Yes – No questions
1. Is the IQ-level of university students above average?
2. Is there a difference between verbal IQ-level of males and females?
3. Can we learn in complete silence better than with a moderately loud music?
4. Is there a relationship between blood pressure and the Tolerance scale of CPI?

The above hypotheses always refer to the population characteristics of the variables studied (expected value, median, etc.)
Only one of them can be true at the same time.
H0, the null hypothesis, can only be true in one single case. The alternative hipotheses can be true in infinite ways.

A procedure for testing theH0: E(X)=100 hypothesis
1. Interval estimation for E(X): C0.95 = (c1; c2).X
c2c1
2. E(X) is likely between c1 and c2.
3. If 100 is also between c1 and c2, keep H0.
4. If c2 < 100, accept H1: E(X) < 100.
5. If c1 > 100, accept H2: E(X) > 100.
100? 100?100?

Testing the H0: E(X) = hypothesis if is unknown
If H0: E(X) = is true, then the test statistic
s n
Xt =
follows a t distribution with df = n -1, provided that X is normal, or n is large. Since |t| < t0,05
with a probability of 95%, |t| t0,05 is very unlikely. If despite this it occurs, it is an evidence against H0, in which case we reject .

Errors in a statistical test If we reject H0:
– Error: false rejection– Name of error: Type I error– Probability: level of significance ()– Effect: test validity
If we keep H0:– Error: false acceptance– Name of error: Type II error– Probability: generally not known ()– Effect: test efficiency

Comparing two variables or populations
1. Is there any difference between verbal and performance IQ-levels at schizophrenics?
2. Is body temperature larger in the morning than in the evening?
3. Is the tolerance level of neurotics smaller than that of psychopaths?
![Page 14: Yes – No questions 1. Is the IQ-level of university students above average? 2. Is there a difference between verbal IQ-level of males and females? 3](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032522/56649d615503460f94a424a4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Comparing two means
Examples: H0: E(VIQ/Sch) = E(PIQ/Sch)
H0: E(Morning temp.) = E(Evening temp.)
H0: E(CPI-Tol/Neurot) = E(CPI-Tol/Ppath)
Often (if X and Y are quantitative):H0: 1 = 2

Case of one population, two variables
Example: comparing VIQ-level and PIQ-level. Solution: Z = VIQ-PIQ, or (only at ratio scaled
variables) Z = Y/X New null hypothesis:
H0: E(Z) = 0 or H0: E(Z) = 1 Statistical test: one sample t-test. Steps: draw a random sample, compute z-scores,
perform one-sample t-test on the Z-sample.

Example: Comparing verbal IQ of males and females.
Null hypothesis: H0: 1 = 2
Sampling: Draw two independent samples from the two populations.
Comput.: Compute sample means and variances:Sample size Mean Variance
Sample 1: n1 x1 var1= (s1)2
Sample 2: n2 x2 var2= (s2)2

Robust statistical tests The Welch-test is a robust version of the
two-sample t-test, because it tests the same null hypothesis with fewer assumptions.
