Module 8: Inference for One Proportion

Module 8: Inference for One Proportion Introduction to Hypothesis Testing Introduction to Hypothesis Testing What you’ll learn to do: Given a claim about a population, construct an appropriate set of hypotheses to test and properly interpret p values and Type I / II errors. Hypothesis testing is part of inference. Given a claim about a population, we will learn to determine the null and alternative hypotheses. We will recognize the logic behind a hypothesis test and how it relates to the P-value as well as recognizing type I and type II errors. These are powerful tools in exploring and understanding data in real-life. CC licensed content, Shared previously - Concepts in Statistics. Provided by: Open Learning Initiative.
