SOCECOL 10 Chapter Notes - Chapter 6: Standard Error, Null Hypothesis, Analysis Of Variance
Document Summary
One way to review research is to ask what results we would expect if we ran the same experiment over and over again. Attempt to understand the properties of all possible samples (population) by looking to understand a particular sample with which we are working: inferential statistics. Assume that the same experiment was run an infinite number of times: each time with a different sample of individuals chosen from the entire population. Probability estimates in the form of p<0. 01 o. If a large number of similar experiments were conducted, we would expect to replicate these results by chance alone (without experimental manipulation) less than 1 time in 1,000. Independent outcomes: the outcome of one thing is not influenced by that of a previous outcome, determining the probability of two independent variables: Multiply the probability of the first by that of the second. Probability (a and b) = probability a x probability b (only if.
