  2. Small sample inference for the mean Introducing the t distribution The t distribution When working with small samples and with σ unknown (almost always), the uncertainty of the standard error estimate is addressed by using a new distribution: the t distribution .

  3. Small sample inference for the mean Introducing the t distribution The t distribution When working with small samples and with σ unknown (almost always), the uncertainty of the standard error estimate is addressed by using a new distribution: the t distribution . This distribution also has a bell shape, but its tails are thicker than the normal model’s. Statistics 101 (Thomas Leininger) U4 - L2: t -distribution June 5, 2013 7 / 33

  4. Small sample inference for the mean Introducing the t distribution The t distribution When working with small samples and with σ unknown (almost always), the uncertainty of the standard error estimate is addressed by using a new distribution: the t distribution . This distribution also has a bell shape, but its tails are thicker than the normal model’s. Therefore observations are more likely to fall beyond two SDs from the mean than under the normal distribution. normal t −4 −2 0 2 4 Statistics 101 (Thomas Leininger) U4 - L2: t -distribution June 5, 2013 7 / 33

  50. The t distribution for the difference of two means Diamonds Weights of diamonds are measured in carats. 1 carat = 100 points, 0.99 carats = 99 points, etc. The difference between the size of a 0.99 carat diamond and a 1 carat diamond is undetectable to the naked human eye, but the price of a 1 carat diamond tends to be much higher than the price of a 0.99 diamond. We are going to test to see if there is a difference between the average prices of 0.99 and 1 carat diamonds. In order to be able to compare equivalent units, we divide the prices of 0.99 carat diamonds by 99 and 1 carat diamonds by 100, and compare the average point prices.

  57. The t distribution for the difference of two means Conditions Question What conditions need to be satisfied in order to conduct this hypothesis test using theoretical methods? Point price of one 0.99 carat diamond in the sample should be independent of another, and the point price of one 1 carat diamond should independent of another as well. Point prices of 0.99 carat and 1 carat diamonds in the sample should be independent. Distributions of point prices of 0.99 and 1 carat diamonds should not be extremely skewed.
