THE POWER OF A TEST
By RAFAŁ WAŚKO (Predictive Solutions) The power of a test is the probability of detecting a statistically significant effect when one actually occurs in the population under study. Without adequate test power, we may make a type II error, meaning that the analyst will...
SKEWNESS AND KURTOSIS
By WIKTORIA KORYGA (Predictive Solutions) Kurtosis and skewness are measures of asymmetry that describe such properties as the shape and asymmetry of the distribution under analysis. They provide us with information on how the values of the variables deviate when...
STUDENT T-TESTS
By RAFAŁ WAŚKO (Predictive Solutions) The Student's t-test group is used to compare two groups of results, measured by the arithmetic mean, against each other. WHAT DO THE T-TESTS TEST? These types of tests will be useful to us when we want to determine whether the...
