    consecutive points falling on one side of the centerline When the process is in statistical control‚ find the false alarm probability (Type-I error) for each case. The corresponding probability measures are obtained from the Normal table as P(3 " Z) = 0.00135 P(2 " Z) = 0.02275 P(1 " Z) = 0.1587 Solution: ! i) Use the Binomial distribution to ! calculate the probability measures. ! 3! 3! P(Y ! 2 n = 3‚ p = 0.02275) = (0.02275)2 (1" 0.02275) + (0.02275)3 = 0.00153 2!1! 3!0! Type-1

    Sampling is the use of a subset of the population to represent the whole population. Probability sampling‚ or random sampling‚ is a sampling technique in which the probability of getting any particular sample may be calculated. Nonprobability sampling does not meet this criterion and should be used with caution. Nonprobability sampling techniques cannot be used to infer from the sample to the general population. The advantage of nonprobability sampling is its lower cost compared to probability sampling

    Theoretical vs. Empirical Probability Probability- describes the chance that an uncertain event will occur. Empirical Probability - estimate that the event will happen based on how often the event occurs after collecting the data or running an experiment. It is based specifically on direct observation or experiences. Empirical Probability Formula P(E) = probability that an event‚ E‚ will occur. Top = number of ways the specific event occurs. Bottom = number of ways the experiment

    Sampling and Sampling Methods There are many research questions we would like to answer that involve populations that are too large to consider learning about every member of the population. How have wages of European workers changed over the past ten years? Questions such as this are important in understanding the world around us‚ yet it would be impractical‚ if not impossible‚ to measure the wages of all European workers. Generally‚ in answering such questions‚ social scientists examine a fraction
