This site discusses types of data, stem and leaf plots, mean and median, histograms, and barcharts. Exercises are also provided, as well as their corresponding answers.
This Compendium describes distributions appropriate for the modeling of random data. The number of distributions (56) is large, including: 1. Continuous distributions (30), (Symmetric (11) and Skewed (19)) 2. Continuous binary mixtures(17), 3. Discrete distributions (5), 4. Discrete binary mixtures (4), All formulas are shown in their fully-parametrized form, not the standard form. Many of the formulas given are seldom described. Random variate generation is included where feasible.
The 29-item attitudinal scale consists of two subscales: attitude toward the field of statistics (20 items) and attitude toward the course (9 items). Students are asked to respond to how they currently feel about a statement (i.e., "I feel that statistics will be useful to me in my profession") using a 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree) response scale.
This applet performs a hypothesis test for the mean of a single normal population, variance known. Users set the hypothesized mean, true mean, variance, and appropriate alternative hypothesis. The applet plots a representative distribution under the given values with power shaded in blue and significance level shaded in red.
This PowerPoint lecture presentation discusses comparing the means of two dependent populations using the paired T-test and defines the concepts of this hypothesis test. The original presentation is available for downloading.
This PowerPoint presentation evaluates type I errors in civil trials compared to criminal trials as well as provides an example of a hypothesis test and its components. The original presenation is available for download.
This PowerPoint lecture presenation explains confidence intervals for a mean when using a small sample. It discusses the t-distribution, compares the t-statistic to the z-statistic, and provides an example of a small sample confidence interval. The original presentation is available for download.
This PowerPoint presentation dicusses general concepts of confidence intervals and interprets confidence intervals for a mean, difference in two means, and the relative risk. The original presenation is available for download.
This site provides numerous datasets for graphical display topics including linear, exponential, logistic, power rule, periodic, and other bivariate scatterplots, histograms, and other univariate data. Each data set is accompanied with a description, file format options, and a sample graph.
This is a virtual spinner applet, which allows you to change spinner regions and the number of spins. It records the results and displays the data in a histogram.
