This journal article gives examples of erroneous beliefs about probability. It specifically examines the belief that a random sample must be representative of the true population.
This journal article describes a set of experiments in which different methods of teaching Bayes' Theorem were compared to each other. The frequency representation of the rule was found to be easier to learn than the probability representation.
This file applies the Cramer-Rao inequality to a binomial random variable to prove that the usual estimator of p is a minimum variance unbiased estimator.
This page contains course notes and homework assignments with solutions for a mathematical statistics class. The course covers statistical inference, probability, and estimation principles.
This page discusses the theory behind the bootstrap. It discusses the empirical distribution function as an approximation of the distribution function. It also introduces the parametric bootstrap.
