“Accept” the Null Hypothesis by Keith M. Bower‚ M.S. and James A. Colton‚ M.S. Reprinted with permission from the American Society for Quality When performing statistical hypothesis tests such as a one-sample t-test or the AndersonDarling test for normality‚ an investigator will either reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis‚ based upon sampled data. Frequently‚ results in Six Sigma projects contain the verbiage “accept the null hypothesis‚” which implies that the null hypothesis has been proven

STA9708 Regression Analysis: Literacy rates and Poverty rates As we are aware‚ poverty rate serve as an indicator for a number of causes in the world. Poverty rates are linked with infant mortality‚ education‚ child labor and crime etc. In this project‚ I will apply the regression analysis learned in the Statistics course to study the relationship between literacy rates and poverty rates among different states in USA. In my study‚ the poverty rates will be the independent variable (x) and literacy

1. The first step in evaluating a regression model is to determine whether the sign of the estimated slope term makes sense. The second step is to test whether or not the slope term is significantly different from zero. The appropriate statistical test to determine this is a t-test since the true regression error variance is generally unknown. The third check of regression is to evaluate what percent of the variation in the dependent variable is explained by variation in the independent variable

TITLE: Zero Ground- Zero: Towards Innovative Vertical Extension TITLE: Zero Ground- Zero: Towards Innovative Vertical Extension 1.0 BACKGROUND A hundred and twenty- five years ago‚ not a single nation was as urban as the world today. European countries are one of the earliest countries which experience the most rapid urban growth especially after the Industrial revolution in 19th century. This event is very influential in the history of town planning whereby it generates the development of

Chapter 4. Hypothesis testing The main aim of the module is to familiarize students with the theoretical knowledge of hypothesis testing and then train them in applying theory to economic practice. After completing this module‚ students will be familiar with: the procedure of hypothesis testing; the possible outcomes in hypothesis testing; the difference between significant and nonsignificant statistical findings. After completing this module‚ students will be able to:
