
Variance homogeneity
Analysis in R
pairwise.t.test {stats}
Can be utilized with no adjustment,
Bonferroni adjustment, Holm adjustment
and many…
7
8. Fisher’s Pairwise t-Test (cont’d)
Data: flowers
A subset taken from iris3 data
50 samples of Setosa, Versicolor and Viginica
We are interested in the sepal length of the types
## Type 1 = Setosa
## Type 2 = Versicolor
## Type 3 = Virginica
8
9. Fisher’s Pairwise t-Test (cont’d)
No Adjustment
All pairs are different
Bonferroni Adjustment
Divides the Type I error rate (α) by the
number of tests (in this case, 3).
Overly conservative.
All pairs still different, but with
different p values
9
10. Fisher’s Pairwise t-Test (cont’d)
Holm Adjustment
Sequentially reduce the α value
If there is k hypotheses, the nth
level is given by
𝛼 𝑛 =
𝛼 𝑛𝑜𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙
𝑘 − 𝑛 + 1
Generally considered superior to
Bonferroni adjustment
All pairs still different, but
again with different p values
10
11. Fisher’s LSD
Very powerful for 3 treatment groups
Overall type I error control is poor compared to
the t-Test
## LSD.test{agricolae}
The R package comes with the correction options
as in t-Test (The example here utilizes Holm
correction)
All pairs still different significantly
11
12. Tukey HSD
Assumptions
Independence (within and among the groups)
Groups are normal
Within group variance equality
The HSD are calculated from ANOVA
parameters
Works good for unequal groups
All pairs still different significantly
12
13. General Linearized Hypothesis Testing
General approach for null hypotheses on
arbitrary parameters
Each hypothesis is expressed as a linear
combination of all the group (parameter)
All the hypotheses expressed as a matrix
For or case, matrix 𝐾 =
1 0 −1
−1 1 0
0 −1 1
Again, all pairs different significantly
13
14. Comments
The choice of method of method of the
post hoc test depends on the nature of the
problem
Simple, k = 3, Fisher’s LSD
k > 3, variance homogeneity, group
inequality, Tukey HSD
Trying to decrease type I error always
tends to increase type II error and
decrease the power of comparison
(tradeoff)
