Chapter 9, Case 2
Hypothesis Test on the Mean, Variance Unknown
-
Much more common case than variance known
-
Substitute \(S\) for \(\sigma\)
-
The test statistics is now a \(t\) random variable
Summary of Case 2

Problem 9.3.6



Classical Approach
Hypothesis Test Using R

Normal Probability Plot

\(P\)-values
-
More difficult to calculate since the \(t\)-tables only contain a few quantiles
-
Can use tables to generate bounds on the \(p\)-value
-
Software will provide \(p\)-values
P-values from R

Power Calculations
-
Are much more complicated
-
The true distribution is now a non-central \(t\)
-
Use tables to solve (Chart VII in appendix) or software
Power Calculation using R

Sample Size using R

Case 3. Hypothesis Test on Variance of Normal Population
- The test statistics is a \(\chi^2\) random variable
- The table below summarizes the three possible hypothesis tests. The rejection regions are clearly shown in Figure 9-17 on page 222

Problem taken from Ostle, Turner, Hicks and McElrath (1996). Engineering Statistics: The Industrial Experience. Duxbury Press.

Statistics for Problem 7.108

Classical Approach
Problem 7.108 Plots

Problem 7.108 Plots

Problem 7.108 Shapiro-Wilks Test

p-values
-
Very similar to the case for the mean of a normal population with variance unknown
-
Difficult to calculate since the \(\chi^2\)-tables only contain a few quantiles
-
Can use tables to generate bounds on the \(p\)-value
-
Software will provide \(p\)-values
Test on Variance using R (EnvStats)

Power Calculations
-
Can be done with OC curves found in Table VIIi--n
-
Can be done in software such as R
Test on Standard Deviation
- What about test on standard deviation?

Case 4. Hypothesis Test on a Population Proportion
- The test statistics for the hypothesis test is

Problem 9.5.2

Problem 9.5.2 Classic Approach
Power Calculations
- For the two-sided alternative hypothesis
- If the alternative is \(H_1:p<p_0\)
- and finally if the alternative hypothesis is \(H_1:p>p_0\)
Sample Size
- Sample size requirements to satisfy type II(\(\beta\)) error constraints for a two-tailed hypothesis test is given by
-
For a sample size for a one-sided test substitute \(z_\alpha\) for \(z_{\alpha/2}\).
-
Problem 9.95
Testing for Goodness of Fit
-
Material is presented in section 9-7 of your textbook
-
Procedure determines if the sample data is from a specified underlying distribution
-
Procedure uses a \(\chi^2\) distribution
-
Example 9-12 presents a \(\chi^2\) goodness of fit test for a Poisson example
-
Example 9-13 presents a \(\chi^2\) goodness of fit test for a normal example
Procedure
-
Collect a random sample of size \(n\) from a population with an unknown distribution,
-
Arrange the \(n\) observations in a frequency distribution containing \(k\) classes
-
Calculate the observed frequency in each class \(O_i\),
-
From the hypothesized distribution, calculate the expected frequency in class \(i\), denoted \(E_i\) (if \(E_i\) is small combine classes)
-
Calculate the test statistic
- Reject the null hypothesis if the calculated value of the test statistic \(\chi^2_0>\chi^2_{\alpha,k-p-1}\) where \(p\) is the number of parameters in the hypothesized distribution
Example 9.12, part 1

Example 9.12, part 2

Chapter 9 Summary
- You should be prepared to work any practice problems assigned: Cases 1-3 with three different alternatives
- All other information is conceptual knowledge that can be questioned with multiple choice
- Name 3 ways to test if data is from a normal distribution
